We love to eat this smoky, spicy shrimp and sausage with head-on, peel and eat shrimp because we're big on headfat and all the extra flavor you get from cooking the shrimp in its shell. But I get that not everyone is up to their food looking back at them, or having to work so hard to get to it, so if you end up going the peeled, beheaded and deveined route, you can reduce the amount of shrimp by half a pound or so. Or don't. Because this stuff is really tasty, and you'll probably end up eating it all at some point anyways. :)
