A nice modernized version of the old classic shrimp cocktail. Watch 'em disappear!

SERVES 4 , 1 batch (change servings and units)

Ingredients

For the rub

For the shrimp

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (give or take)
  • 2 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (U-25s ( I buy them peeled and deveined)

Directions

  1. 1
    In a 1 gal plastic food bag place shrimp and olive oil, toss to coat, sprinkle enough rub to lightly coat the shrimp.
  2. 2
    The bag should look dark red.
  3. 3
    Refrigerate for 1-4 hrs, the longer you wait the hotter they'll be.
  4. 4
    Light the grill and while it's heating place shrimp on skewers.
  5. 5
    When coals are very hot, clean the area that the shrimp will be on and rub with a bit of canola oil on a rag (use a mitt please).
  6. 6
    Immediately place shrimp on greased grill for 2-3 minutes, turn and cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. 7
    Remove from skewers and serve hot.
  8. 8
    No dipping sauce required.
  9. 9
    This rub works well on chicken wings too!

I didn't have garlic salt on hand so I replace it by sea salt, it was soooo good!

    Delicious. I halved the recipe. These are some of the best shrimp I've ever eaten.

    I found nothing in the ingredients to make this dish spicy or hot as predicted in the instructions. I let them marinate all day (about 7 hours). Tasted the marinade, no heat! So I added about 2 teaspoons of cayenne (it could have used even more IMO) These were a GIANT HIT. I used a grill basket that I just sat on a plate in the middle of the table and had cocktail forks on the side.

    Excellent! I only marinated for about an hour and the flavor was soooo good. I can't wait to try them again, letting them marinate for longer. I grilled these in a grill pan, so it was even quicker. Thanks for sharing.
