| Boiling Crawfish Posted by Jamede4 I'm sure this thread comes up often, but here it goes: Everyone has their own special twist to boiling crawfish, what do you do different that makes your way the best? I've seen a few variances that I found to be interesting: 1) throw a stick of butter in there to make them peel easier allegedly. 2) punching holes in canned veggies and throwing the whole cans into the pot. I'm in no way a pro at this. My dad usually takes care of headmaster chef duties when my family boils crawfish so I'm coming to you guys for professional advice. I usually: 1) get the water boiling, put the seasoning in along with a few lemons. 2) put the crawfish in and let them boil for 3-5 minutes. 3) turn the burner off, add my extras, and let them sit for 20-30 minutes(or a beer or two Any variances/advice? I'm open to try anything different. Thanks guys This post was edited on 5/14 at 7:09 pm Reply Back to Top |

| Get one of these. All one piece. Cost $800.00 but that was 4 years ago. Brings water to a boil in 6 minutes. It's not mine, for a friend. ![]() Reply Back to Top |
