Low Country Boil BGE Style

Cadillac Grill'n

I decided to try what we call a "low country boil" in my Dutch Oven instead of the big pot we typically use. I couldn't cook as much but didn't need to this time and it turned out fantastic. :P I think a cast iron pot should be added to the "must have" accessory list.

Any pointers on getting pictures to aling vertical instead of horizontal?

Thanks,

Cadillac,

Can you share the details of this cook--I'm from the north and don't do many (well any) boils.

This looks good and I would like to try it.

Thanks,

Ed

I usually do my boils on a turkey fryer. Do you think that doing them on the egg gets you more flavor? Did you add wood chunks?

I typically do mine on the fryer as well. I got about the same amount of flavor but I did not add any wood chunks. Me and my wife discussed yesterday and I think next time I will add some chunks to see if it would add some additional flavor. I liked it because it was very quick to cook.
