1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a large pot, bring water and salt to a boil. Add the colossal shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Immediately transfer the shrimp to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them chill for about 5 minutes.
2
Make the Cocktail Sauce
In a medium bowl, combine ketchup, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Mix well and adjust salt to taste.
3
Serve
Drain the shrimp from the ice water and serve chilled on a platter with cocktail sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
