Don’t worry. Â No frogs were hurt in the production of this recipe.
Frogmore Stew is a close relative of a Low Country Boil – but without the crab legs or crawfish. Â Some people still call it a Low Country Boil either way – it doesn’t really matter what you call it just so long as you make you a big ol’ pot of it!
I’m not even sure who came up with the name Frogmore Stew. Â Was it first made by a frog lover, or maybe the inventor of this great dish was named Mr. Frogmore? I have no idea.
I am, however, completely sure you will fall in love with this recipe – and the way it is served – as much as we have. Â After all, eating off of newspapers isclassiness at it’s finest.
An added bonus – virtually no clean up. Â Just wrap up your newspaper, chunk it in the trash, & go be a couch potato. Â

haha I thought the same thing Nona did. We call this a low country boil & like you said no matter what’s added or what you call it it’s still delicious.

You add it in at the beginning, right before you put the potatoes in.
