    I have made this recipe twice both times it was fantastic. I am not a chef, never went to culinary school I just love to cook. Scot from culinary school you didn't follow the direction. The recipe had a lot of taste and it did not taste like lemon. I agree with grumpie from CO. I am concerned with your professional choice. The other person that didn't get base thick, you did something wrong too try making it again and follow the directions.

    Hey AGScott...you'd think that a "culinary grad student" would understand that "3 lemons, peeled and sectioned" means SUPREMES. No pith. No peel. Your "culinary graduate program" must be at the Universidad de Guadalajara or somewhere equally depressing. If you are the future of professional cooking, then I'm deeply concerned....

    This was terrible. I am a culinary grad student so I know how to follow a recipe but the result was bitter and flavorless. Creamy, yes, but kind of awful and overpowered by the worchestershire. I had to massively readjust all the seasonings just to make it palatable. I am wondering if one of the issues is that instead of calling for peeled lemons this should just call for lemon juice as the pith in most lemons is very bitter and even a small amount. I know some people love this, but I was definitely not a fan. If you do make his, I would recommend making absolutely sure to remove even the smallest amount of pith on the exterior of the lemons or just use lemon juice insead.

    OMG - honestly one of the best things I have ever made or eaten. I have made this a few times now and everyone who eats it is amazed by its rich flavor - it is truly a 5 star meal you can make at home. I would give this 10 stars if I could...WOW!

    My husband made this and it was absolutely amazing. It was quite a production (he too an entire Sunday afternoon to make it but it was worth the time. Sooooo delicious. He served it with biscuits and rice. you absolutely mustn't skip the step of boiling the peels for the sauce- it gives it such perfect flavor.

    I can't believe anyone had trouble getting this sauce to thicken. It seems nearly fool-proof. Awesome, authentic tasting...but very rich...New Orlean's authenticity downfall!

    This recipe was easy and delicious! Being from New Orleans I LOVE shrimp and was very satisfied with the end result. The only thing I did even slightly different was add a tiny bit more seasoning to the shrimp. I am not sure why others could not get the sauce thick and why it took so long. I would say it is about a 2 hour process. And well worth it! Texture was perfect!

    I've been using this recipe for over ten years now. There are no flaws and I've recently been pouring this bbq sauce and shrimp over Fettuccine. Everyone loves it. Of course, many other pastas would work too.
