Amazing Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Shrimp

By: Ramey Bekish 
"My father and his Chinese 'brother's' recipe for the best deep fried shrimp, now famous in our town. If you have leftover bacon, don't worry; you can deep fry it and that's for you! For a sauce, ketchup and horseradish work great but these are great by them self!"
