Directions
Combine all ingredients except shrimp.
Cook, stirring frequently 35 to 50 minutes.
Allow to cool.
Refrigerate sauce 1 week to allow flavors to truly blend.
Marinate shrimp in sauce a minimum of 1 hour.
Arrange shrimp on barbecuing skewers.
Barbecue, basting every minute with left over sauce.
Should be done in about 5 minutes.
Shrimp are done when the flesh turns from pink to white.
Do not overcook!!! Overcooked shrimp are tough and chewy.
