Preparation
Prepare the Shrimp
Peel and devein the jumbo shrimp, leaving the tails on for presentation. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Wrap the Shrimp
Take one slice of bacon and wrap it around each shrimp, ensuring it covers the shrimp evenly. Secure the bacon with a toothpick if necessary.
Season the Shrimp
Drizzle olive oil over the wrapped shrimp and season with salt and black pepper.
Grilling
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Shrimp
Place the bacon-wrapped shrimp on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Remove from Grill
Once cooked, carefully remove the shrimp from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serving
Plate the Dish
On a large serving plate, arrange the grilled shrimp alongside a cup of white rice and a cup of pinto beans.
Add Dipping Sauces
Serve with small bowls of garlic aioli, spicy cocktail sauce, lemon herb butter, and sweet chili sauce for dipping.
