Tired of searching for the perfect seafood boil at a restaurant? Make your own ultimate seafood boil at home! With my seafood boil recipe and Creole garlic sauce, you’ll never have to search for the best seafood boil again.
It’s officially fish fry season, Cousins—and you know what that means, right?! It’s a MUST that your seafood boil recipe is ON POINT! If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know I shared a seafood boil recipe quite a few years back. Since then, I’ve stepped up my game and want y’all to step up with me! So today, I am introducing my new and improved ultimate seafood boil recipe, homemade on the stovetop.
Like my old recipe, I will not be making this deliciousness outside. I will also be using more seafood! I will still be using crab and shrimp, but I will be tossing in lobster tails as well. Once the seafood boil is done, we will drizzle some delicious Creole garlic sauce all over the crab, tender potatoes, fresh corn, lobster, shrimp, and andouille sausage. Is your mouth watering yet?!
What Is a Seafood Boil?
A seafood boil is exactly what it sounds like—a variety of seafood boiled in a flavorful broth with tons of seasoning. Seafood boils have a rich history that spans back centuries, and just about every region has its own variations. From the type of seafood used to the cooking method, seasonings, and even the added vegetables, there’s an endless combination of ingredients you can toss together to make a homemade seafood boil.
But what makes the ultimate seafood boil recipe? Well, Cousins, let me show you!
Seafood Boil Ingredients
So, what goes into a seafood boil? Tons of stuff! I’m going to break down the main ingredients into a few different parts. I’ll warn you, there’s a lot of ingredients. But the best part is that they’re simple ingredients, a lot of which you likely already have on hand (especially if you’re a regular cook like me). So, here are the main ingredients you need for the ultimate seafood boil recipe.
The Seafood:
- King Crab Legs: I usually cut the crab legs in half to make them fit better in the pot.
- Crab Claws: claws tend to have more meat than the legs, so I like using them when feeding a crowd.
- Jumbo Shrimp: I prefer peeled and deveined shrimp. We want clean shrimp in this recipe!
- Lobster Tails: the yummy delicacy is totally worth the expense in this seafood boil recipe!
The Vegetables:
- Sweet Corn on the Cob: cut the cobs in half to save room in the pot. You can also use frozen corn instead of fresh!
- Potatoes: I use Russet potatoes, but any kind will work—red potatoes, Yukon gold, whatever you prefer!
- Onions: I use yellow onions, but white onions or red onions would also work.
The Herbs & Seasonings:
- Seafood Medley of Herbs: my grocery store has a seafood medley, which contains fresh Italian parsley, fresh dill, and fresh thyme. I also add bay leaves. As long as you have those herbs, you’re good to go!
- Fresh Garlic: I use garlic in the broth as well as in the Creole garlic butter. Feel free to use fresh or jarred minced garlic.
- Cajun Seasoning: arguably the most important ingredient! My go-to seasoning for seafood boil is Tony Chachere’s Creole seasoning, my Down By the Bayou Cajun seasoning, or my Creole Lady seasoning. Of course, Old Bay seasoning is a seafood boil classic as well.
The Extras:
You need a few other odds and ends for this seafood boil recipe that, in my opinion, are just as important!
- Lemons: you’ll need lemon wedges for the seafood boil broth and garlic butter.
- Andouille Sausage: adds meat, some heat, and smoky flavor to the seafood boil. If you don’t like andouille, you can use any other kind of smoky sausage you prefer.
- Butter: and lots of it! I prefer salted butter but feel free to use unsalted.
- Apple Cider Vinegar: used in the broth for added flavor.
- Water: the base of the seafood boil broth. I prefer to use water and season it to my liking rather than chicken or seafood stock. (Pro-tip: keep the broth once the boil is done for a delicious homemade seafood stock.)
What other seafood can you use in a seafood boil?
You can use just about any seafood your heart desires. Seafood boils traditionally have crawfish, but I don’t use that in my recipe because I’m allergic to crawfish (I think that’s a good enough reason, right?!). However, if you love crawfish, feel free to use it. You can also use:
- Mussels, clams, or oysters (just make sure to toss any that don’t open after cooking—those are bad!).
- Scallops or squid.
- Different kinds of crab legs, like snow crab legs, blue crab, or Dungeness crab legs.
- Imitation crab meat.
