Where u from

As a southerner the amount of joy over the low country boil is, as we would say, ✨precious✨

Oh boys the Decatur box filled me with the feels. Partly because I’ve actually had one of their books at a pop-up in London earlier this year. But mainly because anything New Orleans food related instantly has my heart.

Definitely love the shrimp boil over the welly kit. I've had the opportunity to partake in a homemade shrimp boil (complete with newspaper lined dining table, rather than a tray), and it was so much fun and so easy (I think there were 8 of us). It's definitely a big hit with groups of people, where I think the welly is more for a nice night in with your S/O.

The blooper was golden! 😂

Also the spice blend that you can find all over the south is called Old Bay Seasoning ❤️ And a Florida/Georgia favorite to include is whole blue crabs.

You know, I'm getting the feeling that Jamie's stomach was born on the wrong side of the Atlantic. All of his food loves seem to be decidedly American. 😂

This was the happiest I've seen the four in a while.

The little out take thing was hilarious

The blooper was fantastic.

Jamie: “…I made a beef Wellington at Christmas…” Me: Beef Wellington? These boys are definitely no longer Normals! Ebbers, I think you’ve taught them well.

I loved this ep!! Everyone looked like they had so much fun

The smell in that building from the seafood boil must have been heavenly.

The shrimp boil is really something special. One of those dishes where decorum goes out the window with sleeves rolled up, butter dribbling down your face and sweetcorn in your hair. I’d take that any day over the albeit delicious wellington that requires a somewhat more sophisticated table manner (ie cutlery 😂)

Oooooohhhh yeahhhh! Restaurant kits! Just wanted to say, I signed up to the sorted club on Friday. The best purchase I’ve ever made, thank you for the free month!

I‘m already looking forward to what you guys do for Christmas this year. I‘d love to see some „christmas dishes around the world“ or due to current shortage crisis in the UK. „Alternative dishes to the Christmas turkey“ Combining both ideas in a little trivia. My family postpones goose and/or duck for the first or second day of christmas, having some venison the other day and on christmas eve we usually have „Karpfen blau“ which translates to „carp blue“. It‘s a whole cooked carp which is afterwards very thoroughly deboned and served with floury potatoes and horseradish in the cooking liquid and liquid butter. However only some very specific regions in Germany (as far as I know) know carp for christmas.

A few years ago, the Today Show broadcast how their staff devours food after a cooking segment. I would have loved to have seen how the SortedFood staff feasted on the shrimp boil after the filming was complete.

The way Ebbers caught that lemon. Smooooth

I used to work at a steel mill in the south. We used to make a crab boil every couple of months. Throw the ingredients into a couple of pots, then place them inside a freshly rolled coil of sheet steel. Cooks a treat. Something about a couple of tons of sheet steel rolled into a coil (at about 800 degrees F) makes an amazing oven.

I love how Ben immediately after hearing and seeing what it is commandeers the box. (Just to be on the safe side)= Hilarious. Great Video guys
