Directions:
In 4-5 qt Dutch oven, heat butter over medium-high heat. Sauté sausage, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes, until sausage is browned.
Stir in onion, celery, carrots and garlic, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook 4-5 minutes, until onion and veggies are softened. Uncover and sprinkle flour evenly over vegetables, stir to thoroughly mix in flour and then cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Gradually stir in 1 cup chicken broth until flour is well blended into liquid.
Slowly add remaining chicken broth, then heavy cream, stirring constantly so no lumps form.
Increase heat to medium-high, slowly bring mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Add sweet potato and reduce heat to medium. Cover pot and simmer 8-10 minutes, until potato is just tender.
Add shrimp and remaining ingredients to pot, stirring to combine.
Simmer for 1 minute just until shrimp are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook shrimp.

Personal Notes:
When reheating any leftover, remove shrimp, bring mixture to simmer and add the shrimp just to reheat them. Served during Annual Rockport Shrimp Boil.
