All these shrimp dishes are making me hungry!
Better not to take the shot, than to screw it up.

After fresh spots out of pots you’ve pulled on Prince William Sound it’s pretty tough to go back to whatever these “regular” shrimps we get down here are.
I used to take half a dozen spots and skewer them then onto a blazing hot grill for no more than 30-45 seconds a side. Brush with garlic butter and get ready to be spoiled.

Somebody remind me to order my shrimp when I go to town tomorrow. Usually takes a week or so till arrival.

I love shrimp just about any way it's cooked. Any time it's on sale I pick up some frozen cooked shrimp. But we did get a bag of frozen cooked shrimp we just didn't like the flavor of. I do not recall the name, but it was more colorful than most of the shrimp we get. We thought it might be a handling issue, and dumped the rest of the bag. Any time red lobster runs thier "all you can eat shrimp", or crab legs, we will be there a few times.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

We get down to the coast 4-5 times a year. Usually able to buy shrimp right off the boat. We typically buy 20-40 lbs per trip, nearly always large to jumbo. Always head on as they are fresh fresh. Deheading and boiling them releases all shrimp fat w enormous flavor. Makes awesome stock to use at once or freeze. My experience is the only way to cook shrimp poorly is to overcook it.
America, Our Country and we’re taking it back.
