Why I Love This Boursin Stuffed Smoked Shrimp

Just a handful of ingredients
Feels fancy without trying
Great for parties or date nights
Fun and different dish to try on the smoker

Okay I am not going to lie, this idea is not my creation. We used to serve something like this at the Italian restaurant I work at and I loved it. They took it off of the menu years ago and I have been craving it. So I thought I would toss it on the smoker and share with you! This shrimp recipe is so good- you just MUST try it lol.

Ingredients Needed for This Smoked Shrimp Recipe

🦐 Large Raw Shrimp – You want big ones here so they can hold the cheese. Make sure they’re deveined and ready to go. I prefer tail on but tail off works, too.

🦐 Garlic & Herb Boursin Cheese – The star of the whole dish. It melts into the shrimp and gives that creamy, herby bite. You’ll divide the package for stuffing and optional dipping.

🦐 Prosciutto – Thin, salty, and perfect for wrapping. It crisps up slightly in the smoker and keeps all that cheese tucked inside.

🦐 SPG Seasoning – Just a simple mix of salt, pepper, and garlic, but it adds the perfect finishing touch.

🦐 Balsamic Glaze – A little drizzle at the end gives the shrimp a sweet-tangy finish that ties everything together. They sell cheap little bottles at most grocery stores.

How to Make Boursin Stuffed Shrimp on the Traeger

Step 1: Prep the shrimp. Go ahead and defrost your shrimp. I usually just put them in a bowl in the sink with cold water. Use a small, sharp knife to make a little slit down the back. Nothing fancy—just enough space to tuck in that creamy Boursin.

Step 2: Add the Boursin. Grab about 3 oz of the cheese and start stuffing! A small spoon works great here. Press it right into the slit so it stays put. It doesn’t have to be perfect—promise.

Step 3: Wrap in prosciutto. Now for the fun part. Slice your prosciutto into thin strips and wrap each shrimp like a little present. The prosciutto helps hold the cheese inside and adds that salty bite.

Step 4: Season and get it ready. Place all your wrapped shrimp into a small cast-iron pan or any baking dish you love. Give everything a light sprinkle of SPG seasoning. Just enough to wake everything up.

Step 5: Time to smoke. Pop the pan into your smoker set at 225°F. Let it go for 1 hour while the shrimp soak up all that smoky goodness. Seriously—your backyard is going to smell amazing.

Step 6: Add more cheese (if you want). If you’re in a cheesy mood, drop the rest of the Boursin right in the center of the pan during the last few minutes. Let it melt so everyone can scoop and dip.

Step 7: Finish it off. Once the shrimp are cooked through, pull them off the smoker and give them a drizzle of balsamic glaze. It’s the perfect sweet, tangy finish. Serve warm and enjoy every bite.

Additions & Substitutions

Not into prosciutto? Bacon works great and gets extra crispy.
Want more heat? Add red pepper flakes or Cajun seasoning before smoking.
Swap Boursin for any soft cheese you like — goat cheese or herb cream cheese both work.

Can you make this Stuffed Shrimp recipe in the oven?

Absolutely! Just follow the instructions and then bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes depending on the size of your shrimp.
