I'm not sure what drew me to this recipe when I found it on the interwebs. When I put the marinade together today I kept thinking I better have a back up meal planned because this was just weird.
Hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce? It made me think of a throw back to BBQ shrimp from New Orleans. Bottom line, this recipe was awesome! Awesome. It's a perfect flavor combination. Super easy marinade to throw together and most people have these ingredients in their pantry.
The hot sauce part of this recipe I didn't think through ahead of time. I should have bought something like Frank's. Instead I used El Tapatio, which was fine in my opinion. Franks would give a different flavor profile for sure. Tabasco would be too vinegar-y I think, I'd stay away from that.
