Can't ever replace a great Dad. Nothing beats good memories. Great watching but not without the narration. Thanks for taking us on a trip through your past.
Enjoyed this little video and your memories of dad. Memories are all we have. My died in 93, I was 15. Still miss him. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Thank you so much.
Good eats! Great story about your father. He probably did a lot of "Southern" stuff that you "took for granted".... didn't realize that there is nowhere else on this planet like that place. Cool stuff Adam.
My Dad passed in 04. Glad to see you can remember the good times you had together. Hey, I hear Ribs are better in the south. Can you show this Ohio boy your Rib secrets. Great video, keep them coming.
Adam, my daughter watching with me sees your logo and says "smile" when she sees you logo. I never saw it but I agree; makes dad smile too. Great eats bro.
Good to hear the story at the end man, it’s deffinitly relatable, a lot of us were brought up on fishing and doing large family cook outs with steak, burgers, fish and seafood boils
Hi Bro, I'm multicraftman, a subscriber but usually a very silent watcher but, being from Mississippi you just touched something very close to my heart, food. The multicraftman is an old, pot bellied lover of good food, cooking good food and eating good food. You just touched on all three. Yea I'm learning to do machining, running a lathe and a mill. I'm old and live on Social Security, so I have very little money to spend but life is too short to leave out good food. Please find time to do another food video sometime, love, and best wishes, Donald
That's an awesome comment Donald! Thank you. I'm quite surprised at the positive feedback I'm getting from this vid. I'll be sure to make another one later on. I've been told I live to eat, not eat to live. 😆
Enjoyed the relaxing time with you cooking, the best most refreshing part was your comment about the corn! I watch lots of cooking programs and I have NEVER heard a cook say anything but "that's great, yum!!, your honest comment regarding the corn was REAL!
Me and Scott had shrimp and oysters from Joe Patti's last weekend and i was telling him how cooking seafood always reminds me of our childhood and Dad. I remember that last big seafood fry we all had down at the machine shop. Baking pies and cupcakes and making candies makes me think about him too since he loved being in his kitchen and baking with me and Kheilee. I've been missing him a lot lately. These are wonderful memories that we'll always have with him. Love you.
Too awesome Adam! Those shrimp are huge. We used to have neighbors from South Carolina who would have shrimp boils (we live in the midwest). They would cover a picnic table with newspaper and dump the goodness out. Everyone would gather round and eat.
Hey Adam, Looks damn good! As a kid, my folks, grandparents and my aunt, uncle and 3 cousins lived within a mile of each other. During the summer, my grandpa and uncle would fire up a large bbq that they built out of bricks (the grill was about 3 x 4 feet), we'd make home-made ice cream in the old-style hand cranked ice cream freezer. My mom would usually make potato salad and my aunt would bring something. I have fond memories of those times with my family and great food. You can't beat home made stuff! Thanks for the yummy video! I love shrimp, but on the west coast, they cost a fortune! There a fishing town (Half Moon Bay) about 20 miles west of us where you can buy stuff right off the boat. You can get some pretty good deals but not as cheap as you. There's also several seafood restaurants in HMB that are pretty reasonable and have great food! Thanks again and enjoy your shrimp boil! Have a good one! Dave
great boil, love the Conecuh Sausage, made not far from here...........nice work and I bet your ole man is smiling right now.............and proud too.
Nice video. I agree with nothing like living on the coast. Love fresh Gulf shrimp. No farm raised or imported shrimp for me. Thanks for sharing your Low Country Boil with us.
Adam, You made me hungry. I might be down that way in a couple if weeks , and I may stop by to try some of your favorite foods. I like how simple that boil was to make. Later and bon appetit. Regards, John
You're the best, Abom! I never knew about a 'seafood boil', until now. (I knew that the Harbor Freight welding gloves are only good for grilling...) Thanks, Abom!
Dad's are the best. Mine taught me how to cook as well. Everything was an experiment. Recipes from a book?!?! are you kidding? *tossed into the fire* as far as her was concerned. But now that you have got me hungry at 10:53 pm after a full day at the race track (we finished 12th out of a 25 car invitational event), I feel like putting crazy glue over your K & T mill handles!!!
