Friday Shoot Out
This weeks theme:
Outdoor Food
Straight off the shrimp boats in Darien
Low Country Boil

Includes, Shrimp, Potatoes,
Sausage and Corn on the cob.

You start out by boiling the potatoes and when they are half way done you add the corn and the sausage. The way we cook it we empty the pot now and then add the shrimp to the same water. The shrimp take less that 5 minutes to cook.
We use to pour it all together on to a table covered with news paper.
That's how it really should be served. We got a little fancier this time.
Add in some butter and cocktail sauce and have at it. Click here for a version of the recipe.
If by chance you have any leftover shrimp,
peal and chop them and make shrimp salad.
I serve mine in a fresh home grown tomato.
Yum!
Not to leave out the cancer causing hot dogs.
The water park leaves you really hungry.
We were sitting under a red umbrella.
Didn't it cast an odd glow over us?
Can't leave out the Cheetos and sprite.
I took some pictures of our left over buns that we threw to the black birds but they didn't turn out. Also the picture of the out door cat food is on the other camera card. I could have added a lot more to this but time is short and I just needed to get this up before I'm off and running.

I love seeing photos of regional cooking - guess I should have included a lobster bake on the beach in my photos...but alas not this time :)
You REALLY have me drooling with all that boiled shrimp! The waterpark looks like a lot of fun.
I agree with the others love the country boil! I could go for a shrimp Po'boy right about now...
Now, thst is good stuff. And pictures.
I taught in Hilton Head for a number of years. Around there they made Frogmore stew. Much the same but it had fish and shellfish in it. And it was absolutely delicious. I can remember the taste just writing of it. Thanks for the reminder.
And shrimp and grits.
mmmm,mmmm good!!
Your shrimp salad looks mighty tasty!
I love shrimp! That cookout looks divine!
Wonderful!!! I am now starving!!! Love the shrimp pics!! I am totally with you..a hot dog and sprite at the water park just hits the spot!!
Great shots!! Sarah

Love ya,
Papa
I would love to have a low country boil....it is so yummy...it makes me home sick!
Ah yes...the low country boil...shrimp is great but I usually steal all the sausage.
The food all looks delicious!
The food looks absolutely delicious! The corn In our area will start being harvested in a week or so. I love the rosy glow the umbrella casts. Thanks for the recipe post! Continue on, enjoying your summer with friends and loved ones!
You done it up right, gal. How much for all you can eat shrimp and corn?
I hadn't heard of country boil until last week when a woman from Mississippi talked about how good it is! This post made me smile when I realized I was going to actually SEE what it looks like! Yum!
On the other hand, I DO know about hotdogs!
Ooh, Gigi. We love to have Low Country Boil when we go camping. Gotta love the one pot dinner! The only difference is that we squeeze lemon over it and use prawns caught on the Pacific.
I'd love to have it in the Low Country, though!
Wow, my tummy is grumbling. I love shrimp. Looks like such a fun time.
Have fun at your wedding shoot...ok rehersal shoot. You are one fantabulous shooter girl!
I have never heard of a low country boil before!
Didn't that umbrella cast an amazing glow?!
There is nothing better than a seafood boil! Yum! Great shoot-out! :-)
Yum...now we're talking! I LOVE shrimp.
Shrimp boils are often requested at our house. That looks nummy!
I don't think I've ever seen so much shrimp in my life! It sure looks wonderful though...
My has it been a long time since I have been to a shrimp boil and boy does it look good. We used to do the newspaper covered tables also.
The boil looks yummers! Dontcha just love food?
Wow, you got some great shots. My favorite photo is of the girls with the hot dogs. It's just so innocent and reminiscent of my childhood.
I personally do not eat anything that swims or lives in water, but If I did, I'd be eating the food that you took pictures of. They were fabulous.
UM, YUM!!!! It's not something I have ever experienced, but I may just be down in your area the next time you're having one of these. ;)
You're so lucky to get all those fresh shrimp. Over here they would cost a fortune and have been transported for miles. Even our home caught Scottish prawns go overseas and not to our shops. I'm so jealous.
Oh my gosh that looks so good. I haven't ever done one of those before. I need to beef up my activities for sure. We love shrimp and corn.
Great pictures and you have been really busy girl.
I have had your shrimp boil but with Crawfish - I broke out in hives but loved the food / taste combination. 'cancer' causing hot dogs, don't tell me - are the all supposed to be bad for you? I love hot dogs - but only oscar meyer all beef.
I am so wanting to chow down on some of those shrimp! Fabulous!
I really want some of that food! I love shrimp!
Oh, my. Feeling faint now. And a recipe, even? Wow.
