Low Country Shrimp and Sausage Burgers
x
Print Options
Description
Growing up in the coastal South, most of our gatherings revolved around low country boils. Friends and family would come together in the back yard and feast on piles of freshly boiled shrimp, smoked sausage, corn, potatoes, coleslaw and hushpuppies. These are classic Southern flavors that blend quite well in a hand-held sandwich. Just like a true low country boil, these burgers can be a bit messy, so grab plenty of napkins!
Ingredients
- FOR SLAW
- ½ cups Mayonnaise
- ¼ cups Stone Ground Mustard
- 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
- ½ teaspoons Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 2 whole Green Onions, Thinly Sliced
- 2 whole Jalapeno Peppers, Minced
- 15 ounces, fluid Kernel Corn (one Can)
- 4 cups Shredded Slaw Mix
- FOR THE BURGERS:
- 1-½ cup Peeled And De-veined Shrimp, Roughly Chopped
- 1 pound Fresh Ground Country Pork Sausage
- 1 whole Egg, Lightly Beaten
- 4 teaspoons Seafood Seasoning, Preferably Old Bay
- 2 Tablespoons Corn Meal
- 6 loaves Ciabatta, Sandwich Size
- 1-½ stick Softened, Unsalted Butter
Preparation
Preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat.
FOR SLAW
To make slaw, whisk mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, sugar and pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in green onions, jalapeno peppers and corn. Toss in slaw mix to coat. Cover and chill while you make burgers.
FOR BURGERS
To make burgers, in a medium bowl, lightly mix shrimp, sausage, egg, seafood seasoning and corn meal until well combined. Form into 6 patties. Set aside at room temperature.
Split ciabatta rolls in half, and spread one tablespoon of softened butter on each half.
Brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Place burgers on rack, cover and grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, until sausage is cooked through. Meanwhile, grill buttered rolls, cut side down, until golden and toasted.
To assemble burgers, place patties on bottom buns, top with slaw, and cover with top buns.
Makes 6 burgers

Oh, take me back to Charleston, please. I want to make this so badly although I don’t have a grill at the moment. Mmm…must bookmark for the future.

Thanks, Ree! What an honor to have you comment on my recipe. Low Country flavors are very prevalent here in the South, and I have no doubt you’d find them in Hilton Head!

Delicious! This reminds me of Hilton Head, South Carolina for some reason.