- A frozen seafood medley from the grocery store (good if you’re short on time or on a budget). I prefer fresh seafood but use what works for you!
What is seafood boil sauce made of?
Seafood boils usually have two different sauces: the broth the seafood is boiled in and a seasoned sauce tossed on at the end. For my seafood boil recipe, I use water, lemons, onions, herbs and seasonings, and butter for the broth. I also make a bomb.com Creole garlic butter sauce that’s made with butter, Creole (or Cajun) seasoning, and hot sauce.
How much seafood do you need per person?
How much seafood you need for a seafood boil depends on how many people you’re serving. You can easily scale up this seafood boil recipe to feed an army! You should count on 3/4th of a pound to one pound of seafood per adult and about ½ of a pound per child. Remember that shellfish like crab legs, claws, and lobster tails have less meat than their overall weight. For example, a pound of crab legs will yield about ½ pound of meat.
How to Make a Seafood Boil on the Stovetop
Now, as I said at the beginning of this post, I don’t make my seafood boil outside. But, you certainly can—if you’re having a cookout and want to put on a show, toss a big ol’ pot over a propane take and let ‘er rip. Since this boil serves about five people, a large stockpot works perfectly fine for me.
If you want to see exactly how I make my ultimate seafood boil, be sure to watch my video tutorial below. I walk through the whole process step-by-step for you visual learners.
For complete instructions, read on! You can print the recipe card below with the exact measurements and directions.
Here’s how to make a homemade seafood boil:
- Start with the broth. We’re using a lot of water, which takes a hot minute to come to a boil. Gather the ingredients for the seafood boil broth—lemon wedges, herbs, garlic cloves, and butter. Place everything in a large pot, add the apple cider vinegar and Creole seasoning, then add your water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. When it’s come to a rolling boil, turn it down to medium and let the broth cook for 45 minutes.
- While the broth is cooking, prep the seafood, vegetables, and sausage. Make sure everything is nice and clean, chop up the sausage and potatoes, and shuck and cut the fresh corn cobs.
- Next, it’s time to boil! Fish those aromatics out of the broth as much as you can. If you leave some lemons and onions in there, it’s not the end of the world! Then you’ll start adding the seafood, sausage, and vegetables, starting with what needs to cook the longest.
- Add the andouille sausage and fresh corn. Let this cook covered over medium-high heat for about 15 minutes.
- Next, add the potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes. The larger the potatoes are, the longer they will take to cook.
- Next, add the crab legs, crab claws, and lobster tails and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.
- Finally, add the shrimp. At this time, turn the heat off. Shrimp cook quickly, so they should go in last. Let the seafood boil sit for about 10 minutes (with the heat off) while the shrimp cooks.
- While the seafood boil finishes cooking, make the Creole garlic butter sauce. In a small saucepot, melt a stick of butter along with minced garlic, lemon juice, hot sauce, and Creole seasoning. In addition to the Creole seasoning, I add paprika, black pepper, and parsley flakes—these are optional ingredients. I just love the red color paprika gives the sauce! Let the sauce cook over low heat for about 10 minutes.
- Finally, you’re ready to serve your seafood boil!
How do you serve seafood boil?
There are a few ways to serve seafood boil. You can do like I do and serve everything on a platter, drizzled with the flavorful, spicy Creole garlic butter. Or you can do the more traditional (and messy) route and dump everything out on a newspaper-lined table and dig in!
You can double the garlic butter recipe to make extra for dipping—the lobster and crab meat is amazing in that zesty sauce!
How do you store leftovers?
Seafood is pretty perishable, even when cooked, so leftovers should only be kept refrigerated for 1-2 days in an airtight container. Reheat leftovers in the oven or steam on the stovetop.
What to serve with a seafood boil?
This recipe is pretty filling on its own because we included potatoes and corn! However, you can serve seafood boil with sides like simple rice, garlic bread, or other vegetables like okra, green beans, etc. You could also pair it with mac and cheese, fresh greens, or collard greens.

