Fish Boil - A fish boil involves fish and potatoes, seasoned with salt, boiling in a large kettle over an open fire. Just before serving time, the boilmaster douses the fire with kerosene, causing flames to shoot up and the kettle to boil over. The boil over not only entertains tourists, it causes oil released from the fish to boil out of the pot. A fish boil is a popular activity in Door County and cities along Lake Michigan.  Click on the picture above see an actual fish boil!
