re: Can y’all post your crawfish boil recipes???

Big Zatarans Seasoning Jar

1 lb swamp fire seasoning

16 oz. Liquid Crab Boil

sack of little red potatoes

bag of frozen corn

7.5 oz jar of Cayenne

6 lemons

6 oranges

6 small white onions cut in half

3 lbs smoked sausage

jar bay leafs

7 oz jars of garlic powder

2 stalks of celery

hot sauce bottle

whole garlic

mushrooms

Brussel sprouts

- when water starts to boil add all seasonings, celery, onions, garlic, and citrus

- boil for ten minutes

- add potatoes let boil for ten minutes

- after ten mins, add mushrooms, brussel sprouts, sausage and let boil 5 minutes and then add crawfish

- when water starts to boil again let crawfish boil 2 minutes

- turn off fire, add frozen corn Leave off lid. Spray water on outside of pot to cool down water to 150° at least

- let soak 20 -30 mins

I usually put the things that need to boil at the same time in boil bags also to be able to separate and put in an ice chest to pick out what you want.

Question, do you guys dump potatoes, sausage, vegetables out the basket after they have boiled before you boil the crawfish ? or do you leave them in with the crawfish and also let them soak the whole time?

I was wondering if having the fixins' in the whole time would take a fair amount of the seasoning away that are meant for the crawfish. Would this make sense and if you dump them before you add the crawfish, do they soak up enough seasoning during this boil time ?

since I put in a boil bag maybe the answer is just to let soak for about 5 minutes with crawfish then pull and let the crawfish sit for the whole soak by themselves

Any suggestions appreciated.
