Several years ago we visited O'steen's in St Augustine FL famous for their fried shrimp. They were featured in a show on the Food Channel. Best fried shrimp I've ever had. Found the recipe on line and have tried and it turned out great. Key is using cracker vs bread crumbs, panko or corn meal for the breading. Makes a huge difference. I used the cracker meal breading in a bag found in the grocery store/seafood section.
Give it a try. Don't think you'll be sorry.
