Guys, I’m in Monterey. I got shrimp and we’re making shrimp cocktail. First things first, we’re going to cook the shrimp. I got boiling water and I’m going to drop in some salt. I throw the shrimp into the boil. And then I turn the heat off. I’m going to let those swim around for about 2 or 3 minutes. Drain them out. And we’re going to go straight into a bowl. I’m going to leave a little bit of that liquid in there cuz that’s going to add great flavor. Now we start adding the goods. I got spicy V8. That’s going to add a little bite. Just pour some of that right on top. And then we want some sweetness in there, too. So, I’m adding some ketchup. Couple big squirts, guys. That’s the base. Now, we’re going to fix it up. So, I got my veggies. I’m just going to throw those all in. They’re all diced up. I got tomatoes, red onions, avocado, some cucumber, and a little jalapeno. We finished with cilantro. We’re going to season it up. I got salt, black pepper. I’m in a Airbnb, so I’m just using what I have here, guys. I also have a little taheen. Next, we’re going to go in with a little Tabasco. That’s going to add a little kick at the end. We’re going to finish with a couple squeezes of fresh lime juice. That’s going to be perfect. Once that’s in there, we’re going to go ahead and stir this whole thing up. Get it all mixed around. Make sure everything’s really well coated. Get all those veggies in there and broken up. Guys, that’s going to be perfect. Look at that. I’m going to use some Tostito chips for mine today. I grab a little bit of that sauce with all the veggies in it. Throw me a shrimp right on top. I take a taste. This was absolutely delicious. The V8 has a nice kick to it. You can use a regular uh V8, not spicy if you don’t want it that hot. But man, that is just the perfect heat level. All the veggies are super fresh. What a treat. Cheers everyone.

Too hot for me. Sorry!! ππ
Looks Delicious π
What ya doing in Monterey?
A perfect Holiday party idea! Continued good health to you, my friend!
Use tongs for juicing trust me but gahhhhhhh that looks good
I saw the salt and pepper shakers and thought "nah, he can't be at home".
that's a nice "shrimp salsa"
I use the skins after a good wash add some salt and lemons squeezed toss them in boil for 20/30 mins then follow chef's steps πͺβ€
That sounds scrumptious π
β€β€β€β€β€β€β€β€
That looks good af your a good cook working with what you got
Sodium out of this world!!!
Clamato and cilantro
Try this guys. You can keep a bit of the shrimp water or not, up to you. But use 1/2 V8 & 1/2 Clamato Juice and TapatΓo instead of Tabasco. Trust me, you wonβt regret it. With some Saltines and Dos Equis XX lager or a Stella. Buen provecho. Youβre welcome. π
Iβve tried it with v8 but Clamato to me is better. Also donβt forget the avocado. Looks delish.
Kevin, try Mr and Mrs T, bloody Mary mix. So good. I'm trying this with that. Yummy
Praying for youπβ₯οΈ
Tip: cocktail shrimp (tiny). Ditch v8 (WTF) botanera sauce instead (Buffalo, San Luis). Cucumbers (I guess). Some Maggi sauce. Easy on the ketchup.
A friend of mine used Clamato juice in her shrimp cocktails. They were delicious.
God for you Bruttah. StayGroovy
Peace be with you.
That has to be good. π Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Kevmo!ππ₯³πππβ€οΈ

Do you still do hot sauce reviews? Used to love those havent seen one in a long time.
Next time add Crab boil to your water to boil them in. You wonβt regret it. I hope they sell it by you.
