I haven't tried this one yet, but if it's near as good at the BBQ Shrimp at Pascal's in New Orlean's then it's a winner. I'll let you know.

1 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup bar-b-que sauce (your choice)
1/2 cup chopped onions
3 ounces Jack Daniels

I get so tired of searching for my favorite recipes so I thought I would post them here. Now they will all be in one place for me and family and friends to find. It may take me a while to get them all on here but I'm working on it! Even though I have some of these pinned in Pinterest this is my "go-to" place when I am hunting for my favorite recipes.

Crawfish/Shrimp Cornbread Dressing
1 pound small shrimp
1 pound Louisiana crawfish
1 bell pepper chopped
2 stalks celery chopped
1 onion chopped
1 clove of garlic minced
1 bunch scallions (green onions)
2 1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 tsp poultry seasonings
Tony's seasoning to taste or your choice Cajun seasoning
double recipe of homemade cornbread
Make your corn bread ahead of time so it can cool. I make my own chicken broth by boiling approximately 3 ribbed chicken breast with onions, bell peppers and celery in it. (I take the chicken out after done and refrigerate and keep for chicken salad). Crumble up your cornbread in a baking pan. Add chopped vegetables, crawfish, shrimp and broth including the cooked vegetables from the broth. Season with Tony's and poultry seasoning. Mix it well. You want it to be really wet. The cornbread will soak up alot of the juices. If there is not enough broth you can add milk to it. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 45 minutes. Remove the foil and cook about another 15 minutes to brown the top. The cooking time may vary as you do not want it to be dry. You want to make sure the dressing stays moist. Great with barbeque brisket as a side dish or stuffed in a bell pepper.

Sausage Fried Rice
I love this recipe! It makes a bunch too.
5 cups cold cooked rice (might need 6 cups)
1 pound bulk sausage spicy or mild
1 package cole slaw mix containing both the shredded cabbage and carrots or make your own
1/4 cup Soy sauce (may be more adjust to taste)
1 10 oz can bean sprouts drained
1 small bag frozen peas
4 or 5 eggs scrambled
3 stalks green onion using both the green and white part
Important: Do not use freshly made hot rice or the fried rice will turn out gummy. Cold leftover rice works perfect.
Brown the sausage, scramble the eggs and chopped the green onions before getting started on mixing the rice and other ingredients. Once this is done, get a large nonstick frying pan or electric skillet and coat it with olive oil.
Stir fry the cole slaw mix just until the cabbage is tender. Depending on the size of the frying pan, you might want to make the fried rice in two batches. If you do this, remove half of the stir fried cole slaw mix from the frying pan and use half of the following approximate amounts.
Add cold rice. Add some soy sauce to help break the rice upand give it some color, add browned sausage and mix well. Once the rice is broken up and well mixed, add the bean sprouts and frozen peas.
Mix well then add the scrambled eggs. Mix everything well and make sure the eggs are broken up and not in big chunks.
Season with pepper, as needed. Add more soy sauce until it tastes the way you want it to. The last thing you put in is the green onions. Add the chopped green onions and mix well.
