Steps

  • 1

    When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 450°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

    450 ˚F / 232 ˚C

  • 2

    Meanwhile, make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic, and jalapeño and sauté until softened, 5-7 minutes. Stir in the Traeger Texas Spicy BBQ Sauce. Remove the pot from the heat and cover to keep warm.

  • 3

    Rinse the shrimp under cold running water, then drain and pat dry with paper towels. Transfer to a large bowl and gently toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil until well-coated, then season generously with salt and pepper.

  • 4

    Arrange the shrimp directly on the grill grates or in a grill basket. Close the lid and cook, flipping once, until the shrimp is firm, opaque and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side.

    450 ˚F / 232 ˚C
