BOILED SHRIMP 2 Gallons of water 3/4 Cup Seafood Boil Seasoning 1/4 Cup salt 2 tablespoons liquid crab boil 3 Lemons 2 Oranges 2 lbs of Smoked Sausage 3 lbs of Small Red Potatoes 1 lb of Whole Button Mushrooms 1/4 Cup of Spicy Cajun or Creole Seasoning 4-5 lbs of Unpeeled Raw Shrimp 8-12 Ears of Frozen Corn Start out by heating a large stock pot filled with 2 gallons of water on a high heat. Squeeze in the lemons and oranges, dropping them into the pot of water. Prep the onion and garlic by cutting them in half. Poke holes in the potatoes an cut the sausage into desired sizes. Add the seafood boil seasoning, salt, and liquid crab boil. Mix well. As it starts to come to a boil, remove the lemons and oranges. Add the potatoes, onion, garlic, mushroom, and sausage to the pot. If you have a mesh boiling bag, you can use this, but it helps if you have a pot with a built-in strainer. Boil on a high heat for 20-25 minutes. Monitor the heat so that it doesn’t boil over. After the allotted time is up, remove all the fixings from the pot onto a tray off on the side. Next add the spicy blend of Cajun seasoning. Bring the pot back to a rolling boil. Slowly add the shrimp to the pot. Let the pot come back to a slight boil. May take about 5 minutes. Once you see a slight boil and the shrimp have floated to the top; add the frozen corn to the pot, stir, cover, and turn the heat off. Let sit for another 10 minutes, periodically stirring. Dump the shrimp out into a strainer, and serve!
FYI....You don’t have the onion and garlic listed in your ingredients in this typed recipe even though the instructions and the video has the onion and garlic in it. Also...did you mean BOILING bag instead of BOWLING bag? 😂
My man! I needed this. I’m headed home next week from Cali to get my annual supply of shrimp, lol. Nobody in Cali eats like we do. My neighbors are always tryna see what I’m cooking.
Absolutely wonderful. I'm going to try this maybe the weekend. Thank you for being so professional while having fun. I say that for the folks who say you don't put this in that or do this like that. You are aware to let people know you can add or delete what you want in the recipe. I love your recipes and that you share your love of food especially from Louisiana. Keep up the good work!
Any idea where I can get a boil bag like that? I have a 12 qt stock pot but I have been unable to find a boil bag or a strainer insert that fits my pot.
Love it wish I can have some now but be safe in your area since this hurricane is approaching Louisiana please you and your family be safe over there 🙏🏽 👊
Big fan of boiled shrimp with the fixings and I’m new to it so just wanted to ask a question. Where’s the mush? Like all the vegetables grounded up to create a sauce that it sits in? I’ve been to Let’s Sea and Star Crab In Los Angeles so those are my only references.
We don’t put sauce on our seafood boils in Louisiana , that shrimp and crab seasoning we boil our seafood in and the fruits and onions give our seafood a nice spicy flavor you can see the seasoning on the potatoes and on the shrimp . So no sauce is needed 😊
I have a thing about deveining my shrimp. I hate seeing that black line. Would the shells fall off if I split the back to devein the shrimp before I boil them?
You can actually devein them without splitting the back - take a toothpick and poke it into the shrimp between 2 of the shell's joints near the tail, right below the vein, and lift it out through the back, it'll take the vein with it and you can just slide it right out in one!
Marcus Safari hmmm I’m not sure what could really substitute it. You may have to add a mix of black pepper, thyme, and cayenne. Then add more salt or Cajun seasoning
I’ve used your video a couple of times now and this recipe I delicious. However, If I was to do 2 rounds of shrimp (10lbs), would I add more seasoning after the first round comes out? Or is the water seasoned enough to do the second round of shrimp? I’m not sure if I could fit all 10lbs in my pot at one time.
Why do you not take the outer skin off the onion and garlic? No body seems to, but if it was skinned I would eat them too? Thanks. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them. Sincerely, Rod
I'm 54, I learned a few years ago that "over boiled" shrimp are the worst, such a waste. If you see shriveled shrimp/skins, look like they've been baked for hours, like the shrimp been baking under a heat lamp, AVOID AT ALL COST. TOUGH!!! Shrimp only need a few minutes to cook. The longer you boil, the tougher they get, HELLO!!! I use a simple recipe for 2lbs of shrimp: fill a 4-5qt pot with enough water to cover shrimp, add Zatarain seasoning, spices(garlic/onion powder, Tony's), 2-3 bay leaves, lemon, add 1 capful Zatarain crab boil. Boil seasoning 10-15 minutes while dissolving. IMPORTANT: make sure all seasonings are dissolved. Add 1lb shrimp at a time! Make sure u have a bowl filled with ice water ready. When shrimp turn pink, 3-4 minutes LITERALLY, take shrimp out, dunk in ice water to STOP the cooking process, drain water, then place in a large bowl filled with 1 stick WARM/NOT HOT butter, chopped garlic, Tony's seasonings, and dried/fresh parsley. Utter heaven!!! This is to be eaten immediately, otherwise the butter will harden. If you want cold shrimp, drain shrimp, fridge, and make a seasoned dip using butter, garlic, parsley, and Tony's to dip. So super easy! Cajun Ninja your recipe has my mouth salivating. Love ur recipes!!! Please dont take offense to my advice. I have the deepest respect for ur cooking.
Many ways to add flavor and/or heat: cayenne powder or hot sauce or sliced jalapeño or bay leaves or Zatarain’s flow thru boil spice bag. I add them all. Lol
Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! You poured that goodness down the drain?????? One word: RICE! I'm embarrassed for your family and neighbors. Lord, i hope you were drinking, cuz you sure weren't thinking.
Earl Powell rice??? I don’t think you understand how highly seasoned that water is. It’s great for letting certain food soak up, but not to just ladle over rice, lol. Your sodium intake would be dangerously high. 🙃

