We used to have garbage can cookouts with a new metal can over a small fire with a grill for the can to sit on and we added water to the bottom, layered potatoes, chicken, kielbasa, and corn on the cob, covered and let steam for an hour or so. When everyone was drunk it was time to eat. Later, I began to do it in a pot inside for just a few of us. It was faster and no one was drunk. It was much nicer that way. Thanks, Julia. A little walk down memory lane for me. 💕💕💕

My wife and I have been making this dish since the first time you showed it on America's Test Kitchen. We went big years ago and started making it outdoors in a 160 quart pot. That fits about 3 kielbasa, 4 bags of potatoes, 400 clams 20 corn and 20 lobsters. We also put down a shower curtain on the table and throw all the garbage on there so once everyone is done we just pick up the shower curtain and fold and toss. This recipe has brought us and our friends much joy. Thank you

As the son of a (retired) lobster fisherman, I learned that you can 'hypnotize' a live lobster by rubbing between the eyes gently and consistently for about a minute. (disclaimer: it's not actually hypnosis but I don't know what it's called) Eventually you'll see the eyes glaze over and the lobster goes into an almost comatose state where it lets all the air out of its shell and completely relaxes - to the point that you can balance it vertically on its claws and it just stays there. Not only is this a more humane method of cooking live seafood (if you care about that sort of thing), but it also ensures the lobster doesn't tense up for those last few seconds of its life, guaranteeing easy removal of the meat from the shell, and some of THE finest and most tender lobster meat you can imagine. Of course, the method explained in the video is also quick and painless for the lobster. I've seen that method performed many times. I'm just not accustomed to killing a lobster before cooking it.

Julia, I do it practically the same way, Thanks for sharing. My only difference is I add a few ribs of celery and some scallions on top of the kielbasa, build and cook the same way and time (sometimes a couple more minutes) with adding a 1/2 to cup white wine 7 - 8 minutes in. The additional infused flavor in good and broth is awesome. Dry vermouth works well also.

All proper but Lobsters do require prior cracking and being shelled - e.g. - the claws & knuckles + also the tails! Inevitable that someone might ultimately feel cheated because of only two lobsters fitting inside the hot cauldron - if one were to be feeding a sizable party the portion of lobster might produce a row lol. Good Baguette for all the drippings would be a reasonable demand (my own) 😂

I love kielbasa, but the lobster and clams will pick up the kielbasa seasonings, not the other way around. The kielbasa has a skin and is dense, nothing will really penetrate that. I'd leave it out if you don't like it. A traditional NE clambake rarely has any type of sausage, anyway. That's more in the South.

Here on the West Coast with our clam et al bakes, we use a large pressure cooker. Using cut sausage, clams, oysters, crab segments, (no mussels !), small quartered potatoes, broken cobs of corn, celery segments, (some sliced carrots), whole medium onions, (maybe a few cloves of whole garlic), and slabs of butter. Layered and "mixed all together" from bottom to 1/2 way, potatoes, corn cobs, celery, (carrots), onion, (garlic), then the top 1/2 with "mixed" corn cobs, clams, oysters, crab segments, and sausage. Atop all of this are the many slabs of salted sweet cream butter. The butter oils/fats, sausage meat juice oils/fats, and shellfish juices drip down and cover all the rest of the cooker ingredients - and steam circulate back up within the pressure cooker. In the end, pour out into tureen bowls with juices, oils, and butters in the dish and all over the ingredients. Fresh bread also provided for holding hot corn cobs, and having hot buttered bread as well. No boiling - only steaming - saving all calories and nutrition - and less time (~20-30 minutes). Sliced lemon wedges and red cocktail sauce on the side. Yum !

We on the East, Baltimore City, do this with Maryland Blue crabs instead of the lobster. We add Old Bay (a must in every Maryland Kitchen) and mainly potatoes, corn, kielbasa, lemon, and of course crab, people boil or steam everything in a big crab pot. We serve on newspaper with mallets, cider vinegar, and sometimes butter (we are not too fancy). Also pitchers of beer.
