Maryland Steamed Shrimp - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    10 lbs fresh shrimp
    1 lemon
    1 cup Old Bay Seasoning
    6 (12 ounce) cans beer (or bottled really doesn't matter)
    1/2 cup white vinegar
    1 tablespoon kosher salt
Preparation
    In a large pot pour in the beer, vinegar, salt, and lemon (sliced in half) and bring to a rapid boil.
    Place a steamer rack in the bottom of the pot and cover with a layer of shrimp.
    Sprinkle the Old Bay Seasoning over the layer and repeat until all of the shrimp are in the pot.
    Cover tightly and let steam for 10 minutes until all of the shrimp have turned a bright red.
    Remove the shrimp and allow to cool slightly.
