Grilled Jumbo Shrimp With Garlic-Herb Butter image

A very simple recipe with just enough seasoning to enhance the flavor of the grilled shrimp without overpowering it. The best way to eat the shrimp is to peel them at the table and dip in extra butter sauce left over from the recipe. I have prepared the recipe with and without the rum - I do not find the rum to add anything special.

This recipe was easy to follow and the shrimp turned out great. I used a mix of butter and olive oil, and it worked perfectly. I served it with a side of grilled asparagus and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The shrimp are always cooked perfectly and the garlic herb butter is amazing. I like to add a little bit of lemon zest to the butter for an extra pop of flavor. I serve it with grilled vegeta
