If you like garlic and shrimp, then I think you will enjoy this. We had this at a party, and couldn't get enough of it. I told a friend about how good it was, and she offered me this recipe. I make this often, we still can't get enough of it.

Neither my DH or I could eat this. Shrimp is my favorite food, so I was sad to see it all go to waste. I'm not sure if it's a typo in the recipe, but the juice of three lemons is WAY too much. My DH said it was like eating a lemon...he took one bite and couldn't eat any more. Also, the hot butter cooked the shrimp, not the grill. By the time I grilled them, they were way overdone. Sorry, I won't make this again.

    This was AWESOME!!! I actually cooked it in an iron skillet then placed them on a baking sheet and put them under the broiler for just a bit. When the weather is nice I'll definitely be putting them on the grill! Served them with a baked potato and salad. Also made a red sauce as suggested in one of the reviews for this recipe (3/4 cup ketchup and lots of horseradish.) YUM!!! Thank you!

    Tasty stuff! The lemon juice gave the shrimp a nice tang. I am a garlic lover so next time I will double the amount of garlic.

    I served this as an appetizer for a birthday party and they didn't last long. The shrimp were great tasting on their own, but I think they were even tastier when I decided to serve them with my homemade cocktail sauce (3/4 cup ketchup with lots of horseradish). YUM!
