Preparation / Directions:
* shelled and with tails left on (3 pounds yields about 44 shrimp)
1. Place the shrimp in a large non-reactive bowl and season liberally with salt and Tabasco. In a small non-reactive bowl, combine the rum, lime juice, Worcestershire and cumin. Add the mixture to the shrimp, toss to blend, and refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour or until ready to cook.
2. Preheat the broiler. In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the butter and oil. When the butter begins to foam, add the garlic, cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, and set aside.
3. Remove the shrimp from the marinade (discard the marinade), transfer them to a shallow ovenproof dish that will fit them comfortably in a single layer or to individual ramekins, and spoon the garlic sauce evenly over them. Sprinkle the cracker meal on top.
4. Broil 4 inches from the heat source until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve at once.