Dude I live in southern Louisiana... I used to boil seafood /corn /potatoes/shrimp professionally at a seafood drive thru.... Your cooking times are dead on.... Only one I've ever seen cook the individual items the proper time.... Kudos
Dangit Adam, I'm sitting here mouth watering now! Thanks for the instruction and stories, I enjoyed it. Now I'm off to sate this hankering for some Cajun food. Good stuff buddy, keep'em coming.
Adam I'm an amateur in the machine shop but was a professional chef for many years and I gotta say, looks damn good! I'm jealous of that gulf shrimp. Thanks for the videos!
Abom79 I love making everything. Making food was great, but not a career I liked long term, and my goals changed. I still love to cook, but now I'm focused more on making things that don't get eaten :) Thanks for helping with that in being a great teacher!
Yeah, I learned allot of cooking from my Dad too, he is always in the kitchen...and my Mom was an excellent baker, so I can even make bread or pizza dough when I get ambitious, LOL! One of the things I miss most about Hawaii is the access to fresh fish, and prawns up in the mountain creeks too! Talk about impressing your friends and family, show up with a cooler full of live lobsters you just caught and it will be a special occasion ;) You made me hungry an now I've gotta eat! Aloha Brah...Chuck
Wow! Looks great. Really sorry that I can't enjoy even the smell. Looks like that swamp spice would have a great flavor. Must be good 'cause I didn't see you add any of the mild Louisiana red sauce, like Tabasco. I grew up on the west coast with a lot of summer fish BBQ. I miss those days. Thanks for the video. Larry
Hello sir. I love watching all your videos! I used to work in machine shops when I was younger. Mostly CNC Lathes but some manual stuff. You do some awesome work! Anyway, just stumbled across this video. Good chow there! Used to be stationed over in Ft Walton at Eglin and I miss all the fresh seafood you can get around there. Been to Joe's many times. Keep up the videos. They are great!
You making my mouth water A ,and I love the security poster, it wouldn't make anyone think twice! Smell those shrimp they're beginning to boil. Tuesday; looked so good i just made a batch myself, same thing, the corn wasn't up to snuff, but everyone loved it, too bad we have to pay inland prices for frozen stuff. Cheers and thanks for reminiscing.
I don't know what it is for me but certain sounds & smells bring me to exact moments in my youth, that you cannot describe. for me especially it's listening to someone kicking over a 50 CC Dirt bike, my uncles did that for me when I was 6 for the first time,....great memories
Both my twin & I have the same burns, learned very quickly to lay that bike to the left, not right. Later in my early 30's I dislocated both shoulders on a Y 50... Don't ask it was 2:00 AM, & alcohol was not involved 😎
Looks good, Adam! We don't get shrimp like that up here in Jersey. You Southern guys keep all the real big ones to yourselves! I know we can beat that frozen corn though. There's a lot of fresh corn in this area. Thanks for sharing dinner with us! -mike
We actually have lots of fresh corn right here locally. That particular frozen corn I got from the corner store sucked! We have a farmers market that sells lots of the areas best produce.
Boy I know that was good. I had a low country boil many years ago in south Ga. while spending a week watching trains. Our host put it on and it was some kind of good.
+abom79 $5.50 a pound, out on the west coast those would be at least $25.00 a pound! Nice boil. You every try boiling in clear water, just a little salt, dump the contents in a cooler, cover with the boiling spices, then cover with ice. Let soak for 15 min then eat. The benefit being you can keep the water hot when doing multiple batches back to back.
+James Kilroy Since the wife is Chinese, we don't pay that $25/lb at the Western markets... that said, even the Asian markets want ~$10/lb for good, fresh jumbo prawns... freighting those in from the Gulf or the Far East to SoCal ain't exactly free... I've been meaning to try a boil as opposed to just boiling the shrimp and stir-frying the rest... BTW Adam - I had to look up Conecuh sausage - it's regional... I'd have to hunt to find andouille around here, but I can get linguica (Portugese tongue sausage) and kielbasa (Polish sausage) without any strain... Cheers! Eric
Yes I'm sure trucking seafood to far away places makes the price jump. That sausage is popular here in the south, the county being only a short drive from home. It's some of the best!!
