When it comes to grilling shrimp, bigger is always better. Jumbo shrimp take more time to cook through, allowing them to stay in contact with the heat long enough to develop a char. For the juiciest shrimp, grill them with the shell on. The shell imparts a distinct flavor to the shrimp and acts as a heat buffer, helping to prevent them from overcooking. Here, I’ve made two different seasonings for the shrimp, one with thyme, rosemary and jerk spice, the other a classic garlic and herb mix.

If it looks good eat it
wow…. wow….wow….i wish i could have some of that…. i have to wait for summer to cook some
Epic. Go to do all of these.
We miss that character from bizarre foods. Im assuming this is you at home and its very normal which is boring imho. Please bring back that personality that we all love when you're abroad!
Bigger shrimp equals tougher shrimp.
Beautiful inspiring cook. Thank you.
Thats it im doing this today!, Cheers!.
it's not pronounced "erbs" its pronounced "herbs" in English the h in not silent.
I love that this recipe is low carb!!
Andrew – I know you would be flamed if you went any farther than head fat, eggs, and tomalley… But I am perfectly willing to take the flack. We eat the whole thing…. removing the rough parts from the mouth as we go. Unbelievably fantastic flavor. The uninitiated should start by at least trying the legs and leg('s) body meat, and biting off the tip of the head… crunchy and delicious. We made a similar recipe last week and it was a little to much for one dinner – we saved some of the tails for later but we ate all of the rest — best part.
…..Keep up the great work.
Looking good..ur the man
That is NOT how you skewer shrimp 😂🤣
Looks amazing! 😋
Hey Andrew I live in San Francisco East Bay and I can get plenty of head-on shrimp but every time I buy them the meat is mushy which as you know is caused by being kept too long in the enzymes in the head turn the meat mushy. How to find the freshest head-on shrimp and avoid this problem. Buy them alive?😕
I love head-on shrimp all the flavor is in the head but whenever I buy them the head has turn the meat mushy!☹😖
Thanks bud!
Andrew Zimmerman is a total chiller, want to see a collab show with him and Rick Steves
Hi,
How to avoid sticking shell to shrimp after grilling?
Thank you
Skewering skills on fleek!
I clean my shrimp under running water. And I prefer to remove that vein in the belly . I know it's supposed to be a circulatory vein and not a digestive one, but I often find them filled with dark suspect matter.
Greatness!! Thank u PC
The last time I saw Andrew Zimmern was years ago when he was still on Bizzare Foods. I prefer this more mellow youtube version of him to the more animated travel channel version lol.
Delicious prawns 👍👍👍🇵🇰🇵🇰🇱🇾
The loop music is so irritating
Love head on shrimps!!!
This is the only way we eat them in Europe, the pre cleaned get the flavor contaminated from the ice at the market
I wish everything came with the head still on.
Andrew Zimmerman is his (Jewish) birth name. I wonder why he changed it to a more anglicized (Zimmern). Shame on you !
