What a fun experience!! We ordered The Salt Box and added crab legs and mussels enough for 5 people. We had to change our order delivery date which was not a problem at all. Dave's delivery service and prep directions were friendly and helpful. The boil ingredients were delicious. Although, my sister and I were the only ones present to enjoy the meal right out the pot as our neighbor got her portion later in the day and our other two guests were unable to make it, we definitely didn't have any complaints eating their portions too!! Thanks again!! read more

Firehouse Boil Delivery - Food Delivery Services Near Me

This is one of those food "experiences" that has been on my OBX list. There are two main companies in the OBX, one is more franchised and this one is small business owned. We opted to support small business. Online ordering was super easy. I had questions about cooking and add-ons and made a quick call to the helpful person who answered the phone. I even mentioned social media and he gave me a coupon code. Win win! Communication was great, I got a text when they were prepping my order and then when the delivery was in its way. Rachel was our delivery person. She was great. She stayed to give us some cooking advice and showed us how all the cooking equipment worked. Very simple. Everything was included from the tablecloths to sticks of butter and whole lemons. Word of advice: follow shrimp and crab claw instructions to the minute. I may have overdone my shrimp time but no one really complained. It's nice to enjoy a seafood spread in the comfort of your home. I recommend this vendor. read more

Thank you for the top notch service, amazing food and professionalism. Dave was wonderful to work with from quote to boiling on site to serving. He was extremely friendly and helpful when I needed to make adjustments and pivot. We ordered the Boilmaster Experience (The Estate) for a group gathering of 30 women and added crab legs and a few vegan servings. The food was fresh and delicious! read more

Ordered a boil delivery to our house in Corolla. Super easy- picked our time and it was delivered within 15 minutes of the time we chose. Gave us the pot and detailed instructions. Everything was so good, even our kids ate it (5 and 8). Came with table cloth and paper for easy clean up. we set it up on our screened in porch for a perfect beach dinner. Will do this again next summer for sure. Good way to beat the crowds of the restaurants! Just drop the pot off in the drop box the next morning! Lots of options for different size crowds read more

Firehouse Boil Delivery - The salt box plus snow crab cluster - Food Delivery Services Near Me

So easy to order online. Linda texted me early in the afternoon and had our boil delivered (personally) about hour earlier because they had a catering event at 6 when I had originally wanted it delivered. She was so nice and texted me when they were on their way and when they were close by. I appreciated that very much because we had been out shopping. When I met them outside of our timeshare, they came inside and told me how to so the boil. So easy and everything was included and even though there were written directions I didn't need to really read them instead I used it as a reference. Everything was delicious and there was so much. My parents and I had enough for 2 more meals. We got their classic that feeds 3-5 people. Came with sausage (polish apple, mild, chorizo), red potatoes, corn (which was so sweet), 1 big yellow onion, seasonings, 3 sticks of butter, and garlic. Delicious!!! And we did end up eating rice with it which made it even better. Lol. It came with cocktail sauce which was good, but with all the butter and seasonings, didn't really need it. And the cooking liquid, sooo yummy. I have to admit I kept some and froze it for another time (I like to put it on my rice...IYKYK). I was very pleased with the seafood boil, how easy it was and how everything was included. Customer service was excellent. Next time I may add some more seafood to the boil but for my first time I wanted to stay classic. read more

Absolutely cannot say enough good things about Dave and Jeff! I contacted Dave at the last minute and he was able to provide me a quote, and then adjust the quote when I made some changes. We had a brief phone conversation that left me confident I'd selected enough food for my group and that I'd chosen the right cooking option for us. We were renting a home in OBX and didn't want to go through the hassle of cooking it ourselves on our first night, but didn't feel a chef was needed, so the middle ground "they start it, we finish it" option was perfect! Jeff set everything up outside, was wonderful to talk to, and the food was delicious. We had more than enough to go around, and the experience kicked off a great week in the OBX. Oh, and Dave was AMAZING at accommodating my very last minute (as in 6 hours before our scheduled time) request to push our boil back one hour. We had a small billing hiccup and Dave was immediately responsive and apologetic about correcting his error. Seriously great guys running a neat business with delicious food! If we come back to OBX, we'd definitely hire them again! read more