Hi Adam - Gees but do I like what you cooked up. Used to pig out on shrimp all the time living here on the BC Coast. Then..... I would get Gout from the shrimp - just at that age and spend days trying to walk with a club foot and all the other conditions associated with gout so I'll just watch in envy Rod
yeah my dad is goes fishing like 2 to 3 times a weak but now its like once every 1 week as his health isnt allowing him go there as much as he did long live abom the cooking machinist
That right there is some good eating Adam! Up here on the "Wet Coast" we do something similar, only including oysters and a clam bake, with slow smoked salmon and halibut. Putting jacketed potatoes right into the coals. Nothing like good eats!
If my arm was only 3000 miles longer... When I was a kid salmon was poor man's food. When they were running you could fish for them out of a small boat go to Gorst Creek or Chico Creek and net a 15 pounder out of the shallows. Not much regulation back then. Old men would set up along the road and sell salmon, halibut, cod, shrimp, oysters, and crab out of a pickup to supplement their pensions. There's a local song "Acres of Clams" that pretty much sums up life in Puget Sound up to 1960. Between hunting, fishing, home grown chickens, eggs, and rabbits, home vegetable garden, berry and fruit picking, and the occasional home raised beef, my extended family seldom bought meat except for bacon. My dad wasn't much of a hunter or fisherman but he could fix boats and firearms and keep Sea King outboards running from season to season so we participated in the family pool of plenty. Between that and home canned vegetables and fruits, we all ate very well even in WW II in times of rationing. But it was a lot of work to get all this plenty in and canned, preserved, cut, wrapped, frozen, etc. Before we had home freezers we had local frozen foor lockers. I remember going to the with my Dad to T & E Refrigeration for the next few day's meat. Pictutre a big walk-in freezer subdivided into aisles of wire mesh lockable closets and cabinets. I was a husky kid when I was in the 6th grade. So was my cousin Doug. Somewhere in the family archives is a picture of Doug and I standing on one end of a 2 x 12 teetering on a rock. Balancing us were five whopper salmon on the other. M-m-m-m!. Baked salmon. Venison stew. Moosemeat chili and home made bread. Apple pie made with Grandps John's King apples. Summer salads. We pooled and shared: life was good when us kids grew up.
That is making me hungry!!! I live a couple miles from the ocean and love seafood. I'm going to make your boil next weekend. I'l use a JO #2 crab spice since I buy it by the case and have a bunch sitting around. Keep the BBQ videos coming!!!! Chris
I get a 50lb box of JO no. 2 crab spice every spring and divvy it up with a few friends using coffee cans. next spring I'll send you a coffee can of spice if you want. Chris
Navarro Eletrônica We've got some Churrascarias around here - the Brazilian guys even like one or two of them! ;^)
9 лет назад+1
chemech Yeah! I went to Florida two times but the barbecue there isn't like the Brazilian one. They make barbecue without the coal and it's a part of the taste of our barbecue. ;^) Regards!
+Navarro Eletrônica - similar issues here in California - it's very difficult to get a permit from the air pollution control people (the South Coast Air Quality Management District, aka the AQMD) for anything other than natural gas firing for commercial places... the US style BBQ joints can use wet wood chips in their smokers, but not charcoal - the only exceptions being places that were in operation 50+ years ago, and small places that only operate on Sundays... The Churrascarias are too recent to get permits for charcoal... :^( All the Best, Eric
You can do cooking videos any time Adam, boils are something we just just don't see up here. There is an exception for the best eating sea food though I luv the ocean eats but can't buy shit. But for fresh water, we'll take you into BC up north of another you tuber..AvE , for some fresh water fighters light line game fish. But I'm guessing nothing compares to open gulf water AWESOME!
It turn out great! I couldn't find red potatos so I replaced with white potatos, and the Swampfire is not available here in Argentina, but other than that, it was delicious. Perfect to eat with a cold Heineken...
This is the first time the wife has watched one of your vids - Now she wants to hop a plane to The States & invite herself to dinner at your place!!! Looks d'lish. Cheers, Bo
+Abom79 I did a low country boil for Fear the Walking Dead tonight. it was a big hit (but my friends asked for less spices next time). Thanks for introducing us to something new.
