Recipe notes:
- If you would like to cook this indoors on your stove, use the largest stock pot you have and cook as directed in the recipe. You will need to cut the recipe in half.
- Most sausage is gluten-free, but always check the labels. Johnsonville has a very clean ingredient list.
- We love to leave the shells on the shrimp, but if you don’t, you can use peeled raw shrimp and cook for the same amount of time.
- Make your boil spicy by adding hot sauce to the finished dish
- Serve with cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, and clarified butter (dairy-free), or ghee (dairy-free)
