Why is New Orleans BBQ shrimp called BBQ?
The barbecue in its name is actually because the color of the spicy, saucy, and messy sauce gives it the same red color a good BBQ would. The preparation calls for quick stovetop cooking. (Oh, yesss, it’s so much better that way). And, instead of serving them on skewers, we eat them on a plate.
How do you eat New Orleans BBQ shrimp?

What is the difference between royal red shrimp and regular shrimp?
Royal reds are more lobstery, sweeter and more tender than other shrimp. In fact, the only shrimp that beats or matches them are spot prawns, which, to me, are the king of all shrimp. Both are deep water shrimp, incidentally. You don’t want to mess with royal reds too much.
