    Man, I'm going to have to try that. Haven't boiled any yet, probably will do some the weekend after the Super Bowl. No doubt, spillway crawfish are the best but later in the season the crawfish from the rice fields are also pretty nice.

    Just cut 'em half and toss 'em the pot along with your taters, lemons and corn. About 6-8 should work nicely. You won't be disappointed.:thumb:

    you guys make me want to vomit. I hope you choke on a tail... j/k. I think i only have 2 lbs of catahoula crawfish tails left in my freezer to make either some gumbo or etouffe. I dont even want to know what it would cost per pound to get live crawfish sent here. I guess i will have to stick to my oysters that are abundant here and do oyster roasts. You can get a bushel of single selects for about $25 here right now.

    Yeah, crabs are pretty easy to come by these days. I might have to pick some up for the weekend. Of course, Im gonna grab a hundred pounds of crawfish too.

    $195 for 60 pounds shipped to your airport. Call you friends, break out the boiling rig. I bet Okie is thinking about it!

    That is good and also lemon juice and onion halves....It's amazing how good the onions are when they soak up that seasoning- doesn't taste like you'd expect.

    I find the biggest mistake people make is not enough NaCl. I put 3 lbs. in before the first batch.
