That's a great recipe! Gotta to try it. My partner & I have a cat that exclusively only likes cocktail ring shrimp, he gets it as a treat occasionally. We are shrimp obsessed in our household. Thank you for your seafood content!
As someone who does this for a living, don’t salt the water. Add 1/2 cup pickling spice wrapped in a coffee filter or cheese cloth and 1 whole lemon sliced in half to 8 quarts of water, bring to a boil, remove pickling spice bag, add 4# peeled and deveined shrimp 16-20 count shrimp, cook for 4-6 minutes, strain shrimp and add directly to an Ice bath until cool, serve with desired cocktail sauce (my preference is St. Elmo’s)
I typically leave the shell on when cooking. I also boil the water and put the shrimp in when it’s boiling set a timer for 3 minutes and take it out and rinse them with cool water and put in fridge. I peel after cooking. Also 3 mins should be the max for cooking shrimp as they are fully cooked and never rubbery
Wrong!!! Boil water rapidly with a bay leave for 2 minutes then drop shrimp in for 30-45 seconds. Drain ice them down and enjoy with cocktail sauce… Try it!!!!!
DO NOT buy 'fresh' shrimp. Unless you live within driving distance of where the shrimp are harvested, what you are buying is defrosted frozen shrimp. You are much better off purchasing quality frozen shrimp, which were probably flash frozen immediately after being caught. The 'fresh' shrimp may have been defrosted days ago and has just been sitting on a bed of ice in the display counter.
Got a question for ya brother. So I’m from deep south Louisiana where seafood is very local and fresh from our brackish water ways. We can consume seafood regularly on a day to day basis down here because our seafood has very low to no mercury in it. Do you ever have mercury problems with any of the seafood y’all are getting beings it’s mostly deep water salt water seafood?

Must be Gulf shrimp – they have the fentynil bend going on.
Enjoy seafood while you can, most are all contaminated with a bunch of bad shitz!
Wasabi here in America is literally green horseradish sauce
Take the tails off dum dum. Do you eat chicken with the feathers on?
No
Stop eating shrimp cocktails and make shrimp mei fun 😋

Deveining is a waste of time and effort. I will die on this hill.
im using green died horseradish instead of horseradish

Rockport texas red sauce. The best

You should try sous vide shrimp cocktail. It preserves that lovely shrimp flavor.
Store bought wasabi is just horseradish.
Real wasabi has an extremely short shelf life when ground.
That's coloured horseradish
i steam mine for 3 mins
Jokes on you. You’re still using horseradish.
you're still using horseradish
I like thr rings
Not wasabi. That's horseradish
Nice thanks!
You can't beat kelchners
Wasabi is ELITE
But the shrimp rings are cheap and ready to eat…
You don't need to devein them. Lol
Use the shells to make a little fish stock. Then add salt, lemon, fresh garlic and some white wine to the stock. Then cook your shrimp
Two words…..OLD BAY
Nice to see your channel grow…. I used to watch your shorts of you trying different oysters
Unpopular opinion, I don’t give a crap about the vein aka poop shoot 😅
Using ketchup as the main ingredient for cocktail sauce should be a warcrime

Try them in a Mexican cocktail. Nothing like it.
I hate those cold cocktail shrimps… I’d rather have them served with a hot butter and pesto dipping sauce
I hate when people dip my shrimp in ice bath. I like my shrimpy warm 😂
I'm using wasabi instead of horseradish he says, proceeding to then use lime green dyed horseradish sold as wasabi
Adding lemon boiling water another typical deer 😂
the quiet problem here is frozen shrimp…. theyre mush, they have been obliterated by ice crystals and are barely edible outside blended meat.
I like the vein, lot of flavor
I like how he casually dropped the main point of the recipe. 😂😂😂
Wasabi in the US IS horse radish lol. It's just dyed green.
Yes! I love shrimp cocktail! 😋
The best fresh shrimp I’ve had was from Wegmanns here in Virginia, taste like lobster
Leave shell on shrimp when boiling. You are nothing but an amature trying to give cooking lessons. Don't quit your day gob if you even have one
The shrimp rings are meant for easy convenience and for people who are disabled
