RETURN TO BOIL AFTER EACH INSERTION
1. BOIL WATER W/ SEASONING
Old Bay Crab & Shrimp seasoning in bags
2. ADD 2-3 STICKS OF BUTTER
3. 1/2 BOX OF SALT
4. POTATOES
10-15 # of red potatoes
5. TWO BOTTLES OF BEER
Bud of course [Phil's note: NOT in MY HOUSE]
6. SAUSAGE Polish and/or smoked
About 1/2 pound per person
7. ONIONS
5-10 # of Vidalias are best
8. CARROTS
The pre-cut and cleaned are best
9. CORN
Frozen nibblets work well. If the guests are big corn eaters, 3-4 ears per person would be a good guess.
10. SHRIMP
Depending on the crowd you need at least 1/2 pound per person. I have used as much as 1 pound per person and had very little left over. I find that the
med-large shrimp have the best flavor. The bigger they get the tougher and less tasty they are.
