Backyard Clambake

A slam-dunk dinner for a crowd. You can easily add to this recipe for more people. Use a large, deep roasting pan so that the seafood fits in layers. If your potatoes are big then cut into 1-inch (2.5-cm) chunks so that they cook at the same time as the seafood. We used lobster tails for ease of preparation but you could include whole lobsters if you wished. Add plenty of lemon wedges to the platter for people to help themselves.
