RECIPE: Since we are all grilling a lot, here's a great appetizer from a local celeb: REC: Grilled Shrimp

[heather_in_sf]

David Gockley's Grilled Shrimp (he's the newest general director of the San Francisco Opera)

2 # large (jumbo) prawns - peeled and deveined

1 jar pickled jalapeno slices - drained

2 # good bacon - cut in half

1 bottle of your favorite barbeque sauce

Place a jalapeno slice on each shrimp and wrap in bacon, secure with a toothpick.

Grill over coals until shrimp are almost cooked through, brush with barbeque sauce, and grill until bacon is crispy and shrimp are cooked through.

Serve with silver coin margueritas.

This looks great! Love all the ingredients, never would have thought to make this combination!
Got a bottle of spicy barbecue sauce I wanted to try, now I know what to do with it!
Thanks for posting!
