- 30 minutes to make
- Serves 12
One of our favorite outdoor summertime picnics. You can use a turkey fryer to cook this up outdoors. Men love to gather 'round the fryer and "man" the boil as it cooks. Spread newspapers on a picnic table, drain the boil, and pour it all out down the center of the table for everyone to dig in. Read more Serve some beers and what more do you need for a good time?!

Oh, this is my favorite kind of meal. Adore any kind of low country boil and the more kielbasa the better.
