Saute garlic in olive oil and butter over medium heat until translucent, being careful not to brown it, about 2 minutes.2

I was attracted to this recipe because my husband and I love shrimp and buffalo/ hot wings. It was super quick and easy to make. The heat was good. In fact it surprised me. I would like to have a thicker sauce or one that clings to the shrimp more. Next time I will see what I come up with. Thanks for sharing!

Delicious! I used less butter & no olive oil, and subbed garlic paste for the cloves (yep, pantry a bit bare!). Spicier than I thought it would be. Broiled, open-faced, on sourdough w/ melted cheddar on top & served w/ a side of ranch dressing. My husband thought this was a terrific Friday-night dinner.

These were very tasty. I sprinkled the shrimp with a lime pepper blend and added a little blue cheese dressing. I didn't use the barbeque sauce either, also adding a touch more hot sauce.
