NOTE: We used 7 skewers w/ 5 large shrimp each – but the amount of skewers you use and how many shrimp you put on each will depend on how many shrimp equal a pound from whichever size of shrimp you buy.
TIPS: If you use wood skewers, soak them in warm water for at least 20 mins prior to use to minimize burning while on grill. Make this recipe #Keto, #LactoVeg, #LactoOvoVeg, #LowCarb, #OvoVege, #Paleo, #Whole30, #Vegan by choosing an eating plan-compliant BBQ sauce.
