Expanding my horizons.
Lets say I pretended shrimp had feathers (see signature) and I wanted to grill some on the egg. What would I buy, how would I prep them, and how would I cook them? Also wanted to do sweet potatoes and steak. How about timing. Trying to show wife thanks for the egg.

I think you dont want anything smaller than 30 count, i would probably go 18-25 count
devein short marinade in oil, acid(wine, oj, lime jiuce, vinegar..whatever you like) spices/garlic my opinion is you clean the legs off but leave the shell on hot fire, 30-45 seconds per side...depends on the size count of the shrimp |

Never did them in the smoker. But my son always helps me when I grill them. He deveins them and shells them. I put them on and grill till pink. We have a special bowl that we put butter, lemon,beer and trappys hot sauce. As the shrimp cook the butter recipe melts on the grill and we then dip our shrimp right off the grill into the butter.
That is the only reason he helps me. He gets first crack. When we bring them the rest in the house, my wife always asks me if we had any yet. We say no. But I think the butter that has dribbled down the front of our shirts gives it away. I some times sprinkle paprika on them before I grill them. Norco, Just don't over cook the shrimp.

It's very easy to over cook them, so what ever you decide to do, don't kill them. You could try a jerk marinade and then skewer them and grill then for a few minutes. That's a great prep.

i get the 16-20 count frozen easy peels. peel, marinate for no more than 4 hours in extra virgin olive oil, garlic, black pepper, parsley, and sometime a dizzy pig rub. cook till they turn pink and no more. a fresh horseradish cocktail sauce is always nice

I used to love grilled shrimp. Then I tasted smoked shrimp. There is no better way this side of heaven to prepare the creatures!! Follow the steps already given but smoke for a few minutes instead of grilling for a few seconds. ........stan

Do yourself a favor, dont buy your seafood from your grocer. Find a local fish monger and get your shrimp from him. Im telling you its worth the extra $$$$. You will be amazed at the quality and freshness of Fish Market vs. Grocery Store.

How about Bacon wrapped Shrimp? Get some large ones and toss them with a Garlic/Lime marinade, wrap with half a piece of bacon, skewer and grill. Use 2 bamboo skewers to keep them from turning. Sweet potatoes you can grill or smoke for a couple hours until tender. Serve with the steak of choice!
