Directions
Pre-heat grill to medium high heat.

Mix the first six ingredients together in a small bowl.

On wood or metal skewers, arrange the shrimp, onions and mushrooms, using the mushroom heads as the "end caps." 

Brush the skewers with the sauce and place directly onto the grill or on a flat BBQ tray. Cook until shrimp are pink, frequently basting them with the sauce.

Sweet, tangy with a bit of kick, these babies grilled up beautifully even though the tails burned a bit. But, since the tail skin was still on, the meat on the inside turned out just fine.
