not sure if I'm supposed to post the recipe here or let others check the book out for themselves.

I gathered the ingredients... hickory Q sauce, dry crab boil, pepper, hot sauce, butter and white wine.. lemon juice ( I didn't have a fresh lemon)

I layered the shrimp, brushed them with the Q sauce and sprinkled them with crab boil, pepper and hot sauce, then dotted with butter and added the wine to the bottom of the skillet..

Smoked with hickory for about 45 minutes at 225.. stirred every 15 minutes or so..

Served with a cold beer and lots of napkins...

I make New Orleans style BBQ shrimp on the smoker and this was completely different.. The hickory Q sauce stood out the most. At first I couldn't taste much smoke but when I came back later to try more...the smokey flavor was there.
I loved them. :-D
Thanks again for sharing your book Ash!!


Thanks for looking.
 
It looks good, but come on already, am I gonna have to deliver some blessed fruit to you, or what?????? If just doesn't seem right to be looking at your food without some fruit in the picture...I'm gonna say a special prayer for you tonight, my friend!
 
I'm pretty much addicted to BBQ shrimp, but I've never tried 'em on the smoker! And that recipe looks like a whole different twist. Now all I have to do is get a second mortgage so's I can afford some shrimp..... Thanks, Jeanie!
 
That is a really great looking skillet of shrimp, nice size too, mouth o' watering:thumb:
 
Oh my gosh! I've got to do that this weekend and I'll make some good ol' cheesy grits and jalapenos to go with them fancy shrimps.
 
Thank you friends! They were tasty. You can kick the heat up as high as you like on these...they really went well with the cold beer. :-D

Okay... I'll do that! Thanks Mike! :thumb:

Looking Scrumptious Jeanie! The recipe is free online. If this is the one.

Guerry..that's the exact recipe! Thanks!!

Looks really good. Do you think it would enhance the flavor to use easy peel shrimp?
Thanks qndummy, I have no idea if they would enhance the flavor, but it would be worth a try. :-D


Thanks again everyone...
