Take boiling water, and we usually season it with a good bit of Zataran's Crab Boil, which is lovingly spicy and tasty. Throw in some red potatoes, and let it boil for a while because potatoes take forever to soften. Then, throw in corn on the cob broken in half and, finally, shrimp (preferably in the shell). When the shrimp turn pink, you know they're finished. That's about it. Usually people are drunk while doing this, so I don't really know the exact times.

The recipe should be in a Cajun cookbood. Plus, you'll need to make cocktail sauce to dip them in....mmmmmmm.
