  1. smurf1970 REVIEW:

    So buttery but good. I agree, probably don't need a full pound of butter. Maybe if you use large shrimp but not for medium size.

  2. Bud REVIEW:

    THis is a great recipe! I agree that half to 3/4 pound of butter is plenty. Once cooked, I placed it over Jasmine rice cooked in home made chicken stock( made with smoked chicken ). The flavor combinations were fantastic and the rice carried the cooking liquid beautifully,

    gjgee REVIEW:

    Terrific recipe! The flavors of the pepper, worcestershire and garlic were great! I garnished with chopped Italian parsley and added a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. I do wonder if one pound of butter is absolutely necessary; there was a LOT for the shrimp to swim in. Next time, I will add a bit more salt and hot sauce. Delicious!
