Ingredients
- 12 cups Water
- 4 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 units Lemons, halved
- 1.5 pounds Red potatoes
- 4 ears Corn on the cob, cut into thirds

- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped

Instructions
Fill a large stockpot with 12 cups of water and bring it to a boil over high heat.
Once the water is boiling, add Old Bay seasoning, minced garlic, and the halved lemons. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes to infuse the flavors into the water.
Add the red potatoes to the pot and cook for 10 minutes, or until they are slightly tender.
Add the corn on the cob and sliced smoked sausage to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Carefully add the crab legs to the pot and simmer for 5 minutes.
Finally, add the shrimp to the pot. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are fully cooked through.
Turn off the heat and use a large slotted spoon to transfer the seafood, sausage, and vegetables to a large serving platter or a lined table for serving.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and mix in parsley, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle this butter sauce over the seafood and vegetables.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with extra lemon wedges and additional parsley.
