baci's baking - Low Country Boil

I love recipes that remind me of our time living in the south and this one is at the top of my list! Low Country Boil was created when a National Guardsman needed to create a meal for 100 soldiers so you know it has to be simple. Low Country Boil can be served on newspaper-lined tables for a quick clean up and can be doubled and easily doubled again the larger the crowd you're feeding, all you need is a bigger pot :o)
