How do I do it then?

Boil, then peel and devein?


YES I doubt you get head on shrimp, but if you do leave the heads on as well.

Season water heavy with Crab Boil and bring to a boil..then add the shrimp

Timing is learned do to pot size, burner size and shrimp size.

But at best 3 minutes total from adding the shrimp. I usually let it return to a boil then cut the fire and let soak 10-15 minutes.

But # 1 rule.... DO NOT OVER COOK THE SHRIMP !

start taste testing the smaller shrimp after you cut the fire off.

Good luck and Merry Christmas

to me that would be over cooked shrimp unless you chilled the water right as you cut the fire.
