These came out great, 3 minutes aside.

that recipe is killer, i dont normally enjoy grilled shrimp but doing then that way just puts them over the top

I have to put this cook in the "soon" queue. Those shrimp look great!

Brother I have been meaning to try them for over a year myself. I have cooked tons of shrimp, but not the green lightning version. That's about to change real soon. 

@Grillmagic
Great looking shrimp brother.

@Grillmagic -- those look amazing! 

@Chubbs-- It's one of my favorite ways, too!  The original recipe is by Steven Raichlen.  The only change I made is I don't add lime juice to the marinade. I think the acid from the lime breaks down the shrimp too much and causes them to be a tad mushy. 

THIS is how I do them from now on.

   Hi Ron this is the way I prepared them and also did not use the lime until they went on the grill  http://necessaryindulgences.com/2013/05/green-lightning-shrimp/

I'm well aware I could have searched, but knowing how creative Chuck can be I thought maybe he did something special or different. In addition no search engine could have answered my second question to Chuck about Christmas. And Happy Holidays to you, HeavyG.

I bet it would. It was out standing.

@Grillmagic
I did this last night on some chicken. I cut it in small strips and marinated it. then skewered and grilled and did the baste while cooking. 

It was awesome.

Griffin

Great recipe. One of our favorites. Need to do it again. Only thing we do differently is to cook them in a grill basket cuz I'm too lazy to skewer them most times. Or I can't find my skewers.
