Gr8 Do-Ahead Tip:
The cocktail sauce can be made up to a week ahead of time and kept in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.
Gr8 Tip:
I have purchased a bag of frozen raw shrimp already deveined and peeled. Thaw according to package instructions before roasting.
This cocktail sauce will also be delicious with shrimp grilled on the barbecue for those outdoor gatherings.
