    @MrMakeItHappen…thank you for blessing our heart and all of our seafood boil parts with this recipe. I was in such a rush that I forgot the potatoes and corn to put in the bag, I also add a good helping of Kimmy’s “Yes that much” seasoning to it also and OMG! My neighbors smelled the base cooking and was at the door, haha. This is a great recipe. Thank God for your skillset.

    I wasn’t sure where this video was going since I’ve made tons of seafood boil and was about to write this video off. But dang this guy broke out my secret recipe spice…the caldo de pollo bullion….hahaha. Once I saw that and what he did I was like ok this guy is legit. My man! He knows what’s up that sauce is what most folks are missing when they want to make what the restaurants make. Anyone can add stuff to hot water what separates home cooked boils from restaurants is that sauce he is making. My man nailed it! Also, I’ve made hundreds of boils in my life time. As he has stated the key is always prepping and preheating the corn and potatoes and other items. Good boils are all about timing. Regardless of what anyone says a one pot boil ain’t goin to cut it. If not you WILL have MUSH! I subscribed as soon as he said “no one likes mushy crab or lobster” amen!

      Im dying to make a seafood boil one of these days, but I was wondering about frozen vs live seafood.. I can get a lot of stuff fresh and live, which in most cases is better tastewise.. so i was wondering, does it make a difference in a boil as well? If so, then how do you prep stuff? Ive seen videos where like a ton of crawfish were tossed in alive.. what about cleaning and deveining?

    This recipe looks amazing prepping to try it tomorrow.. sharing a hack.. spread some butter on the crab leg knuckles before you put them in the bag. This allows the butter to melt thru the claw and makes them easier to get the all of the crab meat when you break them open. Your tips are amazing thanks for sharing...

    • @SDeezy593
      @SDeezy593 2 місяці тому

      True, I enjoy specifics with times as well, but most of what you're using is already partially cooked or already cooked (like my crab legs) before it even goes in the bag. The exception is the shrimp but that's literally during like the last 10 minutes of cooking. Worst-case use a thermometer to prevent overcooking.

    • @SDeezy593
