This seafood boil recipe is very nutritious, tasty and quick & easy to prepare. I turn to this recipe when I really want to treat the family to a fun and entertaining outdoor meal, as you can see in the picture above. If your a seafood lover, you're going to love this Crab and Shrimp boil.
This particular seafood recipe has long been a family favorite. I've seen this recipe prepared several ways: with crabs only, with shrimp and sausage only, or with crab, shrimp and sausage.
This seafood recipe includes all of my favorites: snow crab legs, shrimp, smoked sausage, sweet corn and red potatoes. The availability of frozen food products makes this a viable meal year round. So don't let the non-availability of fresh crab, shrimp and corn discourage you from making this terrific meal any day of the week.
