Buttery Garlic & Garden Herb Grilled Jumbo Shrimp image

Have napkins ready for this starter course! Peel these bad boys at the table and lick the garlic and herb butter from your fingers! Caribbean rum really adds a wonderful flavor! WINE: Crack open a bottle of Viognier, the dry fruity wine is lovely with the garlic and shrimp.

I'm not a fan of the butter and garlic sauce. It's a bit too rich for me.

The shrimp were a bit too salty for my taste, but overall the dish was still good.

I found that the shrimp cooked a bit too quickly, so I had to reduce the heat.
