Shrimp: Tennessee Barbecued Shrimp
Source of Recipe
From "Jack Daniel's Cookbook"
Recipe Introduction
"Our Tennessee Barbecued Shrimp is a New Orleans-style bbq shrimp that's not barbecued at all. It's shrimp slathered with a garlicky, buttery, spicy sauce perked up with a little Jack Daniel's. Crusty French bread will be important for sopping. Barbecued shrimp is a great dish when you want folks to lighten up and get to know each other a little better. Serve the shrimp in a big bowl in the middle of the table, pass the bread, and go to town. A little creamy slaw or a spoonful of creamy grits are nice on the side, but resist distractions."
