This Lowcountry Boil recipe is a South Carolina classic that you can pour out onto a newspaper lined table, crack a beer and go to town.

Ingredients

  • 4 lemons (halved)
  • 2 onions (unpeeled and quartered)
  • 3 oz half of a container Old Bay seasoning
  • 3 pounds baby red and Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 package (1 lb kielbasa, sliced into chunks)
  • 6 ears corn (halved)
  • 2 1/2 pounds extra-large shrimp (21/25 count)

Directions

  1. 1

    Bring the lemons, onions, and Old Bay, and 3 quarts of water to a rolling boil.

  2. 2

    Add the potatoes and let cook for 10 minutes. I check to make sure that they are getting tender. You still have some cooking time, but I get so mad when I under cook my potatoes.

  3. 3

    Add the kielbasa.

  4. 4

    Add the corn. Boil for 10 more minutes.

  5. 5

    Finally, add the shrimp and cook for 3 minutes. The shrimp will be pink.

  6. 6

    When the shrimp are cooked, strain the liquid from the pot. Put the boil into bowls.
