Steps:

  • Make sure that all the seafood, herbs, and etc are nice and clean.
  • Slice up 2 large lemons, and one large onion, then toss them into a large pan.
  • Toss in the Italian parsley, fresh thyme, dill, and cloves of garlic.
  • Now add in 1 stick of salted butter, 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of creole seasoning in the large pot.
  • Pour in 16 cups of cool water, and place the pot over high heat.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium high.
  • Let cook for 45 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium.
  • Now fish out all the herbs and etc ( or as much as you can).
  • Add in the andouille sausage, and corn. Let cook for 15 minutes.
  • Next add in the potatoes, and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Start adding in the crab legs & claws, and the lobster tails. Cook for 15 minutes.
  • Now toss in the shrimp, and turn the heat off!
  • Let sit for 10 minutes.
  • While the seafood boil is sitting, we can make our creole spiced garlic sauce.
  • Combine the butter, minced garlic, hot sauce, lemon juice, creole seasoning, paprika, and parsley flakes into a sauce pan, and place it over medium heat.
  • Once the butter is melted, stir the ingredients, and reduce the heat to low.
  • Let cook for 10 minutes.
  • You can pour the sauce over the seafood boil, or use to dip!
  • Enjoy!