+Abom79 Only saw Zatarains at the store so i mixed up some seasoning from this website: www.ourfamilyeats.com/2012/06/low-country-boil-with-homemade-seasoning-mix/. i overdid the black and red pepper so our lips were burning but still good.
Hi Adam. You're wasting the best from the shrimp!! Haha!! In Spain we boil or preferably grill them with the head, and then we remove it and some people like to suck it. Despite you don't like to suck the head, which it a little nasty sometimes, it gives the meal a very nice taste. You have to try it sometime. Best!!
Nice. We can't get it quite that fresh up there. I also like to leave pre-peel, mix with some extra veggies, boil and leave it in the boil water and eat like a soup.The gulf shrimp we can get up here are definitely a little more than $5/pound.
Greetings from Africa - 2 questions if I may...does the water have to boil so vigorously, and do you 'de-vein' your shrimp? That is, do you open the back with a sharp knife and remove the 'vein', which is actually the alimentary canal, I think. I would like to try this recipe sometime, but have no access to a burner as powerful as yours, so I'm guessing that at lower boil rates, the cooking time will have to be increased slightly. Thanks for all your vids, keep up the good work.
For these gulf shrimp not everyone devaines them, just boil peel and eat. Some of the other shrimp are often times devained though. Just get the water to a rolling boil, but they don't need very much cook time.
We need more videos like this sir! I need to start doing this myself, since I love shrimp & can't find rubs local I'll need to search the web. I've given up on trying to do crawfish , I just can't figure how to fix it or how to eat them lol.
Great video, I like the sentiments of remembering or being reminded of when you were younger. Hey what year is your truck? Looks to be a 99 or 2000? I have a 99 with 136,000 on the Cummins. I love my truck.
Hey Adam E from OZ here--if you want a hand to eat all this stuff I am only to glad to give you a hand-- I don't want to see you struggling Adam.--that would not be mateship..
Can't ever replace a great Dad. Nothing beats good memories. Great watching but not without the narration. Thanks for taking us on a trip through your past.
Enjoyed this little video and your memories of dad. Memories are all we have. My died in 93, I was 15. Still miss him. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Thank you so much.
Good eats! Great story about your father. He probably did a lot of "Southern" stuff that you "took for granted".... didn't realize that there is nowhere else on this planet like that place. Cool stuff Adam.
Honestly I'm not sure if I'm more jealous of your machining skills or your cooking skills.
My Dad passed in 04. Glad to see you can remember the good times you had together.
Hey, I hear Ribs are better in the south. Can you show this Ohio boy your Rib secrets.
Great video, keep them coming.
You would not believe how hungry you made me! Thanks for all your hard work Abom. Keep them coming 😁
Adam, my daughter watching with me sees your logo and says "smile" when she sees you logo. I never saw it but I agree; makes dad smile too. Great eats bro.
Good to hear the story at the end man, it’s deffinitly relatable, a lot of us were brought up on fishing and doing large family cook outs with steak, burgers, fish and seafood boils
Adam,
Thanks for sharing your dad's seafood boil it sure looked delicious. Great memories you have for sure of your dad.
+Jeff Bernstein I enjoyed getting a chance to share a couple more stories of my Dad and our past Jeff.
Hi Bro,
I'm multicraftman, a subscriber but usually a very silent watcher but, being from Mississippi you just touched something very close to my heart, food.

+outsidescrewball Thanks Chuck. You know me, no bullshit. Keep it real! Maybe one day we'll get to have a fun BBQ together.
This is one of my favorite episodes to date. Simple, reminiscent, interesting.
Me and Scott had shrimp and oysters from Joe Patti's last weekend and i was telling him how cooking seafood always reminds me of our childhood and Dad.

Baking pies and cupcakes and making candies makes me think about him too since he loved being in his kitchen and baking with me and Kheilee. I've been missing him a lot lately.

Yep I remember that too. I miss him a lot but carry on all of the good memories. I'm glad he taught me how to cool shrimp. 😀
Thanks for sharing the stories of your dad and how he taught you to do the shrimp/seafood boils. All the best, RS
Thanks for sharing that story about your Dad and fishing.
