One or two at a time, hold the shrimp by the tail and dip them into the remaining sauce, then lay the shrimp on the barbecue rack directly over the coals. Cook for 2 minutes, then turn with metal tongs and cook for 2 more minutes until the sauce is starting to brown. Serve the shrimp with the reserved barbecue sauce on the side.
