Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Shrimp

In a large pot, combine water, lemon slices, bay leaves, and Old Bay seasoning. Bring to a boil over high heat.

2. Cook the Shrimp

Once boiling, add the jumbo shrimp to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

3. Ice Bath

Remove the shrimp from the pot and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.

4. Prepare the Cocktail Sauce

In a mixing bowl, combine ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well.

5. Serve

Drain the shrimp from the ice bath, arrange on a platter, and serve with the cocktail sauce on the side.
