Seafood boils are popular social events in the south, particularly Louisiana, Georgia, and South Carolina. Similar seafood-centric events can be found along the Chesapeake Bay and in New England but they’re not quite as prevalent in New Jersey. That doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy the fun or the flavor! The Garden State is home to several seafood boil restaurants, and this newer eatery even allows you to build your own boil.
