📖 INTRODUCTION:
Imagine the sweet snap of corn, tender bites of shrimp, juicy sausage, and buttery roasted potatoes — all seasoned and steamed to perfection inside their own foil packet. That’s what makes this dish simple, rustic, and wildly flavorful. It’s your entire meal in one pouch, ready to bake, grill, or toss over a campfire.
Perfect for busy weeknights, summer BBQs, camping trips, or family cookouts, these foil packs are fun to make, easy to clean, and bursting with Southern coastal flavor.

🌍 ORIGIN:
This recipe draws inspiration from the iconic Low Country Boil, a traditional dish from coastal South Carolina and Georgia, where shrimp, corn, sausage, and potatoes are boiled in large pots for gatherings.
This foil pack version is a modern take — offering all the same flavor but with less mess, no giant pot, and built-in portion control. It’s an evolution of outdoor cooking techniques that blend Southern hospitality with camping convenience.

🎎 CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE:
Shrimp boils and seafood feasts are deeply rooted in Southern American food culture. They’re about togetherness — large gatherings, laughter, and food eaten with your hands. These foil packs allow you to enjoy the same social, communal experience in a smaller, more manageable way.
Whether cooked on a grill, baked in an oven, or tossed in the coals of a campfire, they’re a celebration of:
Summer evenings
Backyard family fun
Beach vacations
Road trips and RV adventures

📝 TIPS FOR SUCCESS:
Precook potatoes in the microwave or boil for 5 minutes to ensure they soften fully in the pack.
Use heavy-duty aluminum foil to prevent leaks and tears.
Double wrap if placing directly over open flames or hot coals.
Don’t overcook the shrimp — it only takes 8–10 minutes to get tender.
Customize seasoning to your spice preference (Old Bay, Cajun, lemon pepper, etc.).
For big groups, let everyone build their own packet — fun and fuss-free!

👩🍳 INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high or oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Lay out 4 large sheets of heavy-duty foil.
3. Divide the shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes evenly among the foil sheets.
4. In a bowl, mix melted butter, garlic, and seasoning. Drizzle over each packet.
5. Toss ingredients gently on the foil to coat.
6. Fold foil over contents and seal tightly into packets.
7. Grill or bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
If using precooked potatoes, 15–18 minutes may be enough.
8. Carefully open packets (watch the steam!), sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.
