Ingredients – Bacon-Wrapped Barbecue Jumbo Shrimp

• 12 – 10-inch (25 cm) wooden skewers
• 12 ounces dark beer
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• ½ cup parsley, finely chopped
• Barbecue rub
• 36 jumbo shrimp shelled with tail on, deveined (about 3 pounds / 1.4 kilograms)

Method – Bacon-Wrapped Barbecue Jumbo Shrimp

• Preheat grill to medium indirect heat.
• Soak skewers in beer while preparing shrimp.
• In a medium pan, melt butter and sauté onions and season with salt, pepper and your favorite barbecue rub.
• Thread each shrimp onto the skewer, starting from the tail-end.
• Wrap the entire skewer with bacon, making sure to secure it around each shrimp on the skewer. Brush with melted butter and barbecue rub mixture.
