Regardless that we live in the northeast and have some brutal winters, we still grill outside almost weekly. This Grilled Shrimp Cocktail is a year-round dish that can even be prepared ahead of time and served cool or at room temperature. No grill? No problem. The shrimp can also be broiled, too. Simply follow the steps, and rather than place them on the grill, put them on a sheet pan under the broiler for two minutes on each side. Grilled Shrimp Cocktail perfect to serve at parties, and as a first course for dinner as well. Pick your pleasure.

  Whatever suits your taste. I have made something similar and made the sauce the day before so the flavors marry. Then served with the shrimp right off the grill for a happy hour event. Personally I will eat them any way they are being served!
