This pot is a fun way to feed a crowd for a tailgate. You can serve it two ways: Drain the cooking liquid and pour out the pot on a paper-lined table so folks can dig in, or serve it as a stew in its liquid over hot rice. -Melissa Pelkey Hass, Waleska, Georgia

This crab boil is a great way to use up leftover seafood. I always have some left over after a seafood feast and this is a great way to use it up.
