Low Country Boil

Low country startes in South Carolina and goes to Florida and is just that.  The boil starts with small round potatoes put into boiling water.  10 minutes later you add the sausage.  10 minutes later in goes the corn on the cob and the shrimp.  Ten minutes later you drain the whole thing and dump it on a table and people eat it with their fingers putting the shrimp sause on the table for dipping.  Now imagine this for 30 people.  Then when everyone is totally stuffed, another pot is dumped.  Since noone can move, the guitars, flute, gutbucket, mandoline and spoons are brought out and every one sings until it is time for dessert.  Oh yeah, all this is after a coctail and munchies hour.
Being cruisers, it all starts about 4 and ends about 9 (cruisers midnight).  I can't move.
