It goes great with burgers, hot dogs, grilled chicken or pulled pork.

This recipe for southern potato salad is based on Frogmore Stew.

What Is Frogmore Stew?

Also called Lowcountry Boil, it is a one pot meal full of shrimp, potatoes, corn on the cob and smoked sausage all boiled in a pot together with seasoning. It originated in the town of Frogmore, SC. Interesting fact, Frogmore is about 15 minutes from my house. The dish stems from the Gullah community on St Helena Island, which is where Frogmore is located. The Gullah are very unique in that they are an African American community that really has worked to preserve their West African heritage and they even speak their own dialect.

Ingredient Notes

  • Small Red Potatoes– If you use medium-sized potatoes, cut them in half before boiling to cook them faster. Yukon Gold Potatoes can be used instead or red potatoes.
  • Old Bay Seasoning– Added to the water to season the potatoes and to the potato salad itself.
  • Yellow Corn– fresh sweet corn is best, either yellow or white.
  • Shrimp– use fresh shrimp or fozen shrimp that have been thawed.
  • Smoked Sausage– I like kielbasa but andouille can be used.
  • Sweet Onion
  • Mayonnaise– use a good quality mayo like Helmann’s or Duke’s.
  • Creole Mustard– I like Zatarains. Yellow or Dijon mustard can be substituted.
  • Lemon Juice– adds a little acidity and brightens the other flavors.
  • Parsley– adds fresh herb flavor.

Make It Spicier

To make this potato salad spicier, add a pinch or two of cayenne pepper.

Frogmore Potato Salad Recipe Tip

Careful not to overcook the potatoes or they will get water-logged. Just cook them until you can pierce them easily with a knife or fork.

Storage

Leftovers will keep for 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
