Add the water, salt, crab boil seasoning bag, lemon quarters, and onion quarters to a very large pot. Bring the pot to a boil. Add the corn and potatoes into the pot carefully (maybe even wear long sleeves to avoid burns). Return pot to boil. This takes 5-10 minutes.

Continue to boil about 8-12 minutes or until the potatoes are almost fork-tender. Meanwhile, prep butter and sausage as below.

Add green beans. Continue to boil until all veggies are tender. Drain the pot carefully into a large colander.

Add the veggies to your plate along with cooked meat. Place melted butter in a sauce cup for dipping. Dig in!

Butter prep: Melt butter. If desired, add lemon juice or your favorite seasonings to melted butter. Set aside for dipping.

Sausage prep: Cut sausage links lengthwise, then into thirds or quarters. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add sausage and sauté until browned.
