Shrimp Boil for Father's Day

[deestafford]

CDN,  A low country boil is one of the best and simpliest meals to server for  a group of people.  Just cook it, drain, and pour out on a table covered with newspaper. Have some bowls for shrimp peels to go in and some cocktail sauce and you are good to go. 
If anyone wants some more details on how to do a low country boil just ask.  There are numerous variations.  Dee

Yah , that's something I could definitely do. Something about cooking heads and all kind of turns me off. I know its what you all do over yonder but I like to cook my seafood without the head

Key,  I understand cooking shrimp with the heads on adds flavor, but the only time I can find them like that is from a coastal seafood market.  It' sort of a Catch 22 (or is it 23? I ain't as good with numbers as I once was) situation because heads add almost 50% to the weight when you buy them.  Dee

As long as the cabbage did taste good, it's alright. All the other food looks great, especially the shrimps.
