"Insane food boil! We always take the food boil to go and finish it off at home and it’s amazing! Huge crabs and tasty shrimp, tender scallops and the sauce is to die for!"

"Wish we had ordered this more than once! It was delicious and a perfect last meal of our vacation. We got the bigger bucket with extra crab for six adults and we shared a little with the kids who wanted to try it. Generous serving sizes. Easy to follow directions, easy clean up."

"Update: I ordered another steamer for delivery for my husband’s birthday. It arrived yesterday and was perfect! The seafood stayed fresh with the ice packs and cooler bag. Highly recommend.
We are on vacation and this was a dinner we had on our must try list. We ordered online and it was ready when we arrived. The staff member was very kind and informative, letting us know each step to get this good stuff steamed up. They also provide printed instructions. I’m not sure which bucket we ordered, but it had shrimp, clams, crab, potatoes, sausage, kielbasa, onions, and scallops. It was more than we could finish at one sitting, but we look forward to finishing off the leftover shrimp and potatoes! I love that we get to keep the bucket and we plan on ordering for home delivery in a couple of months. It was so good! And fun!"
