Ingredients:

Serving

2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tbsp cajun seasoning
2 tbsp canola oil
6 cloves garlic , smashed and peeled
1 12- oz light-bodied beer
juice of 1 lemon
1 8- oz bottle clam juice
1/4 cup hot sauce , preferably tabasco
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp apple-cider vinegar
2 dried bay leaves
1 tsp whole black peppercorns
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter , cut into cubes
1 crusty french baguette

Directions:

Toss the shrimp with the Cajun seasoning in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Heat the canola oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, toss in the garlic, and sauté until golden, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the shrimp to the pan, and cook until they turn bright pink, about 1 minute more. Remove the shrimp from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside on a plate. Pour in the beer, lemon juice, clam juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple-cider vinegar, bay leaves, and peppercorns; bring to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes, until the liquid is slightly thickened.
Whisk the cubes of butter into the sauce, and once it's melted, add the shrimp to finish cooking, about 2 minutes more. Serve the shrimp and sauce in bowls with loads of crusty bread for dipping.
