?There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the best recipe for shrimp beard will vary depending on personal preferences. Some people prefer to cook their shrimp beard with a simple seasoning of salt, pepper, and garlic, while others may choose to add more complex flavors such as curry or ginger. Ultimately, the best shrimp beard recipe is the one that tastes the best to you.

 2 lbs (.9 kg). jumbo shrimp
 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped (I triple this)
 ¼ cup (60 ml) chopped parsley
 1 tsp (5 ml). dried basil
 1 tsp (5 ml). dry mustard
 1 tsp (5 ml). salt
 ½ cup (125 ml) olive or peanut oil
 of 1 lemon
1

Split through shell of each shrimp with kitchen shears.

2

Remove black vein but leave shrimp shell intact.

3

Place in bowl or jar with mixture of remaining ingredients; marinate for several hours or overnight (I have marinated for 2 days with excellent results).

4

Grill over charcoal or in a broiler for 4 to 5 minutes or until shells are slightly browned and shrimp are just cooked through.

The longer these marinate the better they are. Don't grill too long or they will be hard to peel.
