Steps:
- Fill a large pot with four quarts of water along with 1/2 cup of salt and bring to a boil over high heat on your stovetop.
- Add the potatoes and onion, along with seafood boil seasoning wrapped in cheesecloth or placed in a tea diffuser, if desired. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, approximately 20-30 minutes.
- When the potatoes are soft, add the fish and the remaining 1/2 cup of salt. Boil for 3-5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
- When the fish is done, drain the water in a colander and return fish, onion, and potatoes to the pot. Discard the seasoning.
- Add butter to the pot and gently stir to evenly coat everything.
- Serve on plates with sliced lemon. (Alternatively, lemon juice can be squeezed into the pot when the butter is added)

DOOR COUNTY FISH BOIL (SORT OF.....)
If you have never experienced an outdoor Door County Fish Boil, you have NO idea what you're missing!!! Door County is the WI penisula, north of Green Bay. It's a VERY popular tourist destination & a fish boil is an absolute must before you leave!!! Several restaurants, along with periodic civic groups, in the county serve it using delicious fresh fish from the waters of Lake Superior or Lake Michigan & it usually consists of Whitefish or Lake Trout. Many folks that don't like fish, LOVE the Door County Fish Boils. This recipe is for making it on the indoor stove instead of an outdoor fire...MUCH safer this way. NOTES:You will need a large kettle with a cover & a wire-type basket for this. FRESH fish is preferred, but frozen fish that has been thawed, can be used. If using Whitefish, be sure all scales are removed.

Add fish and the other 1/4 lb. of salt and boil for 10 minutes, then drain in a colander. For each plate, place two pieces of fish, two potatoes and two onions. Then drizzle the fish, potatoes and onions with 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter (I use unsalted). Serve with a wedge of lemon, coleslaw and a piece of Door County cherry pie for dessert.

- Scrub 1 1/2 pounds medium red potatoes and peel 8 small onions, leaving the stem ends intact. In a large stockpot, combine the potatoes and onions and add about 2 quarts of water, enough to cover the vegetables by 2 inches. Stir in 2 tablespoons kosher salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Partially cover the pot and cook until the potatoes are almost tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes.
- Arrange four 1/2-pound whitefish steaks in a single layer on top of the vegetables; don't worry if they aren't covered with water. Partially cover the pot again, lower the heat to moderate and cook until the whitefish flakes easily when tested with a fork, about 10 minutes longer.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the whitefish to a large, warm platter. Spoon the potatoes and onions around the fish. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley and a generous amount of freshly ground pepper. Serve the fish and vegetables with melted unsalted butter and lemon wedges alongside.
