Slow Cooker Cajun Shrimp Boil

Slow cooker meals are the best. Especially for busy weeknights or times that you know you’re not going to have enough time to cook. Crock-Pots allow you to put all of your ingredients into it and have everything perfectly cooked by the time you get home or are ready to eat hours later.

One meal we love here in Texas is crawfish boils. Fresh crawfish is cooked in cajun seasoning along with potatoes, corn, and sausage and is seriously delicious.

Since it’s Summer currently and definitely not crawfish season, I decided to mix things up and do a shrimp boil instead. But not just any shrimp boil – I’m doing a one pot shrimp boil meal. In fact, it’s even easier than that because it’s a slow cooker recipe! It’s going to be the perfect meal to make any weeknight or busy day!

So let the Crock-Pot do the work for you and make this recipe for a Slow Cooker Shrimp Boil with corn, potatoes, and sausage.
