I followed the recipe exactly, but my shrimp turned out dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These shrimp were a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best shrimp he's ever had.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but these shrimp were surprisingly mild. The habanero BBQ sauce had just the right amount of heat for me.

These shrimp were a hit at my last party! The habanero BBQ sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, smoky, and spicy. I'll definitely be making these again.
