 How to make delicious oven baked spicy BBQ shrimp, AND how to remove the stubborn BBQ stains!

This post has been sponsored by Tide PODS® . All opinions are mine.

Everyone knows how much I love BBQ! BBQ Chicken, ribs, turkey wings…You name it, and I’ve probably shared a recipe for it. Surprisingly, in this post I will be sharing my first seafood BBQ recipe. I will be showing you how I make my Spicy BBQ Shrimp!

Tender baked shrimp covered in a spicy bbq sauce

This shrimp is really easy to make, and it takes very little time! I use peeled & deveined Jumbo shrimp for this recipe, but if you’d like, you can use smaller shrimp. The shrimp is generously drizzled with olive oil & hot sauce, and seasoned with creole seasoning. It is then baked to perfection, then tossed in a spicy BBQ sauce. I’m telling you, it is simply ah-mazing!

As amazing as this recipe is, it’s also on the messy side(like most BBQ recipes). I don’t know what my issue is, but every time that I make or eat BBQ, I make a mess. I’m talking about stains on my clothes, and darn near everything else. I remove stubborn BBQ stains by using Tide PODS®.

I kid you not, they’re like magic! I’ve been using Tide PODS® for several years now, and I always have amazing results. Must admit, when I first used them, I was a tad bit nervous because of the size. However, those tiny little pods get the job done! My laundry always comes out stain & odor free! If you love BBQ as much as I do, but HATE dealing with stains, I highly suggest you give Tide PODS® a try. You can purchase them from your local Target ( www.target.com), or Walmart ( www.walmart.com)!

    Wow! My friend loves shrimp so I’m always looking for a new recipe…not that he cares (ha!), but I do. He got a funny look on his face when he tried this, and then he said, “There’s a WHOLE LOT of flavor going on here”! In other words, he really liked it. I did, too, and I’m not nearly as much of a shrimp fan as he is! Also, I thought 7 minutes in the oven would make the shrimp rubbery, but I did it anyway! They were perfect! And not too spicy at all – just a really good zing! Thanks so much for the delicious recipe!
