Cook and stir shrimp frequently until they become opaque and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.

Hot 4 Habanero Strawberry Cedar Planked Salmon
Cedar Plank - Can be purchased at a grocery or gourmet food store
1 salmon fillet, 1-1/2 lbs
4-6 Tbl Jamtastic Hot 4 Habanero Strawberry Jam
2 Garlic Cloves, crushed
Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper
This will be the best salmon you have ever had! Our Favorite!
Soak the cedar plank in water for about 60 minutes. Set up the grill for direct grilling on medium-high. When ready to cook, place the plank on the hot grate and leave it until there is a smell of smoke, about 3 to 4 minutes. Brush a bit of olive oil over plank. Place salmon fillet on plank, skin side down. Brush fillet with olive oil. Sprinkle crushed garlic, salt & pepper on fillet. Liberally brush on the jam! Reduce heat to medium. Cover the grill and cook until the fish is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 135 degrees F., about 35 minutes. Check the plank occasionally. If the edges start to catch fire, mist with water, or move the plank to a cooler part of the grill. Apply jam throughout cooking process, 1-2 additional times. When salmon is cooked through remove planked salmon from grill and set on serving plate. Using a spatula, cut and remove salmon to individual plates. Serves 4
Jamtastic's Bourbon Peach Grilled Chops
4 - Bone in, thick cut pork chops
Olive Oil
Jamtastic Bourbon Peach Jam
Salt & Pepper
Prepare an outdoor grill with a high heat for both direct and indirect grilling. Brush the pork chops on both sides with oil and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside for 15 minutes.
Grill the chops over the heat until brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Move them to the cool side of the grill or lower heat and brush with some of the Bourbon Peach Jam. Cook the chops, covered, turning and basting with jam every 5 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted crosswise into the chops registers 140 degrees F. Remove from grill. Let rest for 10 minutes. Brush additional jam on chops right before serving. Fantastic! Serves 4

Combine 1-1/2 cups lemon juice, 1/4-1/2 cups sugar, 8 cups water. Mix well. Add 4-6 Tbl of Raspberry Maple Jam. Mix again and serve over ice. Makes about 10 cups.