DAM Adam…..now I want some shrimp !!
You're real lucky to be living down where you can get fresh seafood like that.
Cheer's buddy !
Real men cook with welding gloves!
Fuck an Ove Glove! LOL
Too awesome Adam! Those shrimp are huge. We used to have neighbors from South Carolina who would have shrimp boils (we live in the midwest). They would cover a picnic table with newspaper and dump the goodness out. Everyone would gather round and eat.
+craigleemehan That's how it's best done with a crowd, especially with crawfish.
Adam, so good to see a cook out video again! Please keep the videos coming regarding the Florida area. I love them.
Your welcome Dale. I'll see what I can do.
Hey Adam,
Looks damn good! As a kid, my folks, grandparents and my aunt, uncle and 3 cousins lived within a mile of each other. During the summer, my grandpa and uncle would fire up a large bbq that they built out of bricks (the grill was about 3 x 4 feet), we'd make home-made ice cream in the old-style hand cranked ice cream freezer. My mom would usually make potato salad and my aunt would bring something. I have fond memories of those times with my family and great food. You can't beat home made stuff! Thanks for the yummy video! I love shrimp, but on the west coast, they cost a fortune! There a fishing town (Half Moon Bay) about 20 miles west of us where you can buy stuff right off the boat. You can get some pretty good deals but not as cheap as you. There's also several seafood restaurants in HMB that are pretty reasonable and have great food! Thanks again and enjoy your shrimp boil!
Have a good one!
Dave
Thanks cool Dave. I have lots of memories like that too. Thanks for sharing.
great boil, love the Conecuh Sausage, made not far from here...........nice work and I bet your ole man is smiling right now.............and proud too.
+Rick L That Conecuh is some good stuff Rick! I never checked into it but I assumed its made in Conecuh county AL, is that right?
+Abom79 ....yes sir, ............they give free tours.....hmmm.
Nice video. I agree with nothing like living on the coast. Love fresh Gulf shrimp. No farm raised or imported shrimp for me. Thanks for sharing your Low Country Boil with us.
We ordered the swamp fire and did the "booth machine shop boil" and it was a HUGE hit..thanks for sharing Adam.
Thanks for sharing your family memories!
Just got back from the store. Water is boiling now. Thanks for the afternoon idea Adam.
Adam, You made me hungry. I might be down that way in a couple if weeks , and I may stop by to try some of your favorite foods. I like how simple that boil was to make. Later and bon appetit.

You're the best, Abom! I never knew about a 'seafood boil', until now. (I knew that the Harbor Freight welding gloves are only good for grilling...) Thanks, Abom!
Damn that looks good! Made me hungry, lol ;) Thanks for sharing with us, Adam.

Pensacola is a nice place to visit Herb. 👍

Why the change in careers?

Rode that Honda into many things over & over, still have the exhaust burns on my calf
Both my twin & I have the same burns, learned very quickly to lay that bike to the left, not right. Later in my early 30's I dislocated both shoulders on a Y 50... Don't ask it was 2:00 AM, & alcohol was not involved 😎
Or was it layer down on the right, both calves are burned.. DAMN
Sounds like the same kind of stuff me, Alex, and my other cousins have gotten into. LOL
...Pittmaster privilege eating in front of your audience....hahaha.!!! ..enjoy Adam enjoyed the video...
My thoughts exactly!👍
Greetings from Huntsville brother! I knew you were a machinist savant; however, I didn't know you were Emeril too! Take care!
Nice job Chef Abom Thanks for sharing
Really enjoyed it Adam. Keep these type of videos coming!
Looks good, Adam! We don't get shrimp like that up here in Jersey. You Southern guys keep all the real big ones to yourselves! I know we can beat that frozen corn though. There's a lot of fresh corn in this area. Thanks for sharing dinner with us!

My kind of eating, those of Us that live on the gulf coast are privileged when it comes to getting good seafood
+TIM WILSON Oh yea!
Man Were coming for dinner Adam .. I grew up on the coast miss that fresh sea food man !!
How'd ya migrate to the cold NorthWest?
I grew up on the west coast , Now I live inland from the coast !!
Boy I know that was good. I had a low country boil many years ago in south Ga. while spending a week watching trains. Our host put it on and it was some kind of good.

the only thing that would've impressed your family would've been an invite. I've been to those shrimp boils before and already know they're awesome.
LOL! You guys are in the Keys! Maybe next time. Y'all enjoy some of the awesome seafood down there.
Hi Adam - Gees but do I like what you cooked up. Used to pig out on shrimp all the time living here on the BC Coast. Then..... I would get Gout from the shrimp - just at that age
and spend days trying to walk with a club foot and all the other conditions associated with
gout so I'll just watch in envy Rod
yeah my dad is goes fishing like 2 to 3 times a weak but now its like once every 1 week as his health isnt allowing him go there as much as he did
long live abom the cooking machinist
Abom МОЛОДЦА !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Кто хорошо работает --- хорошо и кушает !!!
УДАЧИ !!!!
adam great food and memories is what is all about . bob
We make this while camping, SOOOOO good and it brings out the surrounding people :)
Adam, thanks for makin' me hungry.
that just made me hungry as all get out!!nice job sir.
That right there is some good eating Adam! Up here on the "Wet Coast" we do something similar, only including oysters and a clam bake, with slow smoked salmon and halibut. Putting jacketed potatoes right into the coals. Nothing like good eats!
+Rain Coast I have watched a couple seafood boils like that I want to try. Looks awesome!
Looks very good indeed bro! Best regards from Brazil!
Whoo-yeah, reminds me of a sweet afternoon getting 'shipwrecked' at Peg Leg Pete's. Thanks!

Balancing us were five whopper salmon on the other. M-m-m-m!. Baked salmon. Venison stew. Moosemeat chili and home made bread. Apple pie made with Grandps John's King apples. Summer salads. We pooled and shared: life was good when us kids grew up.
That is making me hungry!!! I live a couple miles from the ocean and love seafood. I'm going to make your boil next weekend. I'l use a JO #2 crab spice since I buy it by the case and have a bunch sitting around. Keep the BBQ videos coming!!!! Chris
I get a 50lb box of JO no. 2 crab spice every spring and divvy it up with a few friends using coffee cans. next spring I'll send you a coffee can of spice if you want. Chris
+shadowdog500 Hell yea! I'd love to try it!
Abom, you should do some barbecue like we do here in Brazil for your friends.
+Navarro Eletrônica Churrasco!
chemech
Picanha! Costela! Amazing brazilian food hahahah
Navarro Eletrônica We've got some Churrascarias around here - the Brazilian guys even like one or two of them! ;^)
chemech Yeah! I went to Florida two times but the barbecue there isn't like the Brazilian one. They make barbecue without the coal and it's a part of the taste of our barbecue. ;^) Regards!
+Navarro Eletrônica - similar issues here in California - it's very difficult to get a permit from the air pollution control people (the South Coast Air Quality Management District, aka the AQMD) for anything other than natural gas firing for commercial places... the US style BBQ joints can use wet wood chips in their smokers, but not charcoal - the only exceptions being places that were in operation 50+ years ago, and small places that only operate on Sundays...
The Churrascarias are too recent to get permits for charcoal... :^(
All the Best,
Eric
That RAM truck looks amazing. 😎
Makes me hungry. Thanks Adam
You can do cooking videos any time Adam, boils are something we just just don't see up here.
There is an exception for the best eating sea food though I luv the ocean eats but can't buy shit.
But for fresh water, we'll take you into BC up north of another you tuber..AvE , for some fresh water fighters
light line game fish. But I'm guessing nothing compares to open gulf water AWESOME!
I love all seafood Kelly. I'd love to try some fresh fish from the North.
I'd host one hell of a trip, in lake Babin, BC Adam you invited anytime
Dang Adam, now I got slobber all over my keyboard....
Regards,
Duck
I'm trying the recipe myself on this friday night. Looking really good man!
Awesome! How did it turn out?
It turn out great! I couldn't find red potatos so I replaced with white potatos, and the Swampfire is not available here in Argentina, but other than that, it was delicious. Perfect to eat with a cold Heineken...
This is the first time the wife has watched one of your vids - Now she wants to hop a plane to The States & invite herself to dinner at your place!!!
