Preparation

Step 1

Clean garlic and chop each into 4 sections. Place about 1 gallon of water into a large stockpot .

Step 2

Add garlic, oil, bullion cubes and black pepper to the water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Husk corn. Place into a separate pot and boil for about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.
Place red potatoes in the corn pot and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until you can puncture the potatoes with a fork.

Step 3

Rinse all crab and shrimp in water, but do not shell. Add crab and shrimp to the water after the stock pot mixture has been simmering for about 1/2 hour. Turn on the heat to medium-high. Chop smoked sausage, then add to the pot. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes, or until the flesh turns opaque and pearl-like in color. enjoy!
