Fried Buffalo Shrimp

I pretty much love anything that's fried and drowned in buffalo sauce.  If you're like me, then this buffalo shrimp recipe is for you.  The buffalo sauce is simply made of only buttle, a hint of vinegar, and Louisiana hot sauce.  You can use whatever hot sauce you'd like though.
