Recipe for the week: Real New Orleans Style BBQ Shrimp

• 5 pounds medium shrimp, with shells

• 2 pounds butter

• 1 medium sweet onion, minced

• 8 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 stalks celery, diced

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

• 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning

• 2 tablespoons dried rosemary

• ground black pepper to taste

• 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce

• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

• Add all ingredients to list

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in as many baking dishes as you need. Set aside.

2. Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, celery, parsley, Creole seasoning and rosemary. Cook and stir for a few minutes, until onion is tender.
