Last night was our second annual Shrimp Boil.
The Sweet Corn is ripe and the temps are hot but always a fun time and good food.

Looks awesome man! We did one 4th of July...they are always a good time and everyone has a blast. Yours looks a little more civilized though haha...we just dump it on old newpaper and stand around the table and munch down. Cold beer, hot sauce, and paper towels are the only things provided!

Ishi,
What all is in there?
Do you put it all in at once, or in what order & times do you add each item?
What temp & how long?
No wonder I never did this---It's all a secret!!!

Nope it’s no secret. Sometimes I get in a hurry:rolleyes: Here are the ingredients and the schedule.
Items for the boil

1 lb butter minimum

Lemons

Franks Red Hot Sauce

Zatarians concentrated Shrimp Boil liquid

Zatarians Shrimp Boil in a bag

Red Potatoes quartered

Smoked Link Sausage

Sweet Corn

Raw Shrimp shelled and deveined

Put lemons and seasonings in the pot and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and boil 8 minutes then add sausages and boil another 5 minutes. Then add sweet corn and boil another 7 minutes then add Shrimp and boil another 3 minutes. Pull the strainer pot out and drain.

Dump the Shrimp Boil contents into a pan and pour the melted butter mixed with Franks Red Hot Sauce over the boil. Add hot sauce to your liking to the melted butter.

There were six of us feasting.
I used 3 lbs red potatoes
4 lemons
4 smoked ringed sausages
13–14 ears of sweet corn broke in half
2 bags of big shrimp

We had enough for at least 3-4 more people but I always make more than enough:)

Anytime Bear. Just remember you need a good burner to get back to a boil ASAP after each ingredient is put in. If it lags the potatoes can get to mushy and the sausages can explode..... not good;)
