Fezmid Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Mostly from idjets that either put too much oil in the fryer, or put the top on the fryer and walk away despite the explicit instructions not to. You can also use the fryer for a low country boil.....mmmmmm. Not to mention a stojanload of wings. 130628[/snapback] Maybe... Still cause for concern. What's a low country boil?

Oneida Lake Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Word of caution. If you are not talking "Brown and Bag", but are talking the brown paper variety, be aware that there are now many additives to the paper put in through the kraft process. These chemicals can volatilize and get into the meat. Public Service Announcement A-146-7 130496[/snapback] And yes, this is the same Kraft family that owns the Patriots volatilizin' our meat!! I understand that the "officials" from the FDA that are supposed to be monitoring this poisoning of America are paid off!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did some environmental work for Union Camp in Savannah, had an engineer showing me how the stuff gets made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_BiB_ Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 One of the best things about the south. 130699[/snapback] One should steam the shrimp, not boil, so they don't get soggy. I like to steam them head on, so they keep their moisture. Use good ingredients and be very careful of your timing. Silver queen corn, vidalia onion, bite size new red potatoes. Boil the crabs until they just turn red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time I add them, enough water has boiled off that the shrimp sit on top of the other goods for some steamin'. Depending on the occasion, we'll either do our own spic emixture or just use the Old Bay Boil Bags. Ever had a bag break? Most people don't like it (too spicy), but damn does it give the boil some character. I actually prefer it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the mix we'd add some crushed juniper berries and garlic. It also doesn't hurt to add a bottle of dark beer to the boil water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanNC Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Propane is sacriledge. You ever pit cook a pig? 130590[/snapback] I haven't done it myself, although I have been to "pig pickings" where this was done. At one such event, when the pig was ready, the host took a long sword and skewered the eye of the pig, brought it up to his mouth and chowed down!!! Apparently it was some sort of tradition.
