BEER-BOILED SHRIMP
This was my stepfather's crowd-pleasing recipe. It's simple to make, and the longer the shrimp sit, the better! You can prepare the shrimp a day ahead, refrigerate, and reheat before serving. The leftover liquid can be frozen and used to make great gumbo.

CAJUN SHRIMP BOIL
In New Orleans, a seafood boil, the Southern tradition of gathering around a newspaper-lined table to eat large amounts of boiled shellfish with your bare hands, is all about salt and spice. In the words of Jared Austin, a Mississippi riverboat pilot and seafood-boil master, ''Nothing about any of this is subtle - people standing around the pot should sneeze and cough.'' The key to a successful shrimp boil is layering ingredients into the pot so that everything is done cooking at once: First add the potatoes and sausage, then the shrimp, then the frozen corn to bring the temperature down and prevent overcooking. Let it all soak to absorb the salt and spice, then dump it out onto the table and eat with copious amounts of rémoulade. While this recipe can easily be halved, it's a simple - and extraordinarily fun - way to feed a crowd. Just remember to heed Austin's advice: ''Don't be afraid of cayenne. Don't be afraid to let your nose run.''

Steps:
- Fill a very large (24-quart) pot with 8 quarts of water set over high heat. Add seasoning pouches, cayenne, salt, onions and celery. Squeeze lemon juice, and add wedges. Break garlic into cloves, and discard excess skin, then add unpeeled cloves. Cover the pot, and bring to a rolling boil.
- Lay corn on a baking sheet in a single layer, then place in freezer.
- Taste the water after it comes to a boil. It should be very heavily salted and spiced, with a bright orange foam (when standing near the boiling pot causes you to cough, it's spicy enough).
- Add potatoes and sausage to the pot, and let the water return to a boil. Turn off heat, and allow to soak for 10 minutes or until potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Bring the water to a boil, and add shrimp. Cook for 3 minutes, then turn off heat, add corn and allow to soak for 7 minutes. Drain, and serve immediately with rémoulade (preferably on a newspaper-lined table).

SOUTH MISSISSIPPI SPICY BEER-BOILED SHRIMP
Steps:
- In a very large stock pot, add 1/2 gallon of water and the salt--after salt dissolves taste and adjust to desired salinity. Add Zatarain's package and liquid, olive oil, onion, bell pepper lemon, and 3-4 bottles of beer (have enough liquid to cover the shrimp). Bring to a rolling boil and cook until the liquid is dark (10 minutes or as long as it takes to drink a Red Stripe). Add Shrimp and let the pot return to a boil. If you need more liquid, add another beer. Boil for 5 minutes, turn heat off, and allow to sit for 10 minutes (or as long as it takes to drink a Red Stripe). Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. To cool down to eat, pour two bottles of Red Stripe over and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve immediately. Serves:
BEER SHRIMP BOIL
Steps:
- In a large pot, bring the beer, water, shrimp boil seasoning, salt, peppercorns and the juiced lemon halves to a boil over medium heat. Allow mixture to boil covered for 10 minutes.

- Add 1/2 cup of the beer boiling liquid to the butter and simmer for 2 minutes, then transfer to small serving bowls. Serve the warm shrimp with the butter dipping sauce on the side, and don't forget the empty bowls for the shrimp shells. Enjoy!
- Serving Suggestion: I love a great loaf of French bread with this to sop up the yummy sauce!
MISSISSIPPI BARBECUED SHRIMP
Wow! In the mood for a "forget the diet" shrimp dish? This is it. You will need a bib and lots of hot, French bread, and a couple glasses of red wine for the arteries. Serve big bowls for everyone's shrimp with empty ones in the middle for the shells. We serve the shrimp with the shells on and peel at the table while the butter sauce drips down to our elbows. We also serve a big bowl of steamed artichokes in the middle of the table family style, for dipping the leaves in the great sauce. Don't use the nice linens, use paper towels.

Steps:
- Combine the beer, pepper flakes, peppercorns and bay leaves in a large heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil, then boil for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp. Cover and cook until the shrimp are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain.
- Melt the butter. Stir in the lemon juice, black pepper and cayenne pepper.
- Serve the shrimp with the butter mixture, cocktail sauce and lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Frozen shrimp can be used, but fresh shrimp will give you the best flavor and texture.
- Choose the right beer. A light-bodied beer, such as a pilsner or lager, is best for this recipe. Avoid using a dark or heavy beer, as it will overpower the flavor of the shrimp.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important to not overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Boiled shrimp is best served hot and fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can keep it warm in a slow cooker on the lowest setting for up to 2 hours.

South Mississippi Spicy Beer Boiled Shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a party or a casual get-together.
