Step 1 – Prepare Shrimp
• If using frozen shrimp, thaw them first.
• Using desired size shrimp, place them on a flat surface with tails facing the same direction
• Run skewer through each shrimp ensuring they are as flat as possible and slightly separated (This will ensure even cooking)
• Once all shrimp are skewered, season the shrimp evenly using a shaker (This will ensure even seasoning and flavor)

• Place skewered shrimp on griddle (repeat for each skewer)

• Using tongs turn all skewers over
• Once turned ladle ½ oz compound butter over each skewer
• Cook for approximately another 2 minutes or until shrimp are done (shrimp should be firm and slightly white in color; not translucent)
