It does look delicious. Just needs some tweaking. BBQ shrimp is served in many restaurants, so I'm sure maybe there was an ingredient you could pinpoint that made the taste "odd" for you and maybe leave it out. Maybe marinate in some of the sauce and reduce the rest for dipping and then broil or grill. And who doesn't love a light salad on the side.

Not just tossing it all, but I admit that hurt...but the beauty of the dish...and we couldn't eat it.<br /><br />Kim - thank you...the salad was pretty good. And at least the photos came out :-)<br /><br />Drick - I did not cover it with foil. Maybe that was part of the problem. It was a strange taste combo for us too.

Shrimp is a five minute cook...<br /><br />I wonder if they actually made the dish, or just made it up without cooking prior to publicationInspired by eRecipeCardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09104173871760979364noreply@blogger.com
