Ingredients

Shrimp:

  • 2 lbs of Shrimp peeled & deveined
  • 2 tsp of Sea Salt
  • 2 tsp of Black Pepper
  • 2 tsp of Garlic Powder
  • 2 tbsp of Olive Oil
  • Sesame Seeds for garnish
  • Chopped Cilantro for garnish
  • Wedged Limes for garnish

Rum & Cola Sauce:

  • cup of White Rum
  • ½ cup of Cola
  • ¼ cup of Teriyaki Sauce
  • 1 tsp of Agave Syrup
  • 1 Lime juiced

Instructions

  • Using Cowboy Charcoal, fill one chimney full of coals, light and let preheat for 15 minutes for medium high heat (about 350F). Pour coals into the grill into one pile for direct cooking.
  • Lather your shrimp in olive oil then season with sea salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Preheat your wok/skillet 2-3 minutes before cooking and add a little oil to it as well.
  • Add your shrimp and cook for 3 minutes or until almost done. Once done, pull off shrimp and let rest.
  • Re-add your wok/skillet to the grill and deglaze using rum. Let the rum simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced, then add cola, teriyaki sauce, agave syrup and lime juice. Let sauce simmer until reduced in half. Still often to prevent burning.
  • Once sauce is done, add shrimp back to the skillet and simmer in sauce for 30 seconds. Garnish with sesame seeds, cilantro and limes! Enjoy!
