Cajun Shrimp Boil

I'm generally not a huge fan of shrimp (or scallops really)... but man I could eat these all day with my Cocktail Sauce.

Shrimps... forget about it. A nice large bowl of warm 8 - 12 count colossal shrimp ready for a colossal dip in some Shrimp Cocktail Sauce.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon Cajun Power® Cajun Seasoning
1 tablespoon Spice House® King Creole
1 tablespoon Old Bay® Seasoning
1 tablespoon Spice House® Italian Spice Blend
2 tablespoons C&H® Granulated Sugar
3 tablespoons ~~Maine Sea Salt Co.®~~ closed :( - Sea Salt
1/2 cup white onion, rough chopped
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 can pilsner beer
2 tablespoons Cajun Power® Garlic Sauce, Original
2 - 3 lb 8 - 12 count shrimps
water
garnish
Cajun Power® Garlic Sauce, Original
2 tablespoons Kerrygold® Unsalted Butter

Directions

Combine all spices and beer into a pot of cold water. Submerge shrimp in brine for 15 minutes.

Set cold pot over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until water registers 160 degrees and shrimp are firm and have turned pink, ~12 minutes.

Once cooked, drain in a colander and put ingredients into a bowl. Add butter and a drizzle of the Cajun Power Garlic Sauce on the shrimp.

Serve warm.
