LOW COUNTRY BOIL



Low Country Boil image

This dish is indigenous to Savannah and our lifestyle. Calling up a dozen friends for a cookout is a great casual way to entertain, especially if the food is cooked outside over an open flame (you can also use a portable gas fish cooker). Once the Low Country Boil has been cooked and drained, I like to pour it out on a table covered with newspaper.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

Crab boil (2 teaspoons per quart of water)
12 small red new potatoes
Six 4-inch pieces good smoked link sausage
6 ears fresh corn
3 pounds fresh shrimp (26 to 30 count per pound), unpeeled

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with enough water to cover all ingredients. Add crab boil and heat until boiling. Adjust crab boil to suit your taste. When boiling, add potatoes and sausage. Cook on medium heat for 20 minutes. Add corn and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Add shrimp and cook for no more than 3 minutes (do not overcook!). Drain and serve with piping-hot bread and ice-cold beer.

LOWCOUNTRY BOIL



Lowcountry Boil image

When I host cooking school weekends at my place, I often do a Lowcountry Boil on Friday nights for my usual "meet and greet" session, where the folks attending can get to know one another-and me-a little bit. This is a specialty of the Lowcountry areas like Charleston and Savannah, where the people live near the water and have access to plenty of fresh shrimp. But of course you don't need to live near the water to enjoy it. The traditional way to serve this is to basically dump it-spread it, if you will-across a large picnic table that has been covered with newspaper. You may want to fancy up the serving situation, but it's fine to keep it casual, too. You can just tell your guests that's how they do it down South.

Yield serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

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

Steps:

  • 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. Serve tartar and cocktail sauces, lemon wedges, and a small bowl of salt alongside.
