    I love these things. Easily served on their own as shrimp cakes. I find about a teaspoon or so of Wondra flour helps keep them together. Also a ring mold or old tuna can ring mold is handy in keeping them together.

    The 2 hour rest is key, lets the mixture get nice and sticky.

    Flavor was there in a big way. I did have trouble keeping them together. Added the flour right in the mix and this helped alot. Will try again and drain the shrimp alot longer.

    I made these for an appetizer, making the burgers in a silver dollar size then breaded them in panko before cooking. Served then with wasabi mayonaise. Everyone loved them. My husband wanted to know why I hadn't served these before. I will make these again!

    Great flavor. Difficult to form into patties.

    I made this recipe for my in-laws and they were very impressed. We are all from Louisiana and love seafood. If you are looking for a recipe to wow an audience, this is the recipe.

    I was very nervous about eating Shrimp Burgers, but my family loves shrimp, so I had to give it a try. They reminded me of veggie burgers. You can taste all the vegetables individually. There's only 3 of us, so we had enough for the next night as well. I mean really, did you see the size of the burgers Emril made? I couldn't eat a burger that big. I put the rest of the mixture in a container, and it was as good as new.

    This was an awesome dish, I served it with wedged potatos and the best part was the home-made tarter sauce - better than ANY fancy restaurant. The only problem I experienced was the fact that the patties do not stick together easily. Use shredded lettuce, helps keep things together. My husband said it was the best meal he had in a long time.

    Being as I always crave a burger on Fridays during lent, this recipe is fulfills that need for something absolutely amazing. The only issue I had is that the first couple of times they were too watery. I learned the hard way to let the shrimp sit in a strainer for a few minutes to drain the excess water from the shrimp. This has fast become a family favorite!

    great southern recipe. I drained the shrimp and patted them dry,so the bergers would not fall apart(as much. I also sprinkled some flour on the shrimp for the same reason.
