Smoked shrimp is a great way to prepare seafood. This tasty dish is a great way of using up leftover shellfish. For this delicious recipe, rub the shrimp lightly with olive oil and seasonings. Place them on smoker racks. You can line the racks with aluminum foil so they don't fall through. A small wood chip can be used to add some wood flavor to the shrimp. Once smoked the shrimp will turn pink, and you can eat them.
To make smoked shrimp you need to defrost them. Peel and dice the shrimp. Combine all the dry ingredients in one jar. Shake the container well. Toast the butter or olive fat in a foil-pan. Spread the dry rub on the shrimp and place them in the jar. You can save the mixture for another day if the shrimp aren't covered with the dry rub. The skewers should be placed in the smoker once the grill is done.
When the smoker is ready for use, add the shrimp to your cooking rack. The wood should be about 225F or higher. The shrimp should be cooked to opaque pink. If the shrimp are cooked too long, they will become tough and dry. Serve with your favorite barbecue sauce or seafood cocktail sauce. For a more authentic smoked shrimp experience, smoke them on the grill instead of the smoker. Wood chips can be used to add smokey flavor to your dish.
You can use any type of shrimp to make this dish. You can choose a large batch (16-20) to make simple smoked shrimp. This will yield fewer shrimp per pound for a smaller pound. A larger pound of shrimp will require longer time in the smoker. Juicy, orange-colored shrimp that has been grilled should be a hefty weight. It should be at 120 degrees Fahrenheit inside.
You should peel smoked shrimp before you serve it. A shrimp smoker is a good option if you don't have the time to remove the shell. The resultant smoked shrimp tastes amazing and gives a rustic touch to any meal. You can make the smoked shrimp at your home even if it's not possible to smoke. This process takes only a few minutes and the shrimp should have been thoroughly deveined before starting.
Make sure you prepare all ingredients before grilling shrimp. Before cooking, the shrimp should be allowed to marinate in the marinade for several hours. Shrimp can become dry and rubbery if they are overcooked. If you don't have a smoker, you can still make this dish by using a liquid smoke. This is a simple way to create delicious smoked seafood dishes.
