Ingredients for Bbq Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 6-8 slices bacon
  • Barbecue Spice

How to Make Bbq Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Preheat bacon in a pan over medium heat until slightly crispy but not fully cooked (about 2-3 minutes per side). Set aside.
  3. Wrap each shrimp with half a slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick.
  4. Generously sprinkle both sides of the bacon-wrapped shrimp with BBQ seasoning.
  5. Let the shrimp sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Line a jelly roll pan with extra-heavy-duty foil. Place a wire rack inside the pan for even cooking.
  7. Arrange the shrimp on the wire rack, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  9. Remove from oven, carefully remove toothpicks, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
