My Dad made great Barbecued Shrimp, but he made up the recipe every time he did it.  I need a recipe, so I can repeat it if it is good.  This is Good! Thanks, Darlene.

  • 2 lbs. of  shrimp
  • 1 ½ sticks of butter, melted
  • ¼ C. white wine
  • 3 T. Worcestershire sauce
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 6 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 T. liquid crab boil
  • 1 T. hot sauce
  • 2 bay leaves, crushed
  • ½ t. each of oregano, rosemary, and  thyme
  • Loaf of crispy New Orleans style French bread
Directions:
  1. Mix all ingredients (except the shrimp and butter) in a shallow baking dish
  2. Add the shrimp and mix the with the liquid
  3. Place in the refrigerator for several hours to marinate
  4. When ready to cook; Preheat oven to 425 degrees
  5. Add the melted butter to the dish and stir
  6. Bake for 20 minutes
