ingredients
1 1/2 quart water
1/4 cup distilled vinegar
1/2 lemons, cut into thin slices
2 cloves garlic, smashed
5 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
1/2 teaspoon peppercorns
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 bay leaves, crumbled
2 pounds large shrimp, in their shells
1/2 pound butter
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
directions
In a large pot, combine the water, vinegar, lemon slices, garlic, Old Bay Seasoning, peppercorns, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, 1/4 teaspoon of the cayenne, and the bay leaves. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the shrimp to the pot. Cover and bring back to a boil. Continue boiling, partially covered, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimp are just done and they turn pink. Drain.
In a small stainless-steel saucepan, melt the butter. Remove the pan from the heat and add the Worcestershire sauce, the lemon juice, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of cayenne.
Divide the sauce among individual small bowls. Serve the shrimp with the butter dipping sauce. Let everyone peel their own shrimp.

Overall this was a good recipe but I thought that the butter sauce didn't really need the lemon. Would have preferred it just spicy not also lemony.
