Brad and Andrew head out for a day of shrimping and crabbing, casting their nets to catch ingredients for a low country boil - a brand new experience for Brad to add to his arsenal.

    Brad singlehandedly keeps the Bon Appetit UA-cam page alive. There are other entertaining personalities, but he carries the bunch. I hope he continues to be fun, humble, and inquisitive. That’s what we love to see.

    Man I went down to South Georgia for my first year of college and was introduced to low country boils, got my family to come down and try it, they’ve all been so in love with the dish we’ve been doing them for special occasions for almost a decade, best one in my opinion is crawfish, shrimp, andouille, shrimp, corn on the cob, red potatoes, and the freshest crab you can find. Blue, stone, king, etc, doesn’t matter which just make sure it’s high quality, and if it’s too expensive then just ditch it! Best part is you get to eat like a barbarian lol

    I just want to add one thing about the stone crab, he said they just break off the claw and it regenerates so they might catch the same stone crab 4 times in its live, but studies show over half of all stonecrabs die after losing their claw and being released back.
