You will need a 10 by 13 deep dish glass pan and there we have it .

We're gonna first start by removing the shrimp head off of the shrimp and placing that into a bowl .

We're gonna peel the shell off of the shrimp tail and we're going to place the shrimp shell into the bowl with the shrimp hit .

And as you can see , there's that black string , you're going to pull that out and you're going to take your shrimp tail and place that into a separate bowl , add your shrimp tails into a strainer and rinse them off thoroughly with cold water .

As for your shrimp heads and shells , you can do anything you want with this .

You can take this and make a stock with it or if not place it into your freezer until you're ready to use it .

Here , we have 16 ounces of Velveeta cheese .

We're going to chop the cheese into medium size cubes pre your fire to medium high heat .

Turn your fire off , add your elbow metallo into a strainer and rinse with cold water .

Treat your fire to medium high heat in a medium sized pot at one pint of heavy whipping cream at room temperature and three tablespoons of unsalted butter that has come to a simmer .

At this time , you're gonna turn your fryer down from medium high to medium , a little heat .

Our mixture , it's at a simmer .

Now , we're going to add our 16 ounces of Velveeta cheese into the boiling hot cream .

And to that , we're going to add one cup of the shredded mild cheddar cheese , stir all your ingredients together .

You're going to let this simmer for about six minutes , stirring every two minutes or until the cheese has totally melted .

Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt , an optional a half a teaspoon of chef ha Dome seafood magic .
