    Prepare the Pot

    In a large pot, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil. Add salt and Old Bay Seasoning.

    Add the halved potatoes to the boiling water and cook for about 10 minutes, or until they start to soften.

    While the shrimp is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
