Equipment

Mixing bowl
pellet smoker

Ingredients

1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined with the tail on
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F.
Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel.
Add shrimp, oil, salt, and pepper to a medium bowl. Toss to coat the shrimp.
Add shrimp to skewers, so they don’t fall through the grill grates.
Place shrimp skewers on the pellet grill and smoke, covered, for 30 to 45 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.

Notes

Use larger shrimp. This will help prevent the shrimp from drying out while smoking.
I kept the seasoning pretty simple, so you can really tasty the smoky flavor, but feel free to add any seasonings you like.
