Marinated smoked shrimps

[sandyut]

Tried smoking some shrimp skewers last night on a whim. OMG what a great success. I was worried they would cook so fast they wouldn't pick up much smoke flavor- wrong.

I used this recipe and marinated about 3 hours, then set the rec teq on 180 for about 15-20, then up to 300. took about 30 min total to cook. not 100% on the time as I was hawking them as not to make them into rubber. but holy cow were they delish!

I been wanting a new shrimp recipe. Will give this a go. Did you leave shrimp in when turned heat up?

Your shrimp look amazing. Just picked up 5# of fresh Key West pink shrimp for $50. They have the heads on, but are at least 6” long. Gonna boil down the heads for shrimp bisque & make some shrimp cocktail with the tails, then maybe grill a few too! This guy drove up from the keys, and was selling them out of the back of his truck. I have bought from him before & if you have ever had Gulf pink shrimp, you know what I’m talking about.

Thanks. I have 20# of head on plate frozen shrimp (16/18 count) coming from Louisiana Direct Seafood and am looking for recipes. Looks like some gumbo and shrimp stock and now this looks great.

Lookin' good! Do you think the tomato paste was in the recipe to round out the basil & garlic flavors.... or was it there to add some sweetness like when some sauces call for a little ketchup?

Love how these shrimp look. And I haven't had grilled shrimp in a couple of months now. Thanks for the recipe.
