Low Country Boil (with a Cajun flair!)

I'm a huge fan of Crawfish Boils and love when they are in season from April to early July. But during the rest of the year I really miss it and the Low Country Boil seems to tide me over until April comes again. But I make it taste a lot like a Cajun Crawfish Boil using the same spices and oils. It comes out spicy (as it should) and is very tasty. Leftovers are just as good! #mycookbook

I LOVE to cook and create. I tend to be heavy on spice and the savory dishes and I love making hot sauces and salsas which are now part of our new quick-service Mexican kitchen and taco truck business. Marinading and smoking meats is also one of my favorite hobbies as well.
