                                        Brown Sugar Glaze

               1 cup brown sugar
               1 tbsp lime juice

               1 tbsp honey
               1 tbsp Chipotle sauce




               _____________________________________________________________

                                              Shrimp

               7 jumbo shrimp
               2 cups bread crumbs
               ½ cup fine shredded cheddar jack
               1 tsp seasoned salt
               7 halved Bread and Butter Jalapeno pickles
               7 bacon strips

                                         Lagniappe


               For the brown sauce combine all the ingredients, bring to a boil and let cool to room
               temperature

               For the bread stuffing, combine the bread crumbs and cheddar Jack; knead well so it
               will form a ball. Divide the mixture into as many shrimp as you have and shape into
               oblong balls. (If the mixture is too dry to form a ball just add some water.)

               Butterfly the shrimps and wrap the pickled jalapeno along the outside natural curve
               of the shrimp. Press the bread crumbs mixture in the belly of the shrimp and wrap
               with the bacon to hold everything together.

               Coat the shrimp’s with the molasses brown sauce and bake the shrimps for 15 minutes at 350.
               Remove from heat, coat with another coat of the brown sauce and return to the oven for
               another 5 minutes. Finish on a grill for a few minutes if you want a more charcoal taste, or
               serve as is.

               Serve with the warm brown sugar glaze on the side
