Just a little factoid that may not interest anyone.
The Mr. B's version of BBQ shrimp which changed it from an oven baked dish to a pan sauce was developed by Gerard Maras, who may be one of the most important chefs to ever work in New Orleans. It is a genius adaption of taking a dish's flavor profile and making it better. The key is really shaking that pan as the butter emulsifies into the shrimp head fat and lemon sauce.
BO, what is Maras doing now? Last articles I see on him are about 2013.

I think he is still at hat cooking school, but not sure.

I wonder why his own restaurant didn't make it? I haven't looked to see if there are articles on that, though. I remember he was so well known when he was at Mr. B's.

Tip...
Add a measure of brown sugar to your sauce. I use @ 1 to 1.5 T per recipe (using the Prudhomme recipe as a base). You’ll get a little sweet to go with the hot, salty and sour flavors.
Tip...
I referenced sour above...be sure to use lemon juice and lemon zest (or slices) in the sauce. Pumps the flavor biggly.

Lot of factors as I recall. It’s amazing the amount of young, at that time, chefs who worked for him who went on to open their own places. Burgau, Harrell, the Rushing’s, Harris, and on and on.
