Directions:

Melt a stick of the butter in a skillet. Saute the garlic, onions, celery, parsley, rosemary and seasoning blend for about 2 - 3 minutes. Melt the rest of the butter. Add the beer (drink the rest of the bottle).

Add the sauteed vegetables, Worcestershire and lemon juice. Place the shrimp in the seasoned butter, using as many baking dishes as you need to make sure all the shrimp are more or less submerged. If they're not ... melt more butter and add to the sauce.

Bake in a 350 degree oven until the shrimp turn pink, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve in big bowls. Put a handful of shrimp in each bowl and ladle lots of the spicy butter sauce over it. Roll up your sleeves and wear a bib as this gets messy. Serve with plenty of French bread to sop up the sauce.

Flavor with Creole seasoning.
