Ingredients
- 1 pound seafood boil seasoning, such as Old Bay
- 2 cups plus 3 tablespoons kosher salt
- 4 pounds new red potatoes
- 2 pounds kielbasa
- 4 ears fresh corn on the cob, peeled
- Four 1 1/2-pound live lobsters
- 1 pound unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with 3 gallons cold water. Add seafood seasoning and 2 cups salt. Add potatoes, cover and bring pot up to a boil.
- Meanwhile, cut kielbasa and corn cobs into 1-inch cross sections.
- Once pot comes to a boil, plunge lobsters into the boiling water. Cook, 3 minutes, then add kielbasa and corn and cook until the potatoes are cooked through, the lobster is bright red and claws reach 155 degrees F and the corn and kielbasa are steamy and tender, another 5 minutes. Remove all ingredients to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the butter, Cajun seasoning and the remaining 3 tablespoons salt. Toss in the bowl several times, and wow your guests by pouring the feast out on your table over newspaper or a washable tablecloth. Serve with wooden mallets and nutcrackers to open the claws and knuckles of the lobster.
