I haven't cooked them much, but whatever you do, don't overcook them and don't over salt. They tend to be salty. I think I googled to learn about them because they're so different from regular shrimp.

For the love of God don't fry them.

Sautee with garlic and butter and lemon. Finish with herbs

Boil with red pepper for about 6 minutes, serve with melted butter.

Ended up getting buzzed and cooking them in small batches a few different ways...

Cajun garlic butter
Garlic, white wine, butter, cream, fresh grated parm
Fish sauce, soy sauce (dark and light), oyster sauce, sugar, and mirin mix
Butter w/ garlic to taste as much of the shrimp as possible

Royal reds are absurdly delicious

Where would one procure Royal Reds in Louisiana? I live in Terrebonne, but I only see white and brown shrimp here.

I get Royal Reds when I am on the Gulf Coast in AL and FL, but I never see them in this area. I know they are deep water - but I never see them here. Someone must catch them locally. I prefer Royal Reds to brown and white...

Nope. They only catch them off the continental shelf from Bama to the Keys I believe. They are crazy deep.

I know a couple captains from Chauvin who chase them after the Sea-Bob run. They drag for them from Tampa down to the Keys.
