- In 18-20-quart saucepot or crab boil pot, add beer, crab boil bags, lemons, water and salt; heat to a boil over high heat.
- Add potatoes and heat to a simmer; cook 10 minutes. Add onions; cook 5 minutes. Add snow crab, shrimp, sausage and corn; heat to a boil. Add butter and vinegar; cover and turn off heat. Let stand 10 minutes or until internal temperature of shrimp reaches 145° and shrimp turn opaque throughout.
- Drain snow crab mixture, reserving some cooking broth for serving, if desired; serve in very large platter or on a covered surface.
- Chef Tip(s): Adding the butter to the saucepot before letting the boil stand will make it easier to remove the crab and shrimp shells, while the vinegar adds a bit of acidity to the shellfish.
