How to Store Leftovers
It’s very important to properly store shrimp before and after grilling them. Follow these guidelines for safely storing shrimp:
Refrigerator: 1-2 days raw, 3-4 days grilled Freezer: 3-6 months raw, 3 months grilled
To reheat grilled shrimp from frozen: Thaw in the fridge, keeping no more than 3-4 days, before reheating. Do not refreeze once frozen and thawed.
