OBX 2014 - Steamer Pot From Cravings

Over the course of the week in the Outer Banks I'm pretty sure our house of 8 made a nice dent in Coastal Cravings pre-Memorial Day revenues.  Tom and I with another couple enjoyed a nice lunch their with fantastic crab cake sandwiches.  We decided to go back one night when we didn't feel like going out but also not cooking an elaborate meal.  So the Cravings steam pot seemed like a great idea.   This place was highlighted on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives for their scallop dinner and their steam pots.   A number of restaurants do steam pots but from the few that I researched this was the only one that included sausage, corn and potatoes with your steam pot.

The steam pot is great.  You order 30-45 mins in advance at a minimum, tell them how many people, what pot you want, and you are done!  You pick up a steamer pot (or aluminum can with a hole in the top) with instructions on how to cook.

This was so easy.  You take out the butter, shrimp and cocktail sauce from pot and sit on high burner for 20-25 mins until steams (see first picture).  Then timer another 25 mins, then put shrimp in and wait another 8 minutes.  Drain the pot and you are good to go!
This was a perfect meal for Tom and I and so very easy to do.  I would highly suggest getting a steamer pot while on vacation if available.  The Cravings pots were easy to use included a full meal with vegetables and protein and were delicious!

  1. Much appreciated such a great amount for this data. I need to tell you I agree on a few of the focuses you make here and others might require some further survey, however I can see your perspective. Similarities and differences of Broil king and Weber grills
