There's just something about "shrimp on the barbie", isn't there?

Maybe it's how easy it is to eat at a party or cookout.

Maybe it's the association with the beach and vacation, making us think of summer and the easy life.

Or just maybe...it tastes soooooo good.

Whatever. I just know I love it. And I'm not alone. Here's a good recipes with one of my faves, Black Pepper.
