Try it with Bourbon!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'm not a "rum" fan, but LOVE my bourbon... only used 1 tsp brown sugar and it came out FANTASTIC. Can't wait for Guy's show.

OH YEAH
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I really liked this dish and used it as an appetizer for a dinner party...to rave reviews. The first time I made them, I... followed the recipe exactly; I agree with other reviews that there was a tad too much brown sugar...so, I cut the amount in half and doubled the jalapeno (like 'em spicy). This is something I definitely will make often!Read more

It was very good and I will make it again however I think the brown sugar overtook the dish and I will cut back to half the... amount next time. I also added also red onions and jalapenos.Read more

Exciting
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was quick and spectacular! One of the best shrimp dishes to come together in just moments. I served it with buttered... rice because I couldn't let brown sugar and rum escape without a bit of that combination (butter, brown sugar & rum). This will be a regular weekday and company dish. Thanks!!!Read more
