½ cup butter, melted
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch ground black pepper
2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup dry white wine
16 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, with tails


In a medium bowl; mix crushed crackers, breadcrumbs and garlic powder. In a small bowl, blend butter and Worcestershire sauce. Mix blended butter, pepper and Parmesan cheese into the cracker mixture. Stir in white wine, using only enough to hold together the mixture.

Preheat oven to 400^.

Butterfly the shrimp using a sharp knife, and arrange backside up in a large baking dish. Stuff shrimp with heaping tablespoons of the cracker mixture.

Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until cracker mixture is lightly browned, shrimps are opaque, and the tails have curled.
