Low-Country Boil with Prawns, Corn, and Sausage

This classic low-country boil is a spectacular high-protein feast that brings the flavour of a coastal summer to your dinner table. Combining succulent prawns, smoky pork sausage, and sweet corn on the cob, this one-pot meal is designed for sharing. The broth is infused with lemons, bay leaves, and a punchy seasoning mix, ensuring every potato and prawn is packed with a savoury, spiced DEPTH.

Ideal for casual entertaining or a family weekend treat, this dish is traditionally served spread across a large table for everyone to help themselves. High in protein and naturally filling, the combination of seafood and meat makes it a satisfying main course. Serve it alongside the sharp, homemade cocktail sauce and a zesty lemon butter to elevate the fresh flavours of the shellfish.
