Poochie Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 There's pork and green onion sausage, fresh corn, taters, lemon, shrimp, and the papery thing is a head of garlic that comes out nice and easy to peel. Good meal and for a change of pace, wasn't cooked on the Komodo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Looks yummy - where I live they would call that a low country boil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Nice Job, Poochie! Want to see some mudbugs in there next time! What ckreef said! While I grew up at the other end of the state, I've had the pleasure of many a low country boil down around Beaufort, Edisto, and Bluffton!

Poochie Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Never heard of a low country boil, but I'm down here in Cajun country. The mudbugs are going to have to wait for about 3 weeks when the season opens again. I'm sure the price will be higher than a giraffe's a$$.

Next time somebody asks about that cook just tell them you did a "low country boil". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hard to beat a good shrimp boil! And that looks like some kind of delicious. Kudos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 You know how I hype the hell out of using a pressure cooker. Well it is a great device for a low country boil let me tell you that! I mean it is fun to go out back and get your big propane tank and your giant pot and do it outside for a party but it's really fast and quick and much easier with the pressure cooker.

MacKenzie Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 I was out for dinner this week and had halibut with giant shrimp. I could have sworn that the shrimp was cooked in butter but the chef assured me that there was no butter involved only olive oil and spice. I thought I'd died and went to heaven and I'm not a fan of shrimp. Lucky me the person I was with didn't like shrimp so I had two of these beauties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Doc, I would never question your methods. That said, do you have any idea what would happen to me if I ever fed anyone shrimp cooked in a pressure cooker? Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, do you have any idea what would happen to me if I ever fed anyone shrimp cooked in a pressure cooker? Robert I have to agree with this. I'm not even willing to try. As for low country boil - in a pressure cooker - sounds more like a northern city boil to me. I think you missed the idea of a low country boil - more to do with the cook than the finished product.

bryan Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Does this mean escargot is nasty? And speaking of mud bugs? Come on guys don't knock it if you ain't tried it. That's like people knocking the Komodo Kamado. We are able to do what we do because Dennis went outside the box. Some of which Doc contributed to way back in the beginning making him part of the out of the box team. Looks like he has not changed.

mguerra Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I acknowledged the party fun of an outdoor boil we do them once in a while. And the work of it. The pressure cooker is a way to knock it out for you and your spouse any day of the week you don't need to have a weekend party . You pressure cook everything except the shrimp, after everything else is cooked (and it only takes a couple of minutes), do you then throw the shrimp in the pot shut the lid and let them cook with the residual heat for just a few minutes. I am always trying to figure out ways to take cooks that are normally reserved for special weekends and modify them so you can have them any day of the week. Thus the notion of the hot fast brisket and the pressure cooker Lowcountry boil. Last night I was at a dinner party and the hostess stood there for goodness knows how long cooking risotto. I did not have the heart to tell her that she could've just thrown all the ingredients in a pressure pot, pushed one button, and then grabbed her drink and head over to the fire to visit with her guests, sit down, and relax. If you have ever cooked risotto at the stove and then got an equally fabulous result by throwing it in the pressure cooker you will NEVER stand at that stove again! I have said it here before and I will say it again, once you learn how to use a pressure cooker it will change your cooking life. When you want to do something the long slow tiresome way for the convivial fun of the party, by all means do it. But if you just want to get some food on the table on a Tuesday night there are other ways to do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Doc, I read your risotto with great interest. I love risotto and if I can get it done in a pressure cook even close to what I like, I'm all over it. Keep up the good work! And keep posting it here.
