Wow. And just like that, it’s officially summer. I can’t believe how fast this year is flying by! To honor the first day of summer, let’s talk about my two favorite warm-weather traditions: Low Country Boil and southern sweet iced tea.
Low Country Boil Made Easy
Traditional Low Country Boil is famous in the South. The dish originated in South Carolina where, apparently, people cook their entire dinner in a giant pot, turn it out onto newspaper, and create an all-you-can-eat buffet. Roll up your sleeves and dig in, people.
Traditionally, Low Country Boil contains shrimp, sausage, potatoes, corn and onions that are seasoned with Old Bay and crab boil. Everything is cooked outdoors in a giant aluminum stockpot over propane gas. Let me go on the record and say that I do agree that this dish is absolutely delish prepared in the traditional manner. However, it is a BIG PRODUCTION and I only make it this way when feeding a crowd.
For that reason, I created this alternative method using a sheet pan and it’s pretty darn tasty if I do say so myself (Austin agrees with me). The recipe is perfect for 4-5 people and can be prepared rain or shine! This is CLUTCH because it has been raining in Florida every day for a month.
The trick to this recipe is to parboil the potatoes and corn before tossing all the ingredients in an Old Bay seasoned garlic butter and roasting it all in the oven. That way, your veggies will be completely cooked through and you won’t over-do it on the shrimp. Shrimp cooks extremely fast in the oven so you have to be careful or you’ll end up with rubber prawns.
#NationalIcedTeaMonth
Nothing pairs better with a Low Country Boil then a giant, iced cold mug of sweet tea. Just like this recipe, Southern Breeze Sweet Tea is an easy alternative to a classic favorite. Rather than brewing a pitcher of hot tea and waiting for it to cool, pour 8 ounces of water over one Southern Breeze Cold Brew tea bag, let steep for 5 minutes, toss out the tea bag and pour over ice! And did I mention it’s calorie free and guilt free so it can be enjoyed glass after glass? Read more about How to Make Sweet Tea here.
