Steps:

• Peel the shrimp, leaving only their tails attached. Reserve the shells and set aside. Sprinkle the shrimp with 1 tablespoon Creole seasoning and fresh cracked black pepper. Use you hands to coat the shrimp with the seasonings. Refrigerate the shrimp while you make the sauce base.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large pot over high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the reserved shrimp shells, the remaining Creole seasoning, the bay leaves, lemons, water, Worcestershire, wine, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, allow to cool for about 15 minutes. Strain into a small saucepan. There should be about 1 1/2 cups. Place over high heat, bring to a boil, and cook until thick, syrupy, and dark brown, for about 15 minutes. Makes about 4 to 5 tablespoons of barbecue sauce base. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil is hot, add the seasoned shrimp and saute them, occasionally shaking the skillet, for 2 minutes. Add the cream and all of the barbecue base. Stir and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp to a warm platter with tongs and whisk the butter into the sauce. Remove from the heat. Mound the shrimp in the center of a platter. Spoon the sauce over the shrimp and around the plate. Arrange the biscuits around the shrimp. Garnish with chopped chives.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Add the Worcestershire sauce and 3 tablespoons water and bring the liquid to a simmer.
• Cook, stirring often, until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the butter cubes and swirl the pan to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer until the shrimp are pink and just opaque all the way through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with lots of napkins and some crusty bread for sopping up the sauce.

• Melt butter in a large skillet and combine all ingredients, except the shrimp. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring frequently.
• Add the shrimp. Turn the heat to high and cook, stirring often, for 5-10 minutes until shrimp curl (make a C, if it is an O the shrimp are overcooked!) and turn pink. Do not overcook -- the shrimp will be tough and chewy if you do. Serve immediately. Peel and eat, dipping into the sauce.

NEW ORLEANS STYLE BBQ SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a small sauce pan melt your butter with the olive oil. When almost melted add all your herbs, lemon juice, hot sauce, worcestershire sauce, seasonings and finely chopped veggies. Keep heat at Med until your veggies start to look translucent.
• Add your wine and bring to a boil. Turn heat down to low and simmer for 6 minutes.
• If you want to go the extra effort you can slice along the tops of the shrimp with a sharp knife and de-vein them with the peel on. It takes a steady hand, but they end up easier to peel and soak up more of the flavors in the sauce. Use a clean dish rag under the shrimp to avoid slipping. This also takes longer and the shrimp is still amazing without this process.
• Spread your shrimp out on a baking dish. Pour your sauce over the shrimp.
• Place pan in the oven and broil for 5 minutes. Using a spatula carefully turn the shrimp over and broil on other side for another 5 minutes. More or less time on each side depending on size of shrimp. You might want to just flip them when the top side turns nice and pink. Over cooking = tough shrimp and that's not good.
• Divide into 4ths and serve in bowls. Make sure to get that sauce/juice in there to dunk your french bread into.
• A nice glass of Pino Grigio, and a small garden salad makes for a perfect meal.
• I made these for a dinner party and provided little bowls of water with slices of lemon for them to dunk and clean their hands in after.
