Shrimp Boil

This easy recipe comes together in one big stockpot filled with creamy potatoes, sweet corn, zesty sausage, and jumbo shrimp perfectly seasoned with Old Bay!

Ingredients :
  • 12 ounces beer
  • 1 large onion peeled and quartered
  • 1 lemon halved
  • 4 cloves garlic whole
  • ½ cup Old Bay seasoning
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes
  • 4 corn on the cob cut into thirds
  • 1 pound smoked sausage cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 pounds large shrimp in shells
  • baguette
  • 1 stick salted butter melted, more as desired
  • Old Bay seasoning
  • chopped fresh parsley
  • lemon wedges
  • hot sauce
Directions :
  1. In a large stockpot, add 4 quarts water, beer, onion, lemon, garlic, ½ cup Old Bay seasoning, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
  2. Add the potatoes and boil for 10 minutes.
  3. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add corn and sausage. Cook for 8 minutes.
  4. Add the shrimp and boil gently for 2 to 3 minutes or just until the shrimp is cooked through (this can vary based on the size of your shrimp).
