How to Make Grilled Chilled Shrimp Rolls:
- Light the charcoal grill or preheat the gas grill to 350°F to 400°F (medium- high).
- Toss the shrimp with the oil in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Place the shrimp on a cooking grate, and grill for 2 minutes; turn and grill for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the shrimp from grill; cover and chill for 30 minutes.
- Combine the mayonnaise, mustard, celery seeds, red pepper, hot sauce, green onions, and red onion; mix well.
- Chop the cooled shrimp and add to the mayonnaise mixture; cover and chill until ready to use.
- Brush the inside of each roll with melted butter. Place on the cooking grate and grill until lightly toasted.
- Remove the toasted rolls and fill with the shrimp mixture.
