Miz t. is peeling the shrimp right now. Local crustaceans right off the boat and socked away in the freezer. 14-16 counts. Good sized. $3.50 a pound. Eat your heart out.
Marinate in some Italian salad dressing for a half hour or so. Then to the grill*.
Throw a double handful on a Caesar salad. Some garlic bread. Oh yeah.
*On grilling shrimp: Don't do like I did the first time I tried it. I put each shrimp directly on the grill. For the next 10 minutes it was all assholes and elbows, as they say. Turn a shrimp, turn a shrimp, turn a shrimp, turn a shrimp, turn a shrimp, ad infinitum.
Get one of those flat grilling baskets. Lay all the shrimp in it. If you're careful ('meticulous'/OCD?) spoonlike, head-to-tail, head-to-tail, you can get about 4 dozen in a single basket. THEN you can turn them all at once with a flick of the wrist. Yer welcome. ;-)
