Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the beer and minced garlic until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the shrimp to the mixture, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. (1 minute)

03

Step

Transfer the shrimp and marinade to a resealable plastic bag. Squeeze out any excess air and seal tightly. Place the bag in a bowl to prevent any potential leaks. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours for a more intense flavor. (120-240 minutes)

05

Step

Preheat a cast iron grill pan (or your outdoor grill) over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke, indicating it's hot enough. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Remove the shrimp from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Discard the remaining marinade. (1 minute)

07

Step

Grill the shrimp until the shells turn a vibrant pink and the shrimp are opaque and cooked through, approximately 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. (5 minutes)

08

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a smoky flavor, consider using a charcoal grill or adding wood chips to your gas grill.
Don't over-marinate the shrimp, as the beer's acidity can make them mushy.
Serve with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce for an extra burst of flavor.
