Shrimp time and temp

Got about a pound of some medium shrimp and I am going to skewer, wrap in bacon and put a little dusting of rub on. Ideas on best temp and how long to cook?

Thanks,

    Shrimp cooks pretty fast and gets tough and rubbery, bacon takes a while, sooo, what I have done is either precook your bacon about halfway or use pre-cooked microwave bacon for your wrap. Cook on a raised grid at 350-375, maybe 20 min.
    Lots of rubs and marinades out there, Dizzy Pig products are some of the best and Bad Byron has a great seafood rub. Ordinary marinades from your supermarket work well on shrimp [Terriyaki, Lemon pepper, Jerk].
    Experiment, that's half the fun :laugh:
