Looking into a white camping bowl of shrimp resting on cheesy grits.

Shrimp or Prawn

Cooking shrimp or prawns outdoors is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh seafood with a smoky, grilled flavor that enhances their natural sweetness.

Whether you’re using a barbecue grill, an open fire, or a portable griddle, the key is to cook them quickly over high heat to maintain their juicy texture. Marinating the shrimp beforehand can add depth to their flavor, while skewering them makes flipping easier and prevents them from falling through the grill grates.

Some popular recipes include grilled shrimp, shrimp poboy, shrimp and grits, and shrimp boil.
