Ingredients
Instructions
Create the Sauce Base
In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron is great) over medium-high heat, combine the Worcestershire sauce, beer, minced garlic, lemon juice, Creole seasoning, black pepper, rosemary, hot sauce, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Cook the Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the boiling sauce in a single layer. Cook for 2-4 minutes, stirring or shaking the pan occasionally, just until the shrimp turn pink and begin to curl. Be careful not to overcook them.
Emulsify the Butter
Reduce the heat to low and begin adding the cold butter cubes, a few at a time. Stir or whisk continuously until all the butter has melted and the sauce becomes creamy and emulsified. This process is key to the sauce's signature texture.
Serve Immediately
Remove the skillet from the heat and discard the bay leaf. Pour the shrimp and all of the glorious sauce into a large shallow bowl. Serve immediately with plenty of crusty French bread for dipping.
