  • 1 tbsp Blazing Star Scorpion Rub
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

🔥Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients
     Parboil baby potatoes until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Mix the Seasoned Butter
    In a bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, Cajun Honey Rub, and Scorpion Rub. Stir until fully mixed.
  3. Assemble the Shrimp Boil
     In a large bowl or foil pan, combine shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes. Pour the seasoned butter over the top and toss until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Grill It Up
    Place the mixture in foil pans (or make individual foil packs). Grill or smoke on the Yoder Smokers YS640S Outlander at 400°F for 25–30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  5. Finish & Serve
     Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot, right out of the pan.

💡Pro Tips

  • For extra smoky flavor, cook uncovered for the last 5–10 minutes.
  • Want it saucier? Melt an extra ¼ cup of butter and drizzle over before serving.
  • Perfect to prep ahead for camping, assemble foil packs in advance and grill on-site!
