Instructions

Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat. To prepare shrimp for shrimp spread, peel and de-vein shrimp then place a single layer of shrimp in foil packet and season with salt. Combine liquid crab boil with Chardonnay, pour over shrimp then seal packet for steaming on grill. Place foil packet on grill for 5-7 minutes. Remove from grill, and pour contents of packet into small bowl and set aside to cool. To prepare shrimp spread, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, chopped green onions, lemon juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire in a medium sized bowl and set aside. To prepare remoulade sauce, combine lemon juice, vinegar, Creole mustard, horseradish, salt, black pepper, paprika, cayenne pepper and green onions in medium size bowl and whisk together. To prepare patties, place ground chuck in large bowl and incorporate prepared remoulade sauce and bread crumbs. Mix together and form into six patties. Brush the medium-hot grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once, until done to preference, approximately 5 minutes on each side for medium. While patties are cooking, prepare 8 Bibb lettuce leaves and 8 tomato slices. Drain shrimp, chop coarsely and add to spread mixture. Prepare rolls for grilling by cutting in half. When patties are ready, remove from grill and place prepared rolls on edge of grill, cut side down, to toast lightly. When rolls are toasted, remove from grill and coat each cut side with shrimp spread, using all of the mixture evenly between the twelve sides. Place a patty on each bottom roll, then top with lettuce leaf and tomato slice and season tomato with salt and pepper. Carefully place the top roll on top of the seasoned tomato slice and serve. Makes 6 burgers.
