Since he hates South Carolina, here's a recipe just from that place, just
for him. Bet he'll like this recipe!
Frogmore Stew
1 lb. smoked sausage
3 lbs. new potatoes, chopped
water and beer to cover
1 large sweet onion, chopped
1 large bell pepper, chopped
3 ribs celery, chopped
3 lbs. fresh shrimp, de-headed but unpeeled
6 fresh blue crabs
6 ears corn on the cob
a couple of lemons
shrimp & crab boil mix
Fill a large stew pot about 1/2 full with water and beer and bring to a
boil. Squeeze lemon juice into the pot. Add as much of the shrimp and crab
boil mix as you think is wise. Cut the potatoes and the corn cobs into
chunks and add to the pot. Cook about 10 minutes. Add sausage, cut into
chunks; add onions, celery and bell pepper. Cook about 10 minutes. Add the
crabs and cook about 5 minutes. Toss in the shrimp; cook about 3 minutes.
Drain the lot and eat, tossing the crab and shrimp shells and corn cobs into
a bucket in the middle of the table.
