I love the sound of this! I can honestly say that I have never heard of Low Country Boil before. It seems to cook a bit faster than I imagined though. I envisaged it being cooked low and slow for a long time. And you serve it with sauce, sauce and sauce. Juli.. you nailed that one!
ReplyDeleteIt truly is delicious! Low Country Boil's are a popular dish down in the South, especially in Savannah, Charleston, and New Orleans. I used Shrimp, but a lot of people use Crawfish instead. But the real glory of this meal is how simple & fast it is to make. I also love to do LCB's for a large party, and just dump out all the food onto a table lined with newspaper, and just let everyone go at it! That's just how we do it in the South :) It's so easy, but still so good, you should definitely give it a try sometime soon. Thanks for the kind comments!!
