Description

My own adaptation of frogmore stew. An easy southern comfort dish...just throw it all in the pot! Serve in large bowls as a stew. Peel shrimp and crab as you eat.

Ingredients
  • 6 quarts water, and more as needed
  • ¼ cup seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®), or to taste
  • 1 pound small red potatoes
  • 2 pounds king crab legs
  • 2 cups chopped carrots
  • 1 ½ cups chopped celery
  • 12 pearl onions
  • 1 pound spicy sausage links, cut into rounds
  • 4 ears corn, husked
  • 2 pounds unpeeled shrimp
Directions
  1. 1. Bring 6 quarts water to a boil in a large stewing pot; add seafood seasoning. Cook potatoes in the seasoned water for 15 minutes.
  2. 2. Bring a separate pot of water to a boil; add seafood seasoning to taste. Cook crab legs until meat is tender, about 10 minutes.
  3. 3. Mix carrots, celery, and onions into potatoes; cook until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add sausage and corn and continue boiling for 5 minutes more. Add shrimp and transfer crab legs to same pot; cook until shrimp are cooked through and pink, 2 to 3 minutes.
