If you want juicy, flavorful shrimp, you've got to grill them with the shells on. They add so much more flavor to the shrimps, and they protect the delicate skin from the brutal fire.
You need plenty of seasoning on top of the olive oil and butter. I add plenty of salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, lemon juice etc. Shrimp have a mild flavor so they take on whatever flavor you're serving them with. I also love using a seafood seasoning that has everything listed above plus more!!
Shrimp are very tender and juicy on their own so if you marinate them it isn't to tenderize them. It's to give them some extra flavor. Go ahead and choose bold flavorings for your shrimp marinade. Fresh lemon juice and lime juice are both great choices for the acid.
