Low Country Boil

This dish is truly amazing!  Great for entertaining!  Yummy and easy, a winning combination. I ran out of onions so I used dehydrated onion flakes, and it worked fine. 
To make this dish you will need: 
Crab boil seasoning (I use Old Bay)
12 baby red potatoes
3 ears of corn, shucked and silk removed, cut in half

2 12 oz cans or bottle of domestic beer
1 medium-size white onion, quartered
2 packages smoked sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces

4 lobster tails (optional)
1 lb medium to large raw shrimp, in the shell

1.)  In a stockpot, pour enough water to cover all the ingredients. Add a sprinkling of crab boil seasoning appropriate for the amount of water used. Bring to a boil.
2.)  Add the potatoes, corn, beer, and onion. Reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
3.)  Add the smoked sausage and the lobster tails. Cook 20 minutes more.
4.)  Add the shrimp and cook about 3 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink. Drain the liquid into the sink and pour the boil onto a big serving platter or bowl. Sprinkle with extra crab boil seasoning.
