Green lightning shrimp give it a google

Two recipes:
First, I've made several shrimp skewer recipes, and loved all of them, but one really stands out above the others. I made these for my family at a beach get-together in a rented house using a gas grill, and I think they're even better on my BGE, but I got rave reviews including, "I think this is the best shrimp I've ever had!" It's a Steve Raichlen recipe: Gulf Coast Shrimp. It's really good!There's another one that's super simple, basically just Sriracha Shrimp, but it has a few more ingredients. It's by Kim Youngblood (Vidalia1), 2010 Sunshine State Eggfest recipe collection:Fiery Asian ShrimpINGREDIENTS:1 lb. large (16-20 count) Shrimp peeled & deveined3 Tbls. hot Chili Sauce (Sriracha hot sauce preferred)3 Tbls. Olive Oil2 teaspoons Sesame Oil1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt2 teaspoons Sugar4-5 cloves Garlic finely choppedGarnish (Important!):3 Tbls. Green Onions choppedLemon or Lime wedgesSkewers
DIRECTIONS:Combine chili sauce, olive oil, sesame oil, sea salt, sugar and garlic in a large ziplock bag. Mix together well. Add shrimp and let marinate for 30 minutes to an hour (original recipe said up to 2 hours).Skewer shrimp and grill on BGE direct at 500° or so for 2-3 minutes per side until shrimp are done. Do not overcook. (Recipe originally said 350-375° for the same amount of time, but there was no charring at all at around 400. I liked them better cooked shorter but hotter at 500 or more.)DO NOT FORGET: Plate and sprinkle green onions over shrimp and squeeze lime or lemon juice on shrimp and serve. (Definitely do this: the lime flavor was really good in this dish, and I think it would have been less wonderful without it.)NOTES:Marinating pineapple chunks also (with just Sriracha), and alternating them with shrimp on skewers, was really good. -
Keep it simple. Hot fire. Olive oil, salt and pepper with a lemon squeeze finish. Garlic in the mix precook is good. Double skewer the the shrimp. 2 skwerers through each shrimp. Simplifies turning and helps even cooking. 2 minutes then turn for 1-2 minutes. Should be 1 minute after the turn if you have a good fire.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga
