Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add a generous amount of kosher salt.
While the water is heating, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and cold water.
Add the raw shrimp to the boiling water and cook for about 2 minutes, until they are pink and opaque.
Using a spider strainer, immediately remove the shrimp from the boiling water and plunge them into the ice bath to stop the cooking process.
Once the shrimp are completely chilled, set them aside.
In a small bowl, combine the prepared horseradish, sour cream, hot sauce, spicy seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and the juice of half a lemon.
Add the ketchup to the bowl.
Mix all the sauce ingredients until well combined.
Serve the chilled shrimp with the homemade cocktail sauce and lemon wedges for garnish.
