I made this for dinner and it was so good I left out the beer though and I don't like spicy so no Old Bay seasoning

In reply to D. Hi D! You would need to cut the cooking time down to just 1 minutes, and that risks the corn and potatoes being undercooked. I recommend jumbo shrimp for best results.

In reply to Kristen Chidsey. If its smaller frozen cooked shrimp what will the time/pressure adjustment be?

In reply to JJ. Hi there! I don't have a recipe myself for making shrimp boil on the stovetop. It is a bit different and involves multiple steps. This recipe for Shrimp Boil on the Stovetop has great reviews.

Can you make this on the stovetop or slow cooker?

In reply to Ruby N. Hi Ruby! I am so happy to hear you enjoy this recipe so much! As for adding more liquid, it would change the cooking time and flavor. Sorry!

I’ve made this several times because it is sooo delicious. The only complaint is that there isn’t enough juice at the end to make it soupier. Could I double the liquid ingredients and seasonings without doubling the meats and potatoes? Or would that throw off the flavor?

If i wanted to just do shrimp and potatoes will that be okay and still have the same cooking time?

If I double the shrimp and corn does the cook time remain the same? Thanks

This recipe packs some flavor! I have an 8qt Instant Pro and it took about 6min to come to pressure. The quick release took another 2-3min after cooking was complete. I used Magic Hat #9 for the beer (it’s not quite a pale ale). I also added some lemon zest once it was complete which brightened the flavor.

I used a Foodi Ninja air fryer for the bread at 350 for 4min. This crusted the pieces perfectly. Thanks for the share!

In reply to Lauri. If you have an 8 quart model...yes. it is a bit close to too much to double in 6 quart.
