Title: Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Shrimp
Post by: muebe on August 04, 2012, 07:17:39 PM

I found some Alaskan Wild Shrimp on sale at the the store...

First I cut the package of bacon in half and coated them with Super Pig Bacon Rub...

Then I put 4 tablespoons of cream cheese, 1/4 cup imitation crab meat, 1/4 cup of white onion, and a 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic into my mini food processor. I blended it until smooth...

I shelled and butterflied the shrimp. Then added a spoon full of cream cheese blend. Then topped with Avocado and more imitation crab meat...

Then wrapped with bacon...

Looks wonderful. Were the shrimp still tender after cooking that long?

Yes they were. They were up on the second shelf(cooler) and the bacon & stuffing insulated the shrimp.

I imagine the bacon grease kept it moist too. Looks so good.
