Christmas Smoke with Q-view

[k5yac]

I was to tired to post after last nights festivities, but regardless of the blizzard, dinner went off without a hitch.

It was cold out, but fortunately the gusty winds were from the NW... my covered porch is on the the east side of the house, so I barely noticed it.

Smoked spares with Jeff's rub, grilled corn on the cob, grilled and glazed shrimp, smoked garlic on pumpernickel bread and a salad.
This is what the wife wanted for Christmas... I was happy to oblige.

I just use a mix of ketchup, mustard, worchestershire sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar and diced onion. I don't have any exact quantities to offer... I just kind of throw the ingredients into a small pot and simmer for a few minutes. Brush or spoon on, grill for a few minutes, turn, brush or spoon on more, grill, repeat until shrimp are cooked. They are pretty sticky, but not overly sweet.

If I had to guess, I'd say...

1/4 C brown sugar
1/2 C ketchup
2 Tbsp mustard
2 Tbsp worchestershire sauce
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp fine chopped onion

I know that is a lot of "2 Tbsp" stuff, but I think those are probably good ballpark ratios. Simmer in a small pot for several minutes and apply to shrimp before and during grilling. I usually don't apply any for the last couple of minutes of cooking, which allows the sauce to get thick and sticky on the surface.

I peel, devein and cook jumbos (10/15 ct), which usually take 8 - 10 minutes since I open the lid to turn and baste so frequently. Even though I don't use any real measurements on the sauce, they turn out real good every time we've tried em. Hope you like it!
