NC Frogmore Stew

The seafood and sausage you put in your stew can be adapted to your personal preference.  We love to add mussels when they are in season.  This is a great recipe for a crowd.  Just pour it all out onto a table covered with newspaper and dig in making sure to supply plenty of napkins.
