Notes: This recipe is a rendition of “The whole shabang” from a restaurant in California called The Boiling Crab (Hence this sauce could be used on crab legs, or other seafood of your choice such as lobster, crawfish, mussels,& oysters)
- *Note If you are making the stock pot of corn,sausage, potatoes you can cook shrimp in that pot instead (boil for 3-5 minutes) Remove shrimp from pot and put in large bowl, bag or pan and toss with sauce. Serve with white rice or French fries
