Because March Madness, like everything else, is better with bacon!
Grilled Shrimp
2 lbs of large, raw shrimp - peeled and deveined, tails left on
1 lb pkg of bacon. Thick cut won't work very well ... Use the ordinary thin stuff
2 jalapeño peppers, thinly sliced the long way
Barbecue sauce - whatever suits your fancy
Toothpicks
Preheat grill to hot. 500 degrees or so is good.
Cut bacon in half. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften and barely begin cooking.
Assemble shrimp: put a slice of jalapeño on a shrimp. Wrap shrimp with bacon. Skewer with a toothpick. (This is a pain in the ...., but it's worth it. Trust me.)
Brush shrimp with barbecue sauce. Grill. Flip. Brush on more sauce. Grill. Flip again, if you want and repeat process.
You can grill around a dozen or so of these at a time, without losing track of where you are in the grill/paint/flip process. 3 dozen (2 lbs of shrimp) last about 5 minutes, if there are 4 guys watching the basketball game. Thus, the chef has to eat hers as soon as they come off the grill

. I was
vaping Frenilla while grilling, but I suspect they'd go even better with Atlanta ...