Rosie I made your seafood boil yesterday and I must say it was the bomb, best flavor ever. I will continue to use this recipe.
Kate says
Great videos, recipes and information….no loud music, no theatrics, all the facts…..very nice.
We live on the east coast where seafood is plentiful so “low country boils” are held often.
They also include potatoes. I like your version and expect it to be fit for a king w all that lobster …
Jonathon says
This recipe is killer. Thank you.
One note (as someone previously naive to the existence of seafood boils). Nowhere do you mention draining the stock out. I originally thought it was intended to be a stew until I saw your video.
On the plus side, if you save the liquid it makes for a killer seafood risotto.
Thanks for the recipe!
Brande says
I’m going to do a seafood boil for my husbands 30th birthday in 2 weeks and have been scouring the web for a recipe. The photos and videos are amazing and I can’t wait to make this for the party!!! Girrrrrrrl you’re going to make me into a cooking fool!! Thank you!!!!!

KarimaB says
Hey GIRL! I’m so excited I’m doing this for Christmas tomorrow. This will be my first time ever doing a seafood boil. I chose yours because it looks so awesome and simple. I do wonder if using the creole seasoning will make it too spicy. I’m making it for my hubby and young children and we are not spicy eaters. I do plan to leave the hot sauce out. If it is spicy, do you have another alternative? Help a sister out lol!!
Rosie says
If you’re afraid of spice, you can use seasoning salt. XOXO
Donald Smith says
Rosie!!!!! Girl this was the first time I’ve ever done a crab and shrimp boil and from this point forward I won’t cook it any other way! That Creole Garlic Butter recipe was the greatest!!! Everyone left my house happy tonight!!! Thank you Rosie!

Marie says
This looks to be the best recipe I have found and am anxious to try it. I do need to double it though. Do you think this receipe would work if I used a clam steamer pot? I have 2-19qt pots I could stack on the bottom pot that would contain the broth. Thank you!
Rosie says
Hi there! For best results follow the instructions, XOXO.
Marie says
I did end up getting a large pot and followed the recipe exactly as directed. The results were excellent and everyone is still raving about this meal! So glad I found you!!!!

Veronica N says
I got rave reviews for this recipe!!! We are camping at the beach and I wanted to make a special dinner for my husband. Eatting seafood at the beach always makes us feel like it’s the fresh “catch of the day.” The only slight tweaks I made were to cut the hot sauce back by 1 tbsp and then I added 2-3 Bay leaves. My family went crazy for this recipe!! They Love-Love-Loved it!! Thank You so much for sharing an amazing recipe!!
Michael Smith says
Rosie I’m going to have to try this recipe, it looks amazing.

LaTiya says
My favorite Sea Boil!! I used this recipe several times and it’s always delicious!!! Tonight, I’m using it again to the delight of my immediate and visiting family members
Milah says
I just finished making this for our Holiday dinner. The broth base is PERFECT. I didn’t need to add nor take away anything. It’s just the right amount of flavor to have before adding the sauce, which was also DELICIOUS. I tripled the sauce recipe for extra, and I made one original, and the other with more of a lemon pepper flavor.
Linda says
Looks good
Meelah says
This is the best Seafood Boil recipe I’ve ever tried, and I’ve tried MANY. The broth, the sauce, everything about it was just so darn delicious. I’ve made the butter sauce so many times since trying this recipe. On days where I want something really quick, I make the sauce alone to pour over a quick batch of shrimp. Thanks so much for sharing!
I have a weird name says
That looks amazing. I have all of the ingredients for the seafood boil tonight, but do I need drawn butter to drip the lobster meat in or is the sauce enough?
Rosie says
Hi there! The sauce is enough for me. However, if needed, you can always use drawn butter.
