Ingredients:
1 pound uncooked shrimp – peeled
1 package bacon
brown sugar
cayenne pepper
Directions:
Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and spray with pam (lightly).
Cut bacon strips in half
Mix brown sugar and cayenne at this ratio: 4 Tablespoons brown sugar (light or dark) and 1/2 t cayenne pepper **
Wrap each shrimp with a piece of bacon
Lay on baking sheet with about 1 inch between

** You can adjust this to your liking depending on how spicy you prefer. We like it with more brown sugar and just a little zing from the cayenne.
