    Would be good to see a DIY comparison - along the lines of “So you’ve done the kit now source & buy the produce yourself then make it”. To answer the questions a) Did the kit teach you? b) How much money can you save (or is the kit a really good deal) c) Without the kit does your own taste as good

    I used to work at a steel mill in the south. We used to make a crab boil every couple of months. Throw the ingredients into a couple of pots, then place them inside a freshly rolled coil of sheet steel. Cooks a treat. Something about a couple of tons of sheet steel rolled into a coil (at about 800 degrees F) makes an amazing oven.

    I‘m already looking forward to what you guys do for Christmas this year. I‘d love to see some „christmas dishes around the world“ or due to current shortage crisis in the UK. „Alternative dishes to the Christmas turkey“
    Combining both ideas in a little trivia. My family postpones goose and/or duck for the first or second day of christmas, having some venison the other day and on christmas eve we usually have „Karpfen blau“ which translates to „carp blue“. It‘s a whole cooked carp which is afterwards very thoroughly deboned and served with floury potatoes and horseradish in the cooking liquid and liquid butter. However only some very specific regions in Germany (as far as I know) know carp for christmas.

    Here in the American South (Charleston), we'd never put mussels in it, but I've seen it with crab before. We call it Frogmore Stew, or Lowcountry Boil. For it to be a true Louisiana boil, it needs to have crawfish. Just a bit of American regionality.

      I was raised to put in whatever the heck you wanted to and leave out whatever you wanted. No rules. Our house always has mushrooms and andouille sausage. We will buy out 3 or 4 grocery stores of mushrooms. People fight over them, they're always the first thing completely gone.

      As Louisiana native who spent 6 years in South Carolina, outside of the protein, there is largely just the cayenne levels and the ratios of other seasonings that separates a Low Country Boil and a Crawfish Boil.
      Don't throw away those onions and garlic heads. They have soaked up so much flavor and are amazing on their own.

    For the low country boils we have at the beach, we use shrimp instead of live seafood, and will strain the ingredients, put them all back in the pot and pour the whole pot on a parchment paper lined table with bowls of melted butter, cocktail sauce, dollops of mustard and relish right on the table. It's so fun and ceremonious to get a photo of that big pour and the whole family can eat standing around the table with a nice view of the beach from the balcony. So messy and fun with zero dishes to be done aside from the pots!

    These meal kits are pretty cool. I really like the low country boil ( what we call the shrimp boil here) . The price of seafood can be pretty expensive, so adding it all up, and the seasoning blend plus the lemons, onions, garlic, etc. the price is actually really good!

    Sorry, Tabasco Sauce or its not a full boil and this from an actual nawliner. (wink). Honestly, you need at least two sausages Boudin and Cajon. You really dont need the kit but its convenient. Neighborhood boils start with "I gots a pot brings the food" and pretty much the neighbors brings in food to toss in the pot: you can have Kielbasa, Boudin, shimp, fish (red snapper is the go to down here), crawdaddies (cause someone will go down to the bayou and net some up) , fresh water crabs (again the bayou), chicken (every thing but the head we eat the feet down here). It's really a communal pot and a lot of fun. If you come to Nawlins, you have to hit the local community pots for authentic neighborhood created pots (each one will be different in some way, our Mexican community has tripe in their, the German community has extra extra sausages and use beer instead of water) that will blow your palate away. Boils are a culture and we dun mind if others make their own, we in fact encourage it.

However, for the price, the kit really should come with the full recipe on how to make it as well as the kit instructions. That way people can learn to cook such an awesome meal.
