Description

A great family recipe for cold peel-and-eat shrimp. This is best if made the day before to marinate in the beer brine.

Ingredients
  • 3 pounds shell-on medium shrimp
  • 4 (12 ounce) cans pilsner-style beer
  • 3 tablespoons paprika
  • 1 ⅛ cups white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
  • 2 tablespoons celery seed
  • 3 teaspoons celery salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions
  1. 1. Rinse shrimp under cold running water and set in a strainer to drain.
  2. 2. Meanwhile, add beer, paprika, vinegar, seafood seasoning, celery seed, celery salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil and add shrimp. Immediately turn off the heat and let cool on the stovetop for about 1 hour. Cover the pot and transfer to the top shelf of the refrigerator, placing it on top of a thick towel. Let shrimp soak for 12 to 24 hours.
  3. 3. Drain shrimp in a strainer and discard remaining marinating liquid.
