This seafood boil is an old recipe perfect for family get-togethers. It's good and fun, and clean-up is easy. It's best made outside and served on a picnic table covered with 4 to 5 layers of newspaper. Remove everything from the pot, drain, and spread in the center of the table. Gather everyone around and enjoy the feast. When everyone has had their fill, gather up the leftovers (if there are any), put all the scraps in the center of the table, roll up the newspaper around them, and put them in the trash. Wash the one pot, and the cleanup is done. Have fun and enjoy.
