Cajun Shrimp and Crab Seafood Boil On The LoCo 60qt Cooker

Taking a step back from the pit and firing up the burner. On Today’s episode we’re going to do a deliciously simple seafood boil!

Step 1. Seasoning The Water: First thing you want to do is bring the pot to a boil. Then dial in the flavor you’d like in the seafood and that starts with seasoning the water. I’m using 2 whole oranges, 3 lemons, 2 onions, a boil bag, 2 concentrated liquids, 10 bay leaves, 4oz of minced garlic, 8oz of butter, 2 cups of salt and one pound of boil seasoning. I think that's it. Once it’s all mixed in give it about 15 minutes to work itself into the water, this is important.

Step 2. Add To it: After 15 minutes all of your seasoning should be dissolved into the water, leaving nothing but flavor. Now you can start adding what you’d like to the pot. This part is all about timing, if you’re using different ingredients you’ll want to work that out beforehand. I start with potatoes, I give them a 10 minute head start. Then I'll toss in my sausage and crab legs, and I shoot for 5 minutes per pound of crab legs. After the crab legs have had time to cook I'll toss in some veggies. Today I'm using green beans, I'll give them 5 minutes and then I add the shrimp.

Step 3. Stop!!!: After I add my shrimp I'll let it boil for 2 more minutes, then I cut the fuel and drop the temp of the water below 150 to stop the cooking process. I’m using ice to do that but they make specific products for this as well. It’s a very important step. Once the pot has stopped cooking you want to allow the seafood to soak in all that flavor. I go about 25 minutes but you can adjust that time based on the flavor you’d like. The longer the soak the spicier the boil.

Step 4. Finished: Once you allow it to soak your desired amount of time you’re ready to eat. Go ahead and plate it up or poor it out on the table, grab a bib and some tools, this gets messy!

Hope everyone enjoyed today’s video, I know it isn’t BBQ but it's a very fun and rewarding way to cook. I’ll get back to the BBQ next Wednesday!

Thanks for watching, see you all next week!
