Ingredients

  • 2 pounds raw, peeled shrimp
  • 4 tablespoons extra- virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 3 teaspoons favorite no-salt barbeque rub
  • salted butter, melted
  • lemon wedges

Instructions

  • Prepare the grill for smoking and heat to 225 degrees.
  • Place the olive oil, kosher salt and grill rub in a large bowl. Mix well. Add the shrimp to the mixture and stir to thoroughly coat the shrimp with the mixture. Let marinade for 30 minutes.
  • Place the shrimp into the smoking set-up. Smoke for 45 minutes or up to 1 hour. Remove and salt to taste. Serve warm, room temperature or cold with lemon wedges and warm melted butter.

Notes

This recipe calls for a barbeque rub that contains no salt. To ensure this, read the ingredients on the back of the bottle. If you do use a barbeque rub that has salt in the ingredients omit the 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt. After smoking the shrimp, salt to taste. When smoking shrimp, use a fruit or light flavored wood.
