does anyone make BBQ shrimp with the shrimp peeled ahead of time? I'll eat it any which way, but my family wants it deveined.

I've seen it done peeled. You lose the benefit of the flavor from the shells and particularly the heads if you're using head on shrimp. Many folks will use peeled and deveined to make a bbq shrimp type sauce to put over grits, for example.

In the Gordon Ramsey thread posted recently, he left the tails and heads on, but deveined and peeled the shrimp bodies.
