J. Delawcious Seafood Boil

Seafood Boil Time!

J. Delawcious Seafood Boil is a nice way to cut cost on a seafood dinner for the family. My J. Delawcious Seafood Boil can comfortably feed 5 people. Joe’s Crab Shack charges about 60 dollars total for two people to eat a steam pot. So why pay more?  I am going to show you how to get the same experience and save a little money. Let me break down what I spent for this meal. I spent 6.99 for one bag of shrimp. $6 for lobster, $20 for snow crab, 5 for the sausages and I already had potatoes/corn. $37.99 to feed four people. Which was a total of $9.50 a person.

Joe’s Steam Pot recipe called the Arctic Bay for one person has snow crab, shrimp, a whole Maine lobster and smoked sausage cooked in garlic butter and topped with Old Bay Seasoning cost $31.49! Why pay more?

So let’s get started on this J. Delawcious Boil.

  • 2 Lobsters
  • 3 Chopped Hot Chicken Sausage
  • 4 Halved Snow Crab Legs

  • 2 Chopped Medium Onions
