Super Deluxe Lobster Clambake Brings Some Sunshine To Winter
By Shannon Linnen
Summer is a great time for entertaining, and a very fun way to entertain is to invite your friends and family over for a clambake. and clams cooked over a fire, some exotic drinks, brightly colored decorations and appropriate music make for a great time for everyone.
However, when the weather is not cooperating, or even when winter hits, why not hold a clambake indoors? What a great way to bring the illusion of summer to a cold winter day! And it's a fun, easy and healthy way to entertain.
Instead of just any old clambake, consider having a super deluxe clambake, which is sure to please a variety of tastes. For your indoor clambake, purchase some fresh lobster, clams, shrimp, mussels, and maybe even some crab. You might also want to include some bisque or clam chowder on the menu, in addition to corn on the cob and roasted potatoes.
Besides the food for your super deluxe clambake, you will want to have a good supply of bibs on hand, claw crackers, lots and lots of napkins, and a good supply of pre-moistened towlettes. Seafood is delicious but it can be very messy indeed.
You may be wondering how you can have an indoor clambake, when the clams and other seafood at a clambake are traditionally cooked in a pit over an open fire. Easy! For this super deluxe clambake you will be doing all of the cooking on the traditional indoor stovetop!
Lobster stock pot is the only special equipment required to complete the cooking of lobster. A variety of models are available in the market and some incorporate a steamer rack and basket. Cooking supply stores and Internet
are the
places one should look for. As you search the net for your stock pot , you should do an extra search for an indoor clambake recipe
that sounds good.
To make preparing for you party and planning even easier,
there are many super deluxe clambake kits available. They can easily be found by searching the
Internet. Many of the kits contain everything you need, including wetnaps, claw
crackers and cloth napkins, in addition to the seafood itself. All you'll need
to shop for are the vegetables and you'll be all set for the most popular party
of the year.
Just because you don't live near or on the coast does not
mean you do not have to suffer without a Super Deluxe Clambake! Now that both
Fedex and UPS offer overnight shipping it has never been easier to have some
quality fresh seafood sent straight to your door. All you have to do is contact
one of the various online seafood vendors, give them a call or visit their website.
From there you can order up your clambake and start the countdown until it arrives.
