Chef Dom and Uncle Junior, do you have a seat at the table for me ❤
Shrimp cocktail... My absolute favorite.

[vadaboy]

You guys are the best. There is nothing like fresh caught gulf shrimp. Try two bay leaves and a few whole peppercorns in the boiling water.

[susanburnett]

I going to try adding lemon to the water for the shrimp!

[johnkovalicky]

So okay brothers, well executed shrimp cocktail! I make the cocktail sauce same way! I use Golds horseradish ( I'm sure you have used it ) only thing I put a good amount of pepper flakes in the mix and let it sit in fridge, even over night. Any left .... yeah rite..lol BTW nice gulf shrimp!!❤

[michaelrichter]

Make mine the same, sometimes with some fresh chopped basil too if I remember. LOTS of horseradish in mine for sure just like Dom.

[Wheels_NYC]

Great recipe! My cocktail sauce is very similar, I add lemon zest... Try it next time, it adds a bright freshness without diluting the sauce. I love my horseradish, Gold's is my go-to. I add it into most every dipping/burger sauce I make! Now I'm craving shrimp cocktail in the middle of the night, and I can't even do that anymore in NYC. Be safe & well brothers 🙏❤

[robertstern]

Golds horseradish ( not the creamy one), remember from Brooklyn? I add a bit of Tabasco sauce and salt & pepper 🌶 . Enjoy 😉

[katrinac]

I could eat that whole tray!! Looks so good!!

[dedelin]

Oh heck yeah! That looks delicious. Great job guys!

[lawrenceburchett]

[eswillie]

Simple, delicious. I woulda used some Cajun seasoning or blackening spice, and also some hot horseradish that lives up to it's name.
