BBQ Shrimp and Grits Recipe | Grilled Shrimp and Cheese Grits on the Big Green Egg

BBQ Shrimp and Grits Recipe with Grilled Shrimp, a Cajun Andouille Sausage Sauce and Cheese Grits
For more barbecue and grilling recipes visit: howtobbqright.com/
My BBQ Shrimp and Grits recipe is one you have to try. I started with 13-15 count Gulf Shrimp, some cajun andouille sausage and yellow stone-ground grits.
I fired up my Big Green Egg with some B&B Lump Charcoal and got it up around 350. First I grilled my cajun andouille sausage for about 20-25 minutes and sliced it into small medallions.
I cooked 1 cup of grits to package directions using chicken broth (but you can use water). Ince the grits are done, add some parmesan and cream cheese and keep them warm while you grill the shrimp.
After the sausage is cooked and sliced, place it all in a cast iron skillet with a little bacon grease and place it back right on the grate. Let the skillet get hot again and start adding all your other ingredients. Once the sauce is starting to get together, it's time to grill the shrimp.
I liberally seasoned my shrimp with my Killer Hogs Hot Rub - but use any spicy seasoning here you like. Them I place the shrimp directly on the grate for 1.5 minutes on each side. When the shrimp are almost done, throw them in the skillet and toss them in that rich, buttery sauce to finish.
All that's left at this point is to make the dish. I just place my cheese grits on a platter and top with the shrimp and cajun andouille sausage sauce. Little more lemon juice, some green onions and crumbled bacon really set it off on top.

Wow Malcolm!! This has my mouth watering!! Those giant shrimps look so succulent. And the casing on that sausage all blistered and ripped open!! What a plate of food. Great job.

[@travishoover636]

I made this his way and it was great. Then did it the pour mans way. Pre cooked shrimp and it was raining so made it on the stove. I added fresh cut cayenne and table spoon of hot chili oil. To everyone reading this and following Malcom, I have not yet found a dish of his i do not like. I love the fact he is down to earth and always says, "hey make it your own". Thank you Malcom for you time and effort making these videos.

[@PostalBarbecue]

Great cook Malcom. Loved how it all came together for a great feast.

[@tommiejackson6491]

Man I made this dish . It was a hit daaaaaam

[@The4GunGuy]

Malcolm, you are a natural! I am really learning from your vids and appreciate how you tell us what you're going to do, you do it, then tell us what you did...Tell, Show, Tell...classic demonstration process. Excellent!

[@progers5019]

Awesome recipe and we luvs out grits in S.C. The sauce, the shrimp, the sausage. Good Golly Miss Molly. Definitely be trying this one. Thanks Malcom

[@CatboyCooks]

[@hoverluver]

Great videos. You make the best looking grub. I made the mini turducken twice on my BGE. Everyone loved it. Keep up the good work.

[@presidentelectaaronp5443]

[@rn5598]

I just started watching your videos a few days ago. I subscribed ASAP lol. I love your content. And I appreciate somebody who knows how to season their food!

[@andykives3420]

Another low-carb, low-fat recipe from Malcolm! Keep em' coming brother, you have the best BBQ channel on KZbin. Love your BBQ sauce too BTW!

[@hallohallohallo444]

"low fat"...where were you when he put in two sticks of butter haha

[@qweqwe1324]

Grits (carbs galore) + Lemon juice (carbs from sugar), very little from garlic (still carbs). The fat is literally all the cheeses and the meat, and the butter...everything but the shrimp. But I can sense sarcasm so, "lol"

[@emmgeevideo]

Low fat?

[@0reastreast]

relax guys. It is sarcasm.

[@888HUSKERS]

I'm drooling over here man, this is exactly what I'm looking for. Another recipe to try for the year, might have to head on over to Country Pleasin and pickup some sausage and also order more seasonings from your site.

[@vtellez01]

That looks killer! Now on my list to try. Recently did your Cuban pork and that was awesome!

[@kevins6246]

Looks like an awesome meal, going to give this a go for sure. Also thinking I might just make the sauce and cheese grits then instead of cooking shrimp, blacken or grill a nice piece Mahi-Mahi, Grouper or Red Snapper to top off the grits and sauce. Thanks for posting your cook Malcom.

[@toddbryant2714]

[@CHARGER08RT]

Mississppi haymaker would go great with that. Great video Malcom

[@howtobbqright]

heck yeah! you know it...

[@pugtheman5372]

Couple things wrong when I made this recipe: 1: I left the sausage on a little long while I was inside peeling the shrimp. 2: I overcooked the shrimp a bit. 3: I forgot the butter and thought I'll add a half stick after all was assembled. Even with those doah moments my family loved the dish. One said it was restaurant quality. I did think 2 sticks of butter was a bunch, but the cheese grits (new way of making them for me) would have been benefited from the the extra juice. The Parm and creme cheese do make the grits set up firmly, so the extra juice would have gone nicely with the grits. By the way this way of making grits was simple and tasted great. We are use to a more cheddar/cream version. MR, thanks for a great recipe. I'll try next time to not make something after I've worked out in the yard all day. Man do I need football back, so I can rest up for a good grilling session.
