Recipe Tip

Use white crab meat which is more delicate and flaky vs. dark meat that has a stronger aroma and a mussier texture.

Dad’s Seasonings

Must have grillin seasonings!

Step 2: Prepare the shrimp

For this recipe I went with fresh, deveined shrimp that I picked up at my local grocer.

Recipe Tip

If you are purchasing frozen shrimp, make sure to defrost before seasoning.

De-shell the shrimp, only leaving the tail intact for easier handling. Cut a thicker slice in the area where the shrimp was deveined to open it up more.


Smoked Stuffed Shrimp

Scoop up about 2 tablespoons of the crab meat stuffing and form it into a ball. Place the stuffing on top of the shrimp along side the curved part. Arrange the stuffed shrimp in a cast iron skillet and lightly season everything with Dad’s All Purpose rub. Place small pieces of butter in between the shrimp and this dish is ready to hit the grill.

Recipe Tip

Minced garlic is another great ingredient to the butter to give the recipe a boost of sharpness and savoriness.

Step 3: Time to grill some smoked stuffed shrimp

Preheat the grill to 275 degrees and set for indirect heat. Place the full cast iron on the grates and smoke for 25 minutes allowing the shrimp to cook to a light pink and warm up the stuffing.

Remove it off the grill, shred some parmesan over the top, sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley, squeezed some fresh lemon juice and enjoy this delicious smoked stuffed shrimp recipe.
