How long should you cook shrimp on a BBQ?

Preheat your grill to 350-450°F and set it up for direct cooking. Grill the shrimp over direct, medium heat for 5-7 minutes, turning the shrimp halfway through the process. The outside of the shrimp should turn a nice pink color when it is cooked while the meat inside should be white and opaque.

Is it better to BBQ shrimp with shell on or off?

Shrimp can be grilled with or without their shells. I like to peel the shrimp prior to grilling. Remove all of the shell except for the part that is around the tail of the shrimp. Removing the shell will allow the marinade to penetrate the meat and give the shrimp more taste.

It can be ordered as an appetizer or entree. Served with the heads and tails on, and grilled in Worcestershire sauce and butter, many use a bib to enjoy it. You will have to use your bare hands to eat, and most restaurants will provide ample French bread to sop up the addictively silky sauce.
