Red Lobster Endless Shrimp offers new and secret menu items

What can make Red Lobster Endless Shrimp even tastier? New and secret menu items could have you making several visits to your local restaurant.

Have you been counting the days to Red Lobster Endless Shrimp? The annual event is back and this year the shrimp celebration is even tastier. From a new offering to secret menu items, everyone better come hungry to this food event.

While Red Lobster has numerous, tasty shrimp dishes on the menu, this year’s Endless Shrimp promotion is offering something new. The Nashville Hot Shrimp is going to be available for a limited time.

According to the brand, the new shrimp dish features “crispy, corn-flake-crusted shrimp tossed in a sweet and spicy rub and drizzled with amber honey.” While “Nashville” style foods have been huge recently, this idea is an interesting expansion into a shrimp dish.

Looking at the description, the dish seems to focus on sweet and spicy. It appears the rub brings the flavor, but it shouldn’t be overly spicy. While the honey will tame the heat, the boldness needs to be present.

The use of corn-flake-crust is smart. That flavor should balance the heat and the honey. It is a nice nod to southern flavors, which is part of the Nashville heat appeal.

It is curious that there doesn’t seem to have a reference to pickles. Pickles, or pickle in a brine, is often a part of a Southern style flavor approach. But, pickles could overpower the delicate shrimp.

In addition to the Nashville Hot Shrimp, Red Lobster Endless Shrimp promotion is unveiling some secret menu items for those guests “in the know.” Crunchy Popcorn Shrimp, Coconut Shrimp Bites and Garlic-Grilled Shrimp Skewers are all part of the special secret menu.

Looking at these secret menu items, they show that consumers want both flavor and texture. From the crunch from the popcorn shrimp to the sweetness of the coconut, the variety is quite satisfying.

Of course, the Endless Shrimp is always a great day. For just $15.99, there are numerous shrimp dishes for guests to order. The five preparations include “Crispy Sriracha Honey Shrimp, Teriyaki Grilled Shrimp, Garlic Shrimp Scampi, Shrimp Linguini Alfredo and Hand Breaded Shrimp.” Spicy, savory and satisfying, this annual special offer is definitely a must for any shrimp lover.
