I always use frozen and deveined jumbo shrimp to prepare my shrimp recipes. Cooking shrimp is easier, unlike chicken, salmon, or any other meat that should be cooked at the right temperature for safety. Cooking frozen shrimp will make sure that you have tender and juicier shrimp and prevent overcooking. From my experience, jumbo shrimp is harder to overcook and has an amazing texture. But if you are on a budget, feel free to go for smaller ones :-)
