DRUNKEN SHAMELESS SPICY SHRIMP (DINOSAUR BBQ)



Drunken Shameless Spicy Shrimp (Dinosaur BBQ) image

John Stage almost always leaves something out in the recipes he publishes so they are just a little off. In this case, I think he just wrote "creole seasoning" when in fact, this stuff tastes most authentic with a spice they sell around here in the restaurant and in stores called "Cajun Foreplay." Use it generously. Either way these are delicious, especially served with Dinosaur BBQ Cocktail Sauce (recipe # 295318). Not for wimps!
