Beer Boiled Shrimp

Here is another good looking recipe for shrimp.

This is a football tailgating recipe.

If you have a Turkey fryer you could use it, or if you have a side burner on your grill
or simply do it on the stove.

It should be good...
Enjoy!!!

Beer Boiled Shrimp
By an Oakland Raider Tailgater

This shrimp recipe is easy, and great for warm weather games.
All you need is a camping stove, large pot, and...

2 pounds of large shrimp (don't shell them)
Six-pack of good beer (we prefer a dark ale)
1 pound kielbasa sausage
2 or 3 bay leaves
tbsp coriander seeds
salt and pepper

The night before the game...slice the kielbasa into one inch slices.
Wash the shrimp in cold water.

In the parking lot...In a large pot, bring to a boil the beer, sausage, bay leaves, coriander seeds, salt, and pepper.

Lower the heat and simmer for about ten minutes.
Dump in the shrimp and bring back to a boil.
Boil for about two minutes (shrimp should turn pink.)

We like to put the shrimp on ice and serve it cold, although it is also tasty hot.


Any bottled cocktail sauce will do, we prefer to make ours at home.

Just mix together...
2/3 cup ketchup
1/4 cup horseradish
2 tbsp hot pepper sauce (less, if preferred)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
