Bacon Wrapped Smoked Shrimp
The Country Bob Boys are gearing up for the big game. So we figured we would cook a couple appetizers for our guys here at the plant.

Ingredients
2 lbs. extra large shrimp (22-26 count)
2 lbs. bacon (cut into thirds or halves)
Country Bob's Original Barbecue Sauce to taste
Country Bobs's Seasoning Salt to taste
Brown sugar to taste
Toothpicks or skewers
Directions
1
We highly recommend pre-cooking the bacon. The shrimp cook so quickly that the bacon doesn’t have time to get crispy in the smoker. Cook bacon for about 5 minutes in the oven at 375 F. Then cut in half or thirds.
2
Take a slice of pre-cooked bacon and wrap shrimp. Secure with a toothpick or skewer, that’s all there is to it. Don't forget to dust them with brown sugar and Country Bob's Seasoning Salt.
3
Fire up pellet grill or smoker and get it up to 225 degrees F using your favorite type of wood/pellets. Today we used 100% pure apple wood pellets from Smokin' Brothers. Or you can set up your grill (gas or charcoal) to cook indirect.
4
Once the smoker is maintaining a steady temperature, it is ready for the shrimp. At the 30-minute mark check for doneness and at this time brush on your Country Bob's Original Barbecue Sauce.
5
Most shrimp will turn pinkish when they are done and this is a good indicator, but you do not want to overcook shrimp or they will get rubbery. Shrimp should be near perfect in 35 minutes at 225 degrees F.
