I had to peel my shrimp in order to clean them so I grilled them naked, tails on (on my indoor grill and they turned out great...and they were a lot easier to eat. I will make this dish again.

I've made these a few times and I have to say to peel them first. They cook a little faster and on the right grill they will mark up a little better for presentation *Grill marks*..and I like the texture a little more...I also use skewers and put about 6 jumbo prawns per skewer ...I think the shell is more of a show thing..Peel them rascals..You will be glad you did...

I took the shells off and forgot the sugar, but these were delicious! I cooked them for a couple of minutes in the oven, but I bet they'd be even better on the grill. I'll definitely be making them again.
