  1. Finally got around to making these and WOW!!!!......I can't believe I waited so long.......pretty much followed the recipe as is and they were perfect!!!!......and so easy..........really........even worth having to peel them!!.......Served them with Tyler Florence's grape tomato and gorgonzola dressing salad which was the perfect side and the next day.......we cut up the shrimp and added it to the salad and OH MY!!!!!!!!........this is truly an amazing dish Shadow......thanks for sharing!!
     
  2. 5 + stars!! Full of flavor!!
     
  3. Four people, 3lbs. of shrimp, 8 beers & vanilla ice cream requested afterwards. I followed the recipe as posted. At 5mins of boiling the shrimp the tails were turning pink. I continued to cook till 14mins. They were juicy & tender. They were "spicy" but no too spicy that we were unable to finish them off. I thought I might have a little heart burn due to the spice. Not a problem at all!!!! We really enjoyed these. It was a very easy recipe to make. I served them cold. I will be making this often!!!!! Thank you Shadow this is a great recipe!
     
  4. All I can say is,Laissez les Bon Temp Roulez!! And pass me another cold beer!This is awesome! Spicy hot and perfect. Thanks Shadow, for taking me back home with this! It is awesome! Ok, I already said that, but I could not say it enough!
     
  5. Too salty and way too long on the shrimp. I boiled mine for 10 minutes, which is less than the suggested time.
