After reading all the reviews, I was really disappointed when I made these. They were average at best and not something anyone thought was good enough to make again. I'll keep looking for a good grilled shrimp recipe.

Oh boy! My men absolutely loved this dish. My 18year old son inhaled these! We all loved them. Using the leftover sauce to dip the shrimp in reminded us of the sauce used at the Japanese Steak House. Super Yummy! I used mega-shrimp (13 to a pound) and grilled a bit longer, of course. Very good and will certainly make again and again. Thanks!

these shrimp are absolutely awesome! everyone loves them, and it is my go to recipes for shrimp. I have even used the recipe in a version of skillet shrimp, which also turned out just as tasty.

I just loved the buttery mixture. It was not so overpowering as to take away the wonderful flavor of some good shrimp. ( You would think with 2 tsp chili powder) Lots of compliments at my BBQ. Soooo eaaasssy!!!

Wonderful taste to the shrimp. My husband just goes on about how good the sauce is. Have made three times, and will again.
