Chef's Notes
Do not rush the marinade time, but do not exceed 4 hours either, or the acid in the lime juice will literally begin to cook and mushify the delicate shrimp texture before it even hits the fire.
Pro Tip
Always pierce the shrimp twice—once near the head and once near the tail—onto dual parallel skewers if you have them, so they never spin around uselessly when you try to flip them.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Leaving the shrimp on the grill just one minute too long transforms your expensive crustaceans into tough, rubbery erasers that could literally bounce off the plate and break a window.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I told the King our shrimp were taking a tequila bath, and he immediately tried to jump into the marinade bag himself.
The Culinary Science
Tequila contains alcohol which helps fat-soluble flavor molecules in the cumin and garlic salt penetrate the shrimp flesh much faster than oil or water alone.

Delicate Protein Preservation
Storage Science
Cool quickly and refrigerate in an airtight container immediately. Seafood degrades rapidly; consume within 24 to 48 hours maximum.
Reheating Science
DO NOT microwave on high. Seafood proteins tighten and become rubbery when rapidly heated. Reheat gently in a covered pan over low heat with a splash of water or stock to create gentle steam, preserving moisture.
