Notes

Can You Make It Without Beer?
Instead of beer, you can use the same amount of chicken broth, chicken stock, or vegetable broth.
Tips For The Best Instant Pot Shrimp Boil!
  • Be sure to layer and cook the ingredients as listed in the recipe. This will ensure everything cooks evenly.
  • If your potatoes and shrimp are larger or smaller, the cooking time will be different. I recommend sticking with small potatoes and medium-sized shrimp for the best results!
  • If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container and they will keep in the refrigerator for a few days.
