Ingredients

• 4 cups Water
• 1 cup White wine
• 2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
• 4 Garlic cloves (smashed)
• 1.5 pounds Small red potatoes
• 12 ounces Smoked sausage (cut into 2-inch pieces)
• 4 ears Corn on the cob (cut into 3-inch pieces)
• 2 pounds Littleneck clams
• 2 pounds Mussels
• 1 pound Large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 2 Lemons (cut into wedges, for serving)
• 0.5 cup Butter (melted, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the water, white wine, Old Bay seasoning, and smashed garlic cloves. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the red potatoes to the pot, cover, and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until they just start to soften.

Step 3

Add the smoked sausage and corn to the pot, layering them on top of the potatoes. Cover the pot and cook for another 10 minutes.

Step 4

Rinse the clams and mussels under cold water, discarding any that are open and do not close when tapped. Add them to the pot, along with the shrimp, layering them on top of the corn and sausage.

Step 5

Cover the pot and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the clams and mussels have opened and the shrimp have turned pink. Discard any clams or mussels that have not opened.

Step 6

Carefully remove the pot from heat and toss everything gently to coat in the flavorful broth.

Step 7

Transfer the clambake to a large serving platter or individual bowls, making sure to spoon some of the broth over the top.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges and melted butter on the side.