Looks d'lish. Cheers, Bo
Yumm! looks soooooo good, I'll take mine with a pound of butter and a bucket of salt please!
I enjoyed watching but I would rather been there eatin'!
+Abom79 I did a low country boil for Fear the Walking Dead tonight. it was a big hit (but my friends asked for less spices next time). Thanks for introducing us to something new.
That's great man! I love the swamp fire, but there's other out there that's good too. I think Old Bay is one of the most popular.
+Abom79 Only saw Zatarains at the store so i mixed up some seasoning from this website: www.ourfamilyeats.com/2012/06/low-country-boil-with-homemade-seasoning-mix/. i overdid the black and red pepper so our lips were burning but still good.
Hi Adam. You're wasting the best from the shrimp!! Haha!! In Spain we boil or preferably grill them with the head, and then we remove it and some people like to suck it. Despite you don't like to suck the head, which it a little nasty sometimes, it gives the meal a very nice taste. You have to try it sometime.
Best!!
Now I'm hungry, dang sure looks good.
Nice. We can't get it quite that fresh up there. I also like to leave pre-peel, mix with some extra veggies, boil and leave it in the boil water and eat like a soup.The gulf shrimp we can get up here are definitely a little more than $5/pound.
Makes me wonder if they are actually fresh gulf shrimp...😕
Yeah, me too.
Great job cuz. I will be expecting some next time I'm there. :)
Let's do it!!
Man that sure looks great! Made me hungry!!!
I just finished my supper , now you are making me hungry again.
That new addition makes a nice place to do your boil. What you going to do when it turns into a shop? Lol.
Got plans for a new outdoor area behind my house. All in good time.
A great family tradition Adam,,, thank you for sharing Man......... :o) O,,,
Adam, that was awesome! You should do a weekly cooking vid.
If run out of things to cook. Can only show so much BBQ. 😆
IT`S ALWAYS NICE TO SHARE. STARVING.
Greetings from Africa - 2 questions if I may...does the water have to boil so vigorously, and do you 'de-vein' your shrimp? That is, do you open the back with a sharp knife and remove the 'vein', which is actually the alimentary canal, I think. I would like to try this recipe sometime, but have no access to a burner as powerful as yours, so I'm guessing that at lower boil rates, the cooking time will have to be increased slightly.
Thanks for all your vids, keep up the good work.
For these gulf shrimp not everyone devaines them, just boil peel and eat. Some of the other shrimp are often times devained though. Just get the water to a rolling boil, but they don't need very much cook time.
+Abom79 Thanks Adam, I'll try this soon.
Man that looks good, making me hungry!
love these videos adam
Hi mate.The liquid that you have left over you should try to save. It will become more tasty over time. Have a nice meal mate.
Looks tasty. I wish we could find the Fire seasoning in Canada.
Nice job Adam. Do a crawfish boil in the spring!
We'll make that one happen
Thanks Adam. now I'm hungry for shrimp. .lol
Ah man... that's makin' me hungry!
Great video man! I just subscribed to your channel.
We need more videos like this sir! I need to start doing this myself, since I love shrimp & can't find rubs local I'll need to search the web. I've given up on trying to do crawfish , I just can't figure how to fix it or how to eat them lol.
+adabezzi Here ya go. :) www.cajunwholesale.com/ccp51/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi?&pg=cat&ref=swamp_fire
+Abom79 thanks man! Definitely gonna try to get my boil on.
Looks great, now to see some crawfish boiling. I live in new England, I bet that spice package would be great in a lobster boil.
It's the best! Not sure if you can buy online or not. Never checked. It's local for me to buy it.
you should provide a bib with a vid like this... i drooled all over my shirt....
Great video, I like the sentiments of remembering or being reminded of when you were younger. Hey what year is your truck? Looks to be a 99 or 2000? I have a 99 with 136,000 on the Cummins. I love my truck.
You just had to do it......now i have to get something to EAT...!!!! ..looks good .....
LOL
Hey Adam E from OZ here--if you want a hand to eat all this stuff I am only to glad to give you a hand-- I don't want to see you struggling Adam.--that would not be mateship..
Cajun Boil looks great!
Well that's shop life right here!
