Serving

1 (12-oz) bottled or canned beer
2 tbsp crab boil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
2 lb shrimp, heads removed with shells on
1 tbsp essence , recipe follows
kicked up cocktail sauce, recipe follows

Directions:

In the base pot of a steamer, combine the beer, crab boil, and garlic and bring to a simmer. Put the steamer basket in place.
In a bowl, toss the shrimp with the Essence. Place the shrimp in the steamer basket, close the lid and steam until the shrimp are firm and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes, stirring the shrimp once to ensure even cooking.
Remove the basket with the shrimp and let sit until cool enough to handle. Turn out into a large serving bowl or onto a thick layer of newspapers spread on a table. Serve with the cocktail sauce for dipping.
