Did you buy or catch the crabs? We boil blue crabs a lot but we don't put in sausage until after the crabs are boiled and pulled. We also had onions and garlic. Your photo looks delicious!

We bought the crabs this time and steamed them separately in Old Bay, combine back when the shrimp go in. Makes a tasty dish for lots of hungry people, without much hassle.

Them is some big bugs you got there.

Cajun Lady, I grew up around Pocatello and you know how many of us natives here treat sea food. I just never really took to it or fishing. I am a desert dog. Now you leave them big ticks out of that dish and I would be right there up to my elbows and maybe beyond.

Randy, I really enjoyed living in Pocatello. The first time I got lost one night just exploring Pocatello and ended up on the Indian reservation during one of the ceremonial festivals I thought I had driven back in time. I got a little nervous seeing all the Indians in full headdress and outfits. Here is this Cajun from Louisiana trying to find a place to turn around among all these Teepees. We ended up going to the festival the next year. Very cool.

I been trying to get to the Pow Wow for years and never seem to make it. That happens right at harvest time and I am usually operating a grain combine. Or I just plain forget.

We fell in love with Low Country Boil when we were stationed in Savannah in the 90s. We still make one every now and then, but we have to use Dungeness crab out here.

Enjoy that boil!

Being a native Marylander I love steamed crabs....potatoes, sausage and corn are yummy too!

Randy next time I'm in Idaho I'll bring you few steamed crabs and show you how to pick the meat. They taste so good!
