Grill the shrimp for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until they are opaque. When the shrimp are done, slide them off of the skewers onto the plastic wrap on top of the bowl of ice. After a few minutes turn the shrimp to cool both sides and to help stop the cooking process. When the shrimp are cool, transfer them to a plate covered with paper towels. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
To prepare the sauce, add the chili sauce, horseradish, lemon, and hot sauce to a small bowl and whisk them together. Serve 6 shrimp per guest with a dollop of sauce and a few lemon slices.
