Had one last night, Zatarins seafood boil, onion, garlic, lemon in a large pot of water. Let that simmer for about an hour. Cut up potatoes into hunks, cook them until almost done, andoui sausage cut in hunks next, then 1/2 ears of corn until they are done. Shrimp goes in last until they turn pink. Strain everything out and serve. You can then use Old Bay to season to taste. I don't but other do.

1 stick butter, Zatarin's boil, new potatoes, andouille sausage, corn, shrimp in that order. Cook till the shrimp just turn pink and cut off. We usually also roast oysters at the same time. A real winter favorite here on the coast.

Zatarain's Complete Crawfish, Shrimp, and Crab Boil. I like the powder better than the liquid. I use red skinned potatoes(cut in half), fresh corn on the cob(broke in half), Conecuh sausage, and split and deveined shrimp. I boil the potatoes for about 15 minutes before I put in the corn. Once the corn is in, let it boil for about 10 minutes. Then put in the sausage(cut into about 1.5" long) and let that boil for about 15 minutes. The shrimp goes in last. After it starts to boil, I let it boil for about 5 minutes. Then drain and eat.
Anyone load up on the seafood? clams,crawfish,maybe crab claws etc? So far you've givin me some good ideas,thanks
Of course you know this but you can add any and all of this. However, now you really are getting away from tradition and turning it into a seafood boil.
I've seen folks add everything from blue crabs to artichokes.
Let the stock steap for about an hour before adding anything. A few beers stirred in don't hurt either.
Lastly, do not get fancy with it. Once cooked dump the entire pot onto brown or newspaper. Several rolls of paper towels and plastic utensils are a must.
A great side = hush-puppies!! And if you really want to go whole hog plop down a couple of whole smoked butts on the paper with bowls of slathering sauce!!
but consist mostly if not entirely of exoskeletal critters not readily available around here. I enjoy mild flavored fish such as Cod or Haddock so I'm wonderin if a slow simmer with a few of the above ingredients will give me a nice dish or will I wind up with a plate of mush.
Just a WAG,but I would think even if the fish breaks down,you'd still have a nice dish,lots of carrots, celery,taters.corn on the cob,,,,, BYC as mentioned,far from a pro,that's why I'm scrounging for ideas

HA! Was not my point...did not say if you WANT to be a pro....rather SOUND like a pro and blend in 'round here...;)) I agree with you on the fish.
Denny maybe you add a few filet's last minute or in a basket above the broth. Never tried fish/fish in a boil!!
