The hubby and I both really enjoyed the sweet, tangy taste of this recipe. I cut the honey down by half and found it very yummy.

Absolutely loved this recipe, but because I did not have lime juice, I used lemon juice, and like others used cajun seasoning, as I did not have jerk seasoning. I used the exact amount of ingredients with one lb. of shrimp, marinated for five hours,and broiled these shrimp in my convection oven four minutes on each side 400 degrees. Well, these were delicious, and perfectly cooked; loved the spicy/sweet combo. This will replace my other shrimp recipe. Also, did not use skewers, just put them in a broiler pan close to fire, which added a wonderful char broiled flavor. Cannot wait to make these again!

This will wake up your mouth! At first I was skeptical about the lime juice/honey mix as I've tried that as a marinade from a different recipe with less than stellar results. But adding some jerk seasoning and hot sauce takes it to an entirely new level. Instead of purchasing jerk seasoning, mix together these common pantry items: 1 Tbs onion powder, 2 tsp brown sugar, 1 1/2 tsp allspice, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp each: ground ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, 1/4 tsp each: nutmeg, garlic powder, black pepper, salt-if using (yield ~3 Tbs).

I could not find any jerk seasoning, so I also substituted Cajun seasoning. Personally, I really liked this, a very good balance of flavors. My husband however did not like this, as he thought that the flavors masked the flavor of the shrimp too much. (He does tend to like things pretty plain though!)

good taste. I added a lot more of the spice and some chopped jalapeno to make it spicier. I do wish it wasn't so runny, I would love to keep some on the side for dipping the shrimp but it's not quite thick enough.

This is so yummy! I couldn't find jerk seasoning so I used a jerk sauce in place of the seasoning. I'm making them again tonight.

Absolutely delicious! I didn't have jerk spice so I used cajun and they were so yummy. I marinated the shrimp overnight and the flavor was fabulous.

I followed the recipe exactly and the shrimp cooked perfectly (although I think I only grilled them a total of about 4 minutes and they were done). However, I found the shrimp WAY too sweet. Granted, the recipe calls for honey, and the description said tangy and sweet, but it tasted way too sugary for me. I guess I was thinking it would have just a little sweetness like jerk-flavored food. It needed much less honey and more soy sauce or something. I had trouble with the shrimp sticking to the grill, so more than 1 tsp. of oil would help. I won't make this again.

Scrumptious!! Sweet and spicy....and even the Hubster noticed and loved these. Very nice marinade...will definately make again. I did use Caribbean Jerk Seasoning...dont know if there is a difference or not with just plain Jerk Seasoning. Loved these, grilled perfectly. Thanks!
