 Prepping my seafood boil in a jar for camping.

12 shrimp

30 crawfish tails( packaged pre shelled)

1 link andouille sausage sliced so each jar gets an equal amount 

3 small potatoes 

1 can corn drained

1 green onion chopped divided equally 

3 tb spoon crawfish boil for boiling

Directions 

Boil shrimp,  sausage slices, and cubed potatoes with the crawfish boil.  Remove shrimp as they float to top. Cook potatoes til done.

Drain canned corn

Divide corn evenly into the 3 jars. Sprinkle a little crawfish boil over corn for spice, slice one green onion and divide between the jars. Layer crawfish tails, shrimp, potatoes and top with 2 tb butter. I used garlic butter. 

These will go in the freezer til I need them for the Camp out.

To reheat I will steam til hot.
