Combine all ingredients expect shrimp in a shallow dish; mix well.

I have not let them marinate over night yet.. but going to give it a try.
Remove shrimp from marinade, reserving marinade. Place shrimp on
skewers. Grill over medium-hot coals 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
basting frequently with marinade.
I usually put a couple of small pieces of Mesquite or Oak on the
coals before putting the shrimp on..
Be careful when basting because the oil will make lots of flames..
ending up with burnt shrimp.. The tails will burn the most..
