This recipe really doesn't need to be written as it is too simple, but boy is it a great appetizer.
Ingredients
- 2lb Large Raw Shrimp
- 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
Directions
| Step 1 | |
 Soak skewers in water. This isn't as necessary when smoking but is crucial if you will be grilling the shrimp. | |
| Step 2 | |
 If using frozen shrimp, thaw in cold water. | |
| Step 3 | |
 Peel shrimp, leaving the tail on if desired. Rinse and drain the water and pat dry with paper towels. | |
| Step 4 | |
 Sprinkle shrimp with the Old Bay seasoning. | |
| Step 5 | |
| Preheat smoker to 225 degrees. | |
| Step 6 | |
 Skewer the shrimp using two skewers per shrimp so it is easier to flip. Be sure to leave room around each shrimp for the smoke. | |
| Step 7 | |
 Place the shrimp skewers directly on the smoker, being sure to leave room between the skewers. Smoke for 20 minutes at 225 degrees. | |
| Step 8 | |
 Remove from the smoker and serve. | |
