Thank you sir!! Used your recipe for Christmas shrimp & crab boil, and the family LOVED it. Thanks again

[@TROYCOOKS]

That was an amazing looking product. I'm gonna have to get my hands on that for my boils!!!! Y'all be safe brother!!! Keeping y'all in my prayers!!!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Troy! A lot of people struggle making shrimp turn out right, and this device sure makes that happen and it also eliminates the use of ice in the pot to cool the seafood down. We made it through the storm fine. Nate was a very weak unorganized system and I'm very thankful for that. Cheers brother!

Just made this in smaller scale and I gotta say it just made my favorite list! I used 2.5 gallons water with 2 lemons 2 mandarin oranges, 1/2 to 3/4 cup purée onion maybe 10 garlic cloves. 2 bags zatterans crab boil and 1 small bottle zatterans liquid seasoning all the other ingredients scaled back. Wow thanks for the recipe. I cooled with a bunch of ice at the end then let it all soak about 10 minutes

[@MadisonFalco]

JUSTIN SOULIGNY how many pounds of shrimp did you use?

[@RocketJ209]

Madison Falco sorry I just saw this. I used 2 medium bags of raw peeled deveined shrimp. Not sure on the lbs. next time I’ll probably use more

[@RocketJ209]

Madison Falco also it was pretty spicy but I like spicy

I love the low country boil! I never liked potatoes till I ate this at an Asian restaurant! It was amazing! Lemon juice may make

Did you try it? Didn't it turn out real good? I made it myself and it was to die for. I wasn't shy with spices, and a decent amount of salt is important. So Good!

[@jonhackner1528]

Great recipe rus and i am so excited to do boiled shrimp this year for the first time ever

[@JayZoop]

Everybody doesn't need me to tell them that you know what you are doing. But I followed this recipe exactly the same way, except for I used a different brand of spices, added Onions, and cooked in a big pot on the stove. I have to say, It is one of the best things I've ever eaten. Seriously!! I wrote down the outline of steps while I watchedthe video, so it's easier to remember.

[@cassieneal6427]

I'm definitely buying the boss. Great job looking good and delicious.

Thanks Charlie, and man there isn't much I love better than good boiled shrimp! This product seriously blew me away! I could not believe it removed that much heat from the water that fast! I honestly didn't think it could do it! No more ice in my boils! Thanks for watching Charlie!

Staggering amount of seasoning! I will try similar on my next boil! Thanks for another great video and keep them coming!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

It was perfectly seasoned. Keep in mind the amount of water I used. 20 gallons. If you do a smaller boil, you will have to scale it down. That big 3 lb tub of Zatarains Pro Boil is meant for 6 gallons of water (on their label) so now you can see why so much, and believe me, it was just right. Thanks for watching, and let me know how your next boil goes

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks so much John, I really appreciate the words my friend!

[@davegibson3763]

Like the addition of lemon zest at the end!Gonna do that next time!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

It really adds more citrus flavor. Lemon juice tends to evaporate so the oils from the zest really helps in maintaining that lemony flavor into the boil.

[@kanofwhoopazz7852]

Hell yeah brother! That’s how we like it over here in south MS! Gotta have that seasoning I doubt. Love that spice.

[@cybrpypr]

A great video again Russ. Thanks for the great video. I am a seafood/Meat clerk at Kroger here in Frankfort,KY and will use this info to teach customers the best way to do shrimp boils. I have used your info so many times and our customers really appreciate your insight. I always tell them to watch my favorite BBQ man's videos. Keep up the great work.

LOL Christy! I love my huge pots! Hard finding room for them, but I always manage. This Boil Boss should have been in my life years ago! Glad Taylor and Robert seen a need and market for it. I will never use ice again when I have this. Yeah, the storm was pretty much a dud, and I'm very glad about that. I survived Camille in 1969 and Katrina in 2005 and smaller ones in between and this was the weakest one out of all of them.

We used to get a couple of guys to hose down the pot while one stirred. Imagine that. A few coonasses took that simple idea, called it the Boil Boss, and they struck gold! Oh well. Maybe I'll cash in next time. It does work better than icing for sure. Good job bud.
