Excellent recipe! We did this last night for a group of people on the deck. I also used the recipe on this website for Frogmore Stew, it's similar, but gives a better idea of how much Old Bay to use. I cut the corn and potatoes in half so the shrimp wouldn't seem so small!

Excellent! We took this down to 2 servings so we could try it before hosting a party. So easy and just plain fun. I can't wait to try the real thing for our friends here in Charleston, SC!

I grew up in Beaufort SC, home of this dish! We call it Frogmore Stew. Beer is a must and lots of lemon!

Absolutely delicious and almost too simple to make. What an impressive feast for all to enjoy! I made the recipe exactly as it was presented. I'll be making this one again for family get togethers.

This was great! Very easy, very flavorful, and very FUN! All my friends were in awe. I will definitely do this again and again. The only change I made was in place of the crab, I used clam and mussels.

Simply delicious. My hubby and I lived in the lowcountry of GA (in Savannah) and dined at a local restaurant by the ocean that served this. We ate it all the time until we moved back to NY, where you CANNOT find lowcountry boils!!! I was having a pregnancy craving for this dish and made it last night for dinner. It's been nearly a year without us having this dish and it is GREAT! This recipe was very similar to the taste of the boils we ordered at The Crab Shack (not the chain) on Tybee Island, GA! Wonderful blend of tastes and I WILL use this recipe again!

Warning -- you will eat so much of this you will feel sick!!! Our family version of this recipe includes adding the juice of two lemons, cayenne pepper, cloves, and bay leaves to the water. Oh so good.
