Add shrimp and cover.
Marinate at least 4 hours or up to overnight.

This ranch mix and oil coating allows grilling perfection.  Cook the potatoes skewers first and longer and then your shrimp and tomatoes. This is a complete and tasty meal for those who love to grill.

16 ounces shelled, de-headed shrimp
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1 ounce package ranch dressing mix
12 ounces red potatoes, cut into small chunks
24 grape tomatoes
2 large red onions cut into chunks
20 bamboo skewers


In a large bowl mix the dressing mix and oil.
Toss the potatoes, tomatoes and shrimp well. 
Do not toss the onion chunks (they will all fall apart).
Prepare 8 potato skewers alternating potatoes and onions.
Prepare 12 shrimp skewers dividing the shrimp and tomatoes.
Heat the grill to medium-low.
Cook the potato skewers on tin-foil, turning, until potatoes are cooked.
Lower the heat to low and cook the shrimp skewers about 10 minutes, turning, until the shrimp are cooked.

Serves 4

BBQ  SHRIMP  SKEWERS

Allow a little prep time for this and divide evenly between skewers.   Suggestion:  6 12" skewers with 6 shrimp each.




36  raw shrimp  (size “36-40 count”), shelled and de-veined
9 slices of bacon cut into 4ths
1 cup BBQ sauce

Wrap each shrimp in a slice of bacon and thread the skewer through     it in such a way as it secures the bacon at each end and around       the shrimp.
Put 6 wrapped shrimp on each skewer.
Heat grill to medium and grill skewers for 8-10 minutes turning frequently.
Brush each skewer with BBQ sauce and cook 4-6 minutes longer. 
(Bacon should be cooked before removing from the grill.)
Note:  A skewer set that has a rack that allows skewers to be turned is helpful.  Otherwise try a sheet of aluminum foil under the skewers.

Makes 36
