1. In a large bowl, mix the shrimp, sausage, and pork with 2 tbsp cajun seasoning. Set aside. 
2. Put oil in the bottom of your dutch oven, and place it over ~18 briquettes. Once the oil is brought to temperature, sautee the green pepper, onion, celery, and bacon. 
3. Once the onions are clear, add shrimp, sausage and pork mixture.
