I was given a CacusGrill to test in exchange for an honest review. I received no further compensation. All opinions are my own and not representative of the other bloggers participating in this Earth Day post.
BBQ Grilled Shrimp cook up fast and make great sandwiches. Who doesn’t love food on a stick? Sustainable caught shrimp cooked on a 100% recyclable, single use cardboard charcoal grill!
Happy Earth Day everyone! Today is the day to practice what we preach and be kind to Mother Earth. It’s actually really easy to do.
Just remember these three words: Reduce Recycle Reuse
Celebrating Earth Day doesn’t mean break out the tie-dye and eat microgreens for a day. It means becoming more aware of how you and those around you affect our planet’s well-being.
Here’s some suggestions to get you started.
Leave no footprints. That includes focusing on doing more business with environmentally friendly businesses.
I’m a big fan of companies that practice sustainability. Only take what you need and leave the area better than when you found it.
One of those companies is CacusGrill. These handy portable single-use cardboard grills are easy to use and are totally recyclable.
From CasusGrill–>
Here are five ways CasusGrill makes for more healthy and environmentally friendly grilling:
It replaces dangerous and toxic one-pound propane cylinders that are among an estimated 254 million tons of trash Americans throw away each year.
The charcoal is made from sustainably sourced bamboo sawdust and produces up to 50 percent less CO2 emissions than conventional grills.
Clean, single-use bamboo grill grates replace metal grills that inevitably get rusty, charred, and caked with burned food.
Flame-free heat prevents burned meat associated with carcinogens. Instead of burned stripes, the bamboo grill leaves light strips where it touches the food.
When you’re done, simply douse it and toss it in the trash, burn it in the campfire, or bury it in good conscience. In six months, it will completely disintegrate.
For my Earth Day friendly recipe I chose using sustainable seafood. A simple grilled shrimp with barbecue sauce on a pretzel roll. Add lettuce and tomato if you please!
12 large shrimp skewered
1 teaspoon Old Bay or favorite seafood seasoning
For the sauce:
Whisk together
1 6-ounce can tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon smoked salt
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Sprinkle seasoning on shrimp skewers. Place shrimp on grill. Brush with sauce. Grill 3 minutes, flip. Brush other side with sauce and grill about 2 minutes until fully cooked and opaque.

You can substitute any spring veggies you like. I found this combo to be my favorite! I used purchased marinated artichokes, but feel free to use fresh or canned artichoke hearts if you like.
