Lowcountry Boil
- 2 to 2 1/2 pounds fully cooked smoked sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/4 cup Old Bay Seasoning, or more to taste
- 16 to 20 small new potatoes
- 8 to 10 ears corn, shucked, silk removed, ears broken in half
- 4 to 5 pounds large fresh shrimp (16-to-20-count size), shell on
- 3 tablespoons salt
- Tartar sauce
- Cocktail sauce
- 3 lemons, quartered
- Fill a large pot with enough water to cover all the ingredients, and bring to a boil.
- Add the sausage and Old Bay Seasoning, and boil for about 20 minutes so the sausage can flavor the water.
- Carefully taste for seasoning; add more Old Bay if desired.
- Add the potatoes and boil for about 15 minutes, until nearly tender.
- Add the corn and boil for about 10 minutes.
- Finally, add the shrimp and cook for 3 minutes or until they are cooked through.
- Drain immediately and serve on an oversize platter or on a table covered with newspaper.
