[Roxy15]

Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp With Chipotle BBQ Sauce:

 

20 Strips Bacon-(About 12-Oz.s)

20 Medium Large Shrimp, Shelled & Deveined-(About 1 lb.)

1/2 Cup Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce Or Your Favorite BBQ Sauce

1/4 Cup Canola Oil

3 T. Lemon Juice

1 Tsp. Dijon Mustard

3 T. Chopped Chipotles In Adobo Sauce

1/2 Tsp. Red Pepper Flakes

1/4 Tsp. Cayenne Pepper

Freshly Ground Pepper

 

Soak 5 to 8 bamboo skewers in water for about 20 minutes to keep them from burning on the grill or under the broiler.

 

Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet until halfway done, about 4 minutes. Drain and cool on paper towels. Wrap a piece of bacon around the middle of each shrimp; skewer with bamboo through the point where the bacon ends meet to keep it from unraveling. Thread 3 to 5 shrimp on each bamboo skewer.

 

Puree the BBQ Sauce, Canola Oil, Lemon Juice, Mustard, Chipotles, Red Pepper Flakes, Cayenne pepper and 1/4 Tsp. freshly Ground Pepper in a blender. Set aside half of the sauce for dipping.

 

Preheat a grill, grill pan or broiler. Grill or broil shrimp (on a foil-lined baking sheet, if broiling) for 5 minutes, basting with the sauce once they begin to turn pink. Flip, baste again and grill or broil until just cooked through, about 4 more minutes. Serve with extra sauce.
