"This recipe is from Taste of Home by Paul Wargaski. If you wish it is so easy to get the potatoes cooked the day before and the skewers made in the AM then it only takes 10 minutes to grill the skewers. Simple lovely flavor combination. If you wish BBQ these - grill over medium-high heat 5-7 minutes until shrimp are pink turning over half way through"