Highly recommend read more

Firehouse Boil Delivery - Finished boil - Food Delivery Services Near Me

First off everything about this place is a breeze (other than you have to cook yourself). The guys run the phone lines quickly, everything is neatly packaged, drop off in a big fun truck, easy disposal, the works. Everything extremely extremely fresh, including the shrimp and lobster tails (good size too). The guys on here have 5 star reviews so I feel comfortable giving a 4 as it shouldn't hurt them too much. I will switch this to a 5-star review if/when they are ever at risk of lower rankings because this deserves a 4.5 star review. My "negatives" are as follows: 1. Spoken directions differed from written directions. We tended to follow the spoken directions, but it did lead to some confusion (we are idiots). 2. Fellas, don't be afraid of the spice, or offer people a "full spice" option. Whether it was too much water in the pot (a written v. spoken instruction issue), or there was just not enough spice, we could've used a lot more spice in our boil. When ladling food out, it looked as though no spice had seeped into anything. Let's just say that as four white folk originating from the Northeast, the food looked liked we had made it. I'd recommend the guys add spice levels as an option, or, if you dear reader see this, be prepared with some old bay and Tony C's of your own. This being said, the broth from the boil, once added to quite a bit of hotsauce, did make for a decent dipper. Either way, wouldn't hesitate to order again. EDIT: Just noticed that Firehouse Boil has 30+ reviews which all appear to be 5-star and are being blocked by YELP. That is BS, so I'm changing my review to a 5-star until this company's "blocked" reviews are restored. Pros/cons above still stand, but this is not a place trying to trick folks. read more

Amazing DIY seafood boil! We tried Firehouse for the first time last night and had an awesome experience. Placed our order around noon same day and they delivered it at our requested time. Comes with darn near everything you need; Pot, lid, spider strainer, plastic table cloth and a roll of paper for the table, and all the butter and seasoning you need. As for the boil ingredients we opted for the Salt box which says it feed 3-5, we added some crab knuckles and spicy sausage and it feed the 5 of us with just a little left over. Instructions say to cover with water but we did half water half beer/ white wine for a little extra flavor. Following their recommendations on cooking everything came out great! Dropping off the equipment next day was easy and convenient. Will definitely be doing this again on our annual OBX trip. read more

Great food and service. Great value for quality and quantity of fresh seafood and veggies you get.

Our studio boil was delivered right on time with clear instructions on how to cook it. Very easy to follow. It was delicious!

To me the appeal of a cook-it-yourself boil delivery is everything is assembled and ready to go, throw it on the stove and you're set. Firehouse delivers a dirty, smelly pot and a bag of groceries, so you need time and space for prep and cooking things separately. Our pot wasn't large enough for our boil and everything cooked unevenly as a result. Bizarrely, the seafood and meat was all frozen and the mussels were imported, precooked trash. Shockingly poor experience for the high price, can't understand all the other positive reviews of this place. read more

This was our second summer enjoying Firehouse Boil and it is just amazing- great service, generous portions, quality ingredients and lots of perks such as paper products and sturdy equipment to make the meal special. Jeffrey even supplied us with a splitter to allow for grilling the sausages while preparing the boil grill-side. Such a personal touch! Oh, and we ordered late on a holiday weekend and, yup- they not only delivered but were festive and fun. You can't go wrong with Firehouse! Just wonderful! read more

Ordering from Firehouse was the best decision we made on our OBX vacation! The food was fresh, easy to cook and delicious, and the cooking pot provided was of extremely high quality. With so many restaurants simply not providing delivery or pickup right now, the prompt delivery was greatly appreciated by this hungry family. Our party of 15 was very impressed and will definitely order from Firehouse Boil on our next trip to the Outer Banks! read more

Delicious shrimp boil. The corn and sausage especially were really fresh. Old Bay seasoning and lemon added just the right amount of flavor.

Wow this seafood boil is DELICIOUS! My Dad lives in OBX so I've tried most of the seafood boils in the area and this one is the best. Fresh seafood, delicious seasoning, and the best sausage I've ever had. I will absolutely be a repeat customer! read more
