Ingredients

6 servings

3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, (unpeeled and cut into ¾-inch chunks)
2 small yellow onions, (each cut into 6 wedges)
18 ounces smoked sausage, (cut into 1-inch rounds)
3 ears fresh corn, (husked and broken into halves)
3 pounds fresh or thawed frozen shrimp, (unpeeled)
cajun seasoning
garlic powder
One 12-ounce bottle of beer ((or 1½ cups chicken broth or water))
large-sized heavy duty aluminum foil

Steps

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Cut the heavy-duty foil into six 20-inch lengths. Make 6 foil packets. Be sure to make the packets big enough to encompass all of the ingredients, about 5x7-inches on the bottom, with enough extra foil at the top to fold over a few times.
Divide the ingredients onto each foil sheet in this order: potatoes, onions, sausage, corn and shrimp. Between the layers, lightly sprinkle Cajun seasoning and a bit of garlic powder. Cup the sides of the foil so that the liquid will not escape and add ¼ cup of the beer to each packet. Accordion fold the excess foil at the top, then fold in the sides to prevent leakage.
Set the packets on a sheet pan, and then transfer them onto your pre-heated grill. Cook for 13 to 15 minutes. (Alternately, you can bake them in the oven for 20 minutes at 375°F).
Serve the packets on plates. Be careful when opening the foil- the contents will be hot!
