Directions
1
Get a big pot of water to a rolling boil.
2
Add 3 pounds of shell on white shrimp and 1 bottle of Dan-O's seasoning to the boiling water.
3
Put the lid on the pot to bring the water back to a boil quickly.
4
Once boiling again, cook the shrimp for about 1 minute until they float to the top.
5
Immediately remove the cooked shrimp from the pot and place them into a bowl.
6
Add ice and cold water to the shrimp in the bowl to create an ice bath, which stops the cooking process and keeps them tender.
7
Set the chilled shrimp aside.
8
To make the cocktail sauce, start with 1 cup of ketchup.
9
Add about 3 ounces (half a jar) of fresh prepared horseradish to the ketchup.
10
Add about 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce.
11
Squeeze the juice of one lemon into the mixture.
12
Add about 1 tablespoon of Dan-O's seasoning.
13
Mix all the cocktail sauce ingredients together.
14
Peel the shrimp.
15
Serve the shrimp with the homemade spicy cocktail sauce.
