Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp with Chipotle BBQ Sauce
Ingredients
20 strips bacon (about 12 ounces)
20 medium-large shrimp, shelled and deveined (about 1 pound)
1/2 cup Gayle's Chipotle BBQ Sauce
1/4 cup canola oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
3 tablespoons chopped chipotles in adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Freshly ground pepper
Directions
Soak 5 to 8 bamboo skewers in water for about 20 minutes to keep them from burning on the grill or under the broiler.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet until half done, about 4 minutes. Or microwave, in 2 batches, on HIGH 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until bacon is partially cooked. Pat dry with paper towels. Drain and cool on paper towels. Wrap a piece of bacon around the middle of each shrimp; skewer with bamboo through the point where the bacon ends meet to keep it from unraveling. Thread 3 to 5 shrimp on each bamboo skewer.
Puree the barbecue sauce, oil, lemon juice, mustard, chipotles, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper in a blender. Set aside half of the sauce for dipping.
Preheat a grill, grill pan or broiler. Grill or broil shrimp (on a foil-lined baking sheet, if broiling) for 5 minutes, basting with the sauce once they begin to turn pink. Flip, baste again and grill or broil until just cooked through, about 4 more minutes. Serve with extra sauce.
Bacon-Wrapped Mushrooms With Honey BBQ Sauce
Ingredients
24 small fresh mushrooms
12 bacon slices
1 cup Gayle's Honey Sweet BBQ Sauce
Directions
Wash mushrooms thoroughly. Cut bacon slices in half crosswise, and cook the bacon in a large skillet until halfway done, about 4 minutes. Drain and cool on paper towels or microwave, in 2 batches, HIGH 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until bacon is partially cooked. Pat dry with paper towels. Wrap each mushroom with a bacon slice, and secure with wooden picks. Dip wrapped mushrooms in Honey-Barbecue Sauce.
Grill mushrooms (using a grill basket, if necessary), covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350� to 400�) 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until bacon is crisp and thoroughly cooked.
