His most popular video on the app currently has over 80 million views and it's a fool-proof guide to boiling shrimp "Louisiana style".
The pot includes a whole canister of Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning, two jars each of both garlic and onion powder, two lemon pepper seasoning bottles, a jar of Paprika, and other ingredients to make the mixture "extra spicy."
The young chef then added orange juice to the mix, which seemed to be an unlikely ingredient to viewers, but one he regularly uses in his viral recipes.
Through his business, the Boil Master, Chefjayvoo, creates all sorts of flavorful concoctions and shares how he makes each of them on his social media, and they're pretty easy to follow along and replicate.
