11 Reviews of Barbecue Shrimp

From: kayceenjoey

On Jun 22, 2004

The best barbecue shrimp I have ever made or tasted, without a doubt. My husband and I worked together to make this one and it turned out better than our highest hopes. Very spicy in flavor and comparable to what we have eaten in New Orleans.Thanks--this shrimp is awesome.

    We had this for dinner tonight and absolutely loved it! You are right, I don't see how it would feed 4. Just my husband and I "licked the bowl clean". The flavors were wonderful and spicy, just as we like. Thanks for submitting this. It is now one of our favorites.

    Oh, this was wonderful! I used 2 pounds of shrimp and peeled them first, leaving the tail on. DS is 6 and, well, I didn't want to have to explain shells and legs to him! I did tone down the creole seasoning a bit, for DS, but next time I'll add a bit more. We all loved it, and my son asked for seconds!

    My husband absolutely loved this recipe. I thought it was wonderful and easy to make. Wonderful with rice, too. The spice was great and left a tingle in your mouth. Delicious!

    Now did I have a nice lunch today! I turned the shrimp after 5 minutes which was probably worthwhile to soak the sauce into both side. I used eight U8 Tiger Prawns and managed to get through the whole lot.

    This was outstanding. Really, I can't believe how good this shrimp tasted and how easy it was to make. Spicy, buttery, and oh so yummy. We mopped up the sauce with bread and it was pure heaven. Gonna make this again next week. Thanks.

    This was very good. Spicy without being "too much". I almost always make scampi with my shrimp, but this recipe will be in the rotation now. It is very rich, but with a side of boiled new potatoes, and green salad, it was a perfectly balanced meal. Thanks NurseDi

    This is great but I have to go easy on the Creole Seasoning, which I made from The Best Creole/Cajun Seasoning Mix, because my kids can't handle too many spices, but i think I over-did it on the butter. I'll cut back next time. Does anyone think melting the butter prior and mixing it with the sauce would be ok?

    I've noticed before that the recipes from this cook are some of the best and this one is no exception. We really enjoyed this, only adding about a tablespoon of tabasco to make it great. Actually put it all together about 3 hours before cooking to let the flavors soak in. Thanks for sharing.

    Really good, tastes just likie the BBQ Shrimp you eat in New Orleans. We like hot and spicy boiled red potatoes with this and lots of good bread for dipping in the butter sauce! Yummmmmmm!!
