Try Emily’s Restaurant and Tapas Bar for some of Beaufort’s tastiest shrimp ’n’ grits (with a little spice!).
Frogmore Stew: Also
known as Lowcountry Boil, this dish originated in the Beaufort area. Despite what many suspect, the stew doesn’t actually have frog in it. The name comes from the Frogmore area on St. Helena Island. Here, homemade chefs cook up fresh shrimp, corn-on-the-cob Bill Green and spicy sausage into a hearty stew. Try the tantalizing take on the stew at Steamer Oyster & Steakhouse on Lady’s Island, or check around local farmers markets for the “We Island” Gumbo n’ Tings stand to sample a local favorite.
She-Crab Soup: The
Lowcountry is credited with adding the “she” to traditional crab bisque by enhancing the color and flavor with crab eggs. Today, she-crab soup is a creamy cross between a bisque and a chowder, with hearty doses of sherry and blue crab. Sample the homemade soup (featured in Southern Living magazine) with “a little bite” at Barbara Jean’s Restaurant on Lady’s Island.
