Made for the lake... "TRASH" on the lake. Serves 12

You’ll need for cooking:

Propane cooker, 5 gallon lard can – find at “real” hardware stores (reusable), Lid to hardware can with 5 ice pick size holes (no bigger) in an X manner with one in the middle, four at the edges. Hardware wire (galvanized) with small squares – not window screen

Food:

14-16 chicken breasts bone in-about one per person-few more if small
5 lbs of Polish sausage (Kielbasa) cut in ~2 inch links –about 1/3 lb per person
15 small red potatoes – about 3 per person
8-10 ears of corn broken in half
10 medium sweet onions

1 package crab boil
Bay seasoning-about ¼ can

Rub the chicken breasts liberally with the bay seasoning at least 6 hours before cooking.

1. Place bag of crab boil on bottom of the lard can.
2. Fashion and place about a 1 ft square piece of wire in the bottom of the can so the food sits about 3 inches above the bottom.
3. Put 2 inches of water in the bottom.
4. Layer chicken, potatoes, corn, onions and sausage in the can. Try to arrange so steam can make its way throughout the layers.
5. Cover and adjust flame so it’s hot but doesn’t come up over the can sides – needs a fairly hot flame-not a blast furnace.
6. Wait until steam starts coming out of the top of the 5 holes in the top. When 45 minutes have passed the trash is ready(or steam stops).

Dump out on newspaper on a table and then let everyone come serve themselves. Careful, there will be a little water in the bottom.
