We loved it, loved it, loved it!! I didn't have Old Bay Seasoning and used Crab Boil and mis read the directions on the bottle and oh man it was flaming hot!! But we still loved it. The next time I will know what not to do. Everything was great and I will be making this again!! Thanks for the recipe.

WOWWWW! This is fabulous. The only change I had to make was that I didn't have old bay so I used zatarain's creole seasoning and a little cayenne. The times on all the steps are perfect. Very easy very fast with little prep time...THANX!

Very Good! I served this over the weekend. The kids looked at me funny as i dumped it all out on a covered table. I left out the beer because hubby is a recovering alcoholic however i am sure it would have made this recipe even better. I also multiplied the recipe x4 to feed 8 very big boys that can put away some food and there was very little left. 5 Stars from my family...Thanks NurseDi

From now on, this is the only way I want to cook boiled shrimp. We thought it was fantastic. I doubled the recipe and had two big pots of shrimp and vegetables brewing on the stove. My family and friends feasted all day. Everything was spicy but not too hot. Thanks Nurse Di. We are already planning another shrimp boil for later in June. Yipeeeee!!!