I try to let them know, but they still gotta argue. 🤷🏻♂️😅
I only want to do a couple pounds of shrimp do I decrease the water and seaming to half what the recipe calls for ?
Any idea where I can get a boil bag like that? I have a 12 qt stock pot but I have been unable to find a boil bag or a strainer insert that fits my pot.
That man is a whole snack 🤤
Love it wish I can have some now but be safe in your area since this hurricane is approaching Louisiana please you and your family be safe over there 🙏🏽 👊
Did u have to de vain those shrip or did they come like that?
No, when boiling shrimp theres no deveining process. Being they’re boiled whole with the shell on.
Trying this weekend. Can’t wait.
I'm new to your channel gonna be my first time doing a shrimp boil and was looking fa a simple way to do it thanks fa the recipe and step by step.
How many pounds of shrimp
Man oh man! I know them boys was seasoned to perfection 🤤😝
What size and brand pot do you like to use ?
Very curious to know if you don't have fresh oranges and lemons could you just use orange juice and lemon juice
You should consider doing a shrimp boulette recipe

Looks good man, so many ways to kill a good boil. I'm about halfway through one right now! Starting to drool on the floor.
Thank you for the video😊 I bought all ingredients and I'm cooking this for my family tonight 7/24/20. Super Excited. Thank you

BlueHina okay I will try it. Thanx!!
Great tip, I too have to have my shrimp deveined.
LOL
How did you make the dip.
Do you have a cook book cuz I need to order 1
jamal davis I gotta get me one too
You cant beat a good mushroom baby. They are the bomb.
Brian Morales no doubt - best part of the boil
How did I find this?
My mom just refuses to eat shrimp with the heads on. Can I get without and cook the same?
Yes , you can boil shrimp without the heads, I have done it many times.
Thank you for sharing your tasty shrimp boil recipe with us. Going to share this video w my big baby sister who studying to be chef.
Louisa Lewis whoo hop! I hope she enjoys it
No deveining of the shrimp?
Does it boil away? Is fine to eat without deveining it first?
Nice job looks so good mouth watering 👍👊
How many will this recipe feed?
I absolutely love ur cooking videos
If i dont have the right integrated crab boil, could i use Cheyenne pepper? If so how much?
Marcus Safari hmmm I’m not sure what could really substitute it. You may have to add a mix of black pepper, thyme, and cayenne. Then add more salt or Cajun seasoning
making me homesick
Totally delicious!
I’ve used your video a couple of times now and this recipe I delicious. However, If I was to do 2 rounds of shrimp (10lbs), would I add more seasoning after the first round comes out? Or is the water seasoned enough to do the second round of shrimp? I’m not sure if I could fit all 10lbs in my pot at one time.
Typically the water becomes more concentrated, so you can get away with doing a second round. Maybe add a splash of liquid crab boil. 👊🏻
@@TheCajunNinja right on, thanks for the speedy response! 👊🏻
Actually love this channel.
How many would you say 5 lbs will feed?
5-6 people if you have enough fixings.
Why do you not take the outer skin off the onion and garlic? No body seems to, but if it was skinned I would eat them too?
Thanks.
Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
Sincerely,
Rod
Helps keep the entire half intact. So that way you can just peel from there after cooking. 😊👊🏻
What brands for the spices and liquid boil do you use?
Louisiana brand boiling spice. Zatarain’s liquid seafood boil concentrate
Great videos! Keep 'em coming Podnah
On point my man. Thank you!!! ⚜️ 🍤🔥

That water to the top of the pot had my OCD going crazy.
If y’all like spice I’d recommend upping it to a whole lb of powder and 4oz of liquid. This here just too weak for my taste
Many ways to add flavor and/or heat: cayenne powder or hot sauce or sliced jalapeño or bay leaves or Zatarain’s flow thru boil spice bag. I add them all. Lol
