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!
