Campfire Frog Leg Frogmore Stew Recipe

Call it Frogmore Stew, Lowcountry boil, or Beaufort Boil, everyone loves the spicy mixture of seafood, potatoes, corn, and sausage. During the summer, we like to toss frog legs into the mixture. But sometimes you don’t have time to cook an entire pot. Or maybe all you have is a campfire or grill, but you still crave those spicy flavors.

Try wrapping your ingredients in a double layer of foil, adding a bit of beer or water to make steam, and tossing them directly into the campfire coals or into a bed of charcoal on the grill. The small packets cook quickly since you don't have to wait for an entire large pot of water to boil. They also allow each person to individualize their meal to their preference. 

Since the seafood and sausage do cook so quickly, cut the potatoes into small pieces so they cook through without overcooking the seafood. Anytime I can leave the shell on shrimp in a recipe, I do. The extra flavor they shells add to the dish is worth the time it takes to finish peeling the shrimp while eating.
