    serves 8

Ingredients

2 cups (4 sticks) melted butter
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce

2 teaspoons Texas Pete Hot Sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons salt
5 pounds unpeeled medium shrimp
2 lemons, thinly sliced

Preparation

  1. Stir together the butter, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, pepper, hot sauce, garlic, and salt. Pour half this mixture into a large heatproof dish. Layer half the shrimp and half the lemon slices in the dish; then form a second layer with the remaining shrimp and lemon slices, and pour remaining sauce into the dish.

Serve the shrimp with plenty of French bread for dipping in the spicy butter sauce.
