Shrimp and Crab Boil

 We try to do this for our New Years Eve dinner each year.

Shrimp and Crab Boil Recipe
2 pounds snow crab legs
1 pound uncooked shrimp
1 pound mild or hot Italian sausage
1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes
6 corn cob halves
1/4 cup Old Bay Seasoning


1.  Start off by bringing 6-8 quarts of water to a rolling boil.  Add the Old Bay seasoning and red potatoes and cook for 15 minutes.
2.  Next add sausage and sweet corn to the boiling water and cook for another 10 minutes until the red potatoes are tender.
3.  With a slotted spoon remove the corn, red potatoes and sausage from the boiling water and place on a large serving platter.
4.  Add shrimp and snow crab legs to the water:  bring to a boil and cook 3-5 minutes.  Remove from the water.
5.  Arrange the all the cooked foods onto the large platter and enjoy!

This recipe serves 3-4.
