When I was in elementary school in the ’50s, we had the duck-and-cover drills and also were given metal dog tags to wear. I still have mine. It has my name, address, date of birth, and religion stamped into it. My friends and I rubbed crayon on them to give the stamped lettering some pizzazz. I wore mine on a chain along with my skate key.
My husband used to dump it out onto freezer paper on the table and set out some kind of plates. It’s been decades since then — might have been the sturdy liquid-proof paper plates. He loved the reactions from the people who’d never seen that done before — and the guests loved the food!
Frogmore Stew is the name I know it by. All the same ingredients as in the lowcountry boil recipe mentioned above. Delicious and fun to present and to eat!
