[nomaco-10]

share some recipes besides scampi and your favorite cocktail sauces. I was thinking about Newburg sauce, but what do you serve it over? Pasta, if so what kind?

Thanks again for your kind email.

I like shrimp boiled in Old Bay. Just peel and eat. :9

[ForrestGump]

33. Darn, I missed that one

Is Old Bay a drink or a place?

:D

[supernova]

35. I think it's

a men's cologne. The one in the white bottle with the ship on it?

[ForrestGump]

37. :-D

I'll have to add that one ot the list. Right alongside that perennial favorite, acetone shrimp (hey...cool name for a band).

Now opening for Frankie Avalon, Acetone Shrimp and the Old Baysmen!

[supernova]

40. LMAO!

*Must get up from 'puter. Need oxygen*

Acetone Shrimp? Were they ever on the same bill as the Psychedelic Furs? Or God forbid, the Butthold Surfers? :wtf:

[ForrestGump]

43. Dude

We must have visited the same restaurant...little seafood place in Burlington, NC? Yeah, they had both Acetone Shrimp and Psychedlic Fur on the same bill, with consumption of these offerings guaranteed to produce the aforementioned 'surfing.'

:o

2. If you're in the South

RUN to the nearest Winn Dixie and get a bag of Cajun Shrimp Boil. Peel the suckers, dump 'em into a big pot of boiling water with the spices for about 5 minutes.

Eat till you drop.

You're lucky. The ones we get here are called "prawns". Look sorta just like shrimp, though..........

Can't get the Shrimp Boil, I have to improvise.

[nomaco-10]

6. Yeah, I'm in the South....

I inherited a shit load of shrimp from my neighbor who got called up and sent to the middle east. She had a freezer full of shrimp sent to her by relatives in Florida. Since she'll be gone gone for 6 mos. or more, she told me to help myself so they won't ruin from freezer burn. I thought about a marinade of butter, garlic and parsley and throwing their little asses on the grill. I'm in Nashville and the temp was 80 today and tomorrow is predicted to be 76. I'm taking advantage of every second of the weather for grilling out, it will be cold and gloomy any day now and chili, homemade soup weather is just around the corner.

3. Busha Brown's Jamaican Jerk

Don't be too "liberal" with the jerk, it's potent! Fry 'em up in butter and keep a napkin handy to wipe the sweat off of your forehead.

...when's dinner?

34. Ok, but dammit, can you work it in a recipe that is....

predominantly made with velveeta, that's what I want to know!!!

[supernova]

sauce. :P

Why would you want to do that to a bunch of defenseless shrimp?

[nomaco-10]

39. because it's one of my favorite...

food groups. The five being; Cholesterol, Caffiene, Chocolate, Sugar and Salt.
