Ingredients
Shrimp – I’m using jumbo sized shrimp today, deveined but with the tails still on. Maple syrup – We’re using quite a bit of syrup today to make a nice sweet glaze. You can use honey instead if that’s all you have on hand. BBQ sauce – Store bought works just fine for this recipe today! Bacon – Thin cut and about 9 strips. Seasoning – Salt and pepper. Chives – Just to be sprinkled on top as a nice bright garnish.
