Frogmore Stew
- 10 pounds (Up To 20 Pounds) Shrimp
- 20 pounds (up To 30 Pounds) Crab Legs
- 10 whole (Up To 20) Smoked Sausages, Cut Thick
- 30 whole (Up To 40) Small Frozen Ears Of Corn
- 10 pounds Red Potatoes
- 2-3 Bags Old Bay (each Bag Is Around 3 Ounces)
- Beer (a Few Cans) (optional)
- Salt
- Red Pepper Flakes
- Cumin
- Thyme
- Mashed Garlic Cloves, To Taste
- Bay Leaves
- Before you start, you will need a very, very large pot and a propane burner.
- Having this makes it much easier, but I have cooked frogmore stew in 2 separate pots on my stove.
- Fill the pot up with water just under halfway full.
- Place the pot on the burner.
- Pour in all of the seasoning (use generous amounts).
- Some people at this point would pour in a couple beers.
- You can do that too, if you want.
- Let all that get to a good boil.
- Add the potatoes first.
- Cook for about 10 minutes.
- Once the potatoes are semi-soft, throw in the sausage and again let it cook for about 5 minutes.
- Once it starts boiling again, add the corn.
- Now let it boil for a few minutes.
- Add the crab legs.
- For most crab legs you get, all you need to do is boil them for about 5-7 minutes and then they are ready.
- Let boil for a few minutes.
- Add all the shrimp to the pot while it is boiling and then let them pink up just a little and cut the flame off.
- Put the lid on; the shrimp will keep cooking.
- Let that cook for about 2-3 minutes more.
- Once you have everything cooked, lay down some newspaper and just dump the contents of the pot (after draining) onto the table and enjoy.
- You can add onions to this as well, but I dont ever add the onions.
- If you do, add them at the very beginning.
- You can also add crawdads.
