I just bought some new grill plates and tested them out with Margarita Shrimp. The nice thing is that you don't have to marinate shrimp all day or overnight. It only takes a couple of hours and you're go to go. While the shrimp marinates, you can be busy drinking margaritas. One of our family favorites is Eric's Avocado Margarita. Yes, I know it sounds weird, but once you've had one there is no turning back!
