Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Mix rub ingredients in bowl. Toss shrimp with olive oil and rub the mix outside the shrimp.
  • Preheat smoker to 225°F and line the racks with aluminum foil. Smoke shrimp for 30-40 minutes or until they turn pink.

Notes

  • Use wild shrimp when possible. It is healthier for you and just tastes better. Frozen shrimp works fine too but just make sure they're thawed before cooking.
  • Use a mild wood for a subtle smoke flavor like alder, apple or cherry.
  • Add some aluminum foil to the rack so the shrimp don't fall through the spaces.
  • For some brightness, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over top when the shrimp are done.
