My dear amazing husband loves shrimp! I thought this Crock Pot New Orleans Spicy Barbecue Shrimp Recipe was perfect for him.
It combines a couple of his favorite things…shrimp, New Orleans spices, and well a meal he did not have to cook himself.
I am on a roll right now with shrimp recipes my dear Husband is loving! He absolutely loved the Grilled Shrimp with Avocado Butter and Mediterranean Shrimp and Pasta I made.

I love your recipes..I’m also a Chef. 30 minutes is way too long for the shrimp unless you like rubber. We also heat our water/brine etc. then dip our shrimp into it once it’s turned off the boil. This way the shrimp is cooked perfectly. If it needs marinating before the boil..I’d suggest marinate first then, dip in hot brine to finish the cook. Just a suggestion. Can’t wait to see how your Limoncello turns out.

Why unpeeled? Will it work with peeled shrimp with tails on? I HATE peeling shrimp lol. But I do really want to try this! Both sound great 🙂
Chrystal S says
Both meaning this and the mediterranean shrimp and pasta lol. Oops forgot to add what “both” ment.
Tiffany says
Also use the sauce for French bread dipping!! Yummmmm
Tammilee says
Thank you for the great tip! I had not thought of doing that.
Chrystal S says
Oh that sounds sooo yummy. Great way to use up the sauce and added bonus of having a side for dinner!
Tiffany says
