Try to purchase the largest bulbs of garlic you can find, slice them into three pieces and use only the middle slice. Make certain to soak the wooden skewers in cold water for a minumum of 30 minutes before using them on the grill. Plan ahead the shrimp needs to marinade for a minumum of 5 hours. Amounts are only estimated depending on the size of your shrimp.
