Here is an easy but wildly tasty one….get ready…Grilled Shrimp with Spice of Life BBQ Sauce. Get a handful of 6 to 8 inch bamboo skewers and soak them in water for an hour or so. Take three or four 10 to 12 count peeled shrimp and gently skewer them onto the bamboo. Brush a mixture of olive oil and your favorite rub or spices onto the shrimp and let them sit covered in the refrigerator for about an hour. Heat your grill up and place the shrimp on the grill on medium heat…you should need about 5 to 7 minutes on each side to get them cooked properly. About 5 minutes before you pull them off the grill, coat the shrimp with Spice of Life BBQ Sauce on one side. Immediately turn them over on your grill, maybe even kicking up the heat a bit to get a light char on them. Coat the side facing you…while beating away your friends and family that are trying to get their hands on these morsels of perfection…and turn them to the heat for about a minute to caramelize the Spice of Life BBQ Sauce on the grilled shrimp. Prepare entrance music as you walk this grilled work of art to the serving table and dig in before any of your friends and family can. Another trick with this recipe is to hide about 10 of the skewers in your refrigerator until all of your company leaves…but you didn’t hear that one from us.
Please come see Rob and Holly at the Sanford Farmers market on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Getting to the Sanford Farmers Market is a great little ride up from Apopka through the many greenhouses and growers that give Apopka the title of Indoor Foliage Capital of the World. Pick up a few Sweet Life Sauce Company sauces there or through our website. Both Holly and Rob can give you some wonderful pairings for Sweet Life Sauce Company sauces and ideas for dazzling your friends and family.
As they say at Sweet Life Sauce Company…all is well in Apopka land!
