Disagree with adding ice 100%

I'll stir some to release heat but throwing a 5-7 pound bag of ice definitely helps in dropping those top crawfish without stirring the entire time.

I'm not filling the entire 120 quart pot with water, 40 quarts (1/3) and adding a bag of ice to the top will definitely cool off the top layer of the water. That's what i want to drop those crawfish quickly without stirring a bunch.

It does NOTHING to dilute your seasoning that you can taste.

It does nothing to the other 80% of the crawfish though.

You are on the low side of water though it seems.

I dunno. Maybe maybe not.

Like I said, they're hard to screw up so staying somewhere around a few key things and I think they will be good.

You're talking about adding 3-3.5 more quarts of water with that 5-7lbs of ice. 10% more water is a good bit.
