  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, or preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine shrimp, baby potatoes, corn, and sausage. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Old Bay, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Cut 4 large sheets of aluminum foil. Divide the mixture evenly among each piece. Place small pieces of butter on top of each.
  4. Fold the foil into packets, sealing the edges tightly to lock in steam and flavor.
  5. Grill or bake for 15–20 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the shrimp are pink and fully cooked.
  6. Carefully open each foil pack (watch for steam!), garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges for extra zest.
