Honey Lemon Shrimp

Tonight was shrimp night.  We tried two different recipes and both were very good.  Of course you can never go wrong with shrimp on the egg.

Shrimp Recipe 1
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds 16-20 count raw shrimp
4 tablespoons honey
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
A few grinds black pepper
2 teaspoons Dizzy Pig Tsunami Spin

Peel and de-vein the shrimp and blot dry. Whisk together all remaining ingredients.

Marinate the shrimp in 2/3 of the marinade for about 30 minutes while the BGE comes up to 350°.
Reserve about 1/3 of the marinade for brushing the shrimp as they finish.

Grill the shrimp direct at 350°-375° on raised grid (skewers optional). Cook approximately 3-4
minutes per side or until they curl up. The honey will caramelize a little and give a nice sweet crunch
that is offset by the tang of the lemon juice and Dijon mustard. As the shrimp finish, brush or drizzle
them with the reserved marinade mixture and lightly dust with additional Tsunami Spin on each
side.
