I've never heard of sides at an oyster roast.

I would think that red potatoes and corn on the cob will already be in the roast.

How about a Caesar salad?

An oyster roast ain't a clam bake.

Me either!!

The only thing I've ever taken to an oyster roast is a garden glove and an oyster knife.

Don't forget either.

Wife makes a tasty vinegar-based slaw that goes over really well. She found a recipe online (southern style slaw..something like that) and modified it, reducing the sugar(replaced with agave) and adding fresh jalapeno and some other changes.

Depends on whether the oyster roast is kosher.
