The Ever WONDERFUL Seafood Boil!

I don't think there is anything we love more than a seafood boil now.  Start out with your 16 qt. stockpot half filled with water and a bag of Zatarain's Crawfish Shrimp and Crab Boil Bag. Bring it to a boil. Add corn on the cob, boil again, add potatoes (I just add two quarts of my canned potatoes), bring to a boil once more and add any seafood you would like and cook until done. Today we had crab legs, clams, shrimp, scallops and perch fillets. I would have loved to have mussels but they were out of those some crawfish would have been nice too but I haven't seen any in the stores here for a while.
Anyway, no matter what you put in it for seafood, it will be wonderful. We dip ours in butter (I like garlic powder in my butter).

  2. It really is. All of the seafood only takes about 5 minutes to cook. Corn only takes 9 minutes. Most of the time is just waiting for the water to boil.

  3. This looks great -- as long as you like seafood, which I don't. I don't eat any fish or seafood, which is a shame, because it restricts my menu choices a lot!
