Grandma's Shrimp

2-3 pounds of large shrimp (uncooked) We use the easy peel shrimp - no deveining needed 1 large lemon - sliced 2 cups vegetable oil 1/4 cup Texas Pete hot sauce 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay 1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley (or dried if you can't find fresh)

Peel shrimp & devein if necessary; bring enough sliced lemon & enough water to cover shrimp to a boil. Add shrimp and cook for 3 - 5 minutes. Drain and rinse shrimp with very cold water to stop them from cooking. Put shrimp in a bowl (I use a Tupperware type bowl with a lid and gently shake it with the lid on to stir). Combine all other ingredients in a separate bowl; beat with a whisk; pour over shrimp & toss well. Cover and chill shrimp for at least 8 hours. Stir shrimp a couple of time while it's chilling. One hour before serving, drain the shrimp WELL in a colander and serve in a bowl. Enjoy!
