I think you've got the real deal, but let's wait on some more seasoned opinions. I don't like oysters, and when i find them in the woods they're always slimy and nasty, so I don't pay too much attention to them, and am thus a little bit inexperienced with IDing them.

Yep, look like oysters to me too.  Almost positive.  And oysters like elm.  Soooo, are they buggy?  I can't tell if they are hypsizygus or pleurotus though.  I'm guessing pleurotus.:smile2:

I cured them in the refrigerator,re hydrated them for about 15 minutes then cooked them in some stew.Microwaved til every thing boiled then reduced the power to 50% for 15 minutes.:earth:

Not bad at all!The texture of the cap was firm and the sliced stem sections had the density of a good steak.:tongue2:

I couldn't tell much about the flavor because of the other stronger tastes of the pork and veggies.:confused:

I found another clump on a hack berry that had begun to decay.No bugs at all.The stems were still firm but the caps had begun to soften,sag and the gills had BB size holes in them.:banghead:

I thought it unusual to see them on a hack berry.I thought hack berry trees had anti fungal properties?:crazy: :confused:

It is Pleurotus, the greyish lilac spore print eliminates Hypsizygus.

Keep an eye on that log/tree it will fruit again and again year after year till it's all used up.
you could even drag it home if you want to keep a close eye on it and water it once in a while.
keep it somewhere shady.

I've a good idea where it is but haven't put the leg work in to relocate it yet.

It is in a fairly well shaded place that is damp almost all year so I'm hopeful for more good foraging.:D
