I don't even boil em. I bring to rolling boil, add the shrimp and cut the fire. Start sampling after about 10 minutes, and pull when you think they're perfect. Usually 18ish minutes


This, while soaking, taste test the smallest ones, when the little ones are done pull um out.

if they are hard to peel, there is a 100% chance that you have overcooked them...shrimp cook unbelievably fast....looks to me like every method posted here would work...

I personally like to bring the seasoned water to a boil, turn it off, and drop in the shrimp...watch them very closely and test one every few minutes...if they are easy to peel, but you want more spice, just add in some ice to stop the cooking and let them soak a little longer...

honestly, just buy a pack of Louisina Fish Fry Products seafood boil and follow the directions on the back...

remember, when you think they are done, they are probably overdone....
