BBQ Coconut Shrimp and Andouille
The planned dinner tonight was to include Shrimp, Andouille sausage and rice or beans, semi-Jambalaya but not quite. Plans changed and the shrimp turned into BBQ Coconut Shrimp with the sausage and rice as sides. Last minute changes sometimes work out well. Nothing like a craving for Coconut Shrimp to alter dinner plans.
The breading stations: Flour, Beer Batter, Coconut, a pound of 16/20 Shrimp - All set and ready for a brief time in the fridge - I had planned to make this on the Blackstone but was running low on propane so the Lodge Pizza pan on the Goldens' will do nicely - After grilling for a few minutes on both sides, it's tails up - Ready for plating - Dinner is served - Almost forgot the Pineapple Mango Salsa - This was amazingly quick and easy to prepare. Grilling it on in a thin layer of oil on the Lodge pizza pan was a lot better than losing coconut through the grates. I could have shallow fried it in a skillet but this turned out quite well. And of course deep frying could have been an option, but I dislike doing so. The coconut toasted up with a nice crunch and the flavors were excellent. Although I've prepared something similar before, this one's a keeper. Thanks for checking out tonight's dinner! Regards, -lunchman

Thanks all.
The question came up yesterday when reviewing my recipe and a few others online to make sure I wasn't omitting something - unsweetened or sweetened coconut? I had some sweetened that I'd used in holiday baking, but a few recipes called for unsweetened. Since I needed other items, off to the market for a bag of Bob's Red Mill unsweetened. When putting this together my wife noticed the coconut was unsweetened and wasn't sure it would be the same as previous cooks I've done with sweetened. So I added a touch of powdered sugar just to be safe. It turns out that I could tell the difference, preferring the sweetened coconut. Just wondering what others have used when you make this dish.

Leidy's. I've had it in my freezer for a while. Seems like a decent brand, but a bit too much heat for my wife.
