| I have a really good marinade I bought that I want to use on shrimp. I have cooked frozen ones in the freezer. Can I defrost, marinate and then grill them even though they are technically already cooked? |

| Why not just buy uncooked frozen shrimp? I'm afraid they will be overlooked and rubbery if you recook them. I've never done this before, just guessing! |

I agree with the PP. Buy uncooked frozen shrimp. I get mine at the WF, peeled and deveined. Usually, I soak them in hot water, changing it frequently, until they are defrosted. I don't spend more than 30 min on this. I'm in the kitchen at the time and don't leave them out defrosting. Then I marinate and grill.
I'm no superman in the kitchen, but this system has worked for me. |

| Of course you can use the ones you already have. Just thaw, marinate and put on skewers to brown them and warm them up on the grill. |

Don't re-cook shrimp. If you cook seafood, eat it within 24-36hrs (6-9hrs if not refrigerated).
And yes, thaw in cold water. Warm/hot water will COOK the shrimp (turn red). |
