Steps:
- 1. Pre cook the bacon slightly in the microwave for maybe 50 seconds. You want to do this step so the bacon and shrimp cook the same length of time,
- 2. Put paper towels on a plate, single layer of bacon, cover with paper towels. Repeat until all bacon is pre cooked.
- 3. Peel and devein shrimp, or buy them that way.
- 4. Put blue cheese crumbles in a small bowl
- 5. In the space the shrimp was deveined, put a rounded teaspoon of cream cheese in. The individual packets work well here, cut the end off and you have a mini piping bag.
- 6. Dip the filled shrimp, cream cheese side down into the blue cheese crumbles, the blue cheese will stick to the cream cheese.
- 7. Wrap each shrimp in a slice of bacon, secure with a toothpick, and place in a single layer on a large platter. Repeat for all shrimp.
- 8. Sprinkle hot sauce over all, sprinkle with dill weed.
- 9. Deep fat fry in small batches until golden, maybe 4 minutes per batch.
- 10. Seve with prepared Ranch or Blue cheese dressing.
