80 qt crawfish pot

Have an old 88qt I bought from Service Merchadise back in the early '80s. Handles 32# sacks easy. Boiled many batches of crawfish, crabs, shrimp though the years. Still serves we well. Less liquid - less time to come to temperature.
When I built my house I had a hot water faucet run to the outside. I start with hot water, doesn't take long to boil.

My neighbor has a 60 quart that he can boil a whole sack in.

I have an 80, works fine for a sack at a time.

I have an 80 qt. It's perfect for a sack plus whatever you want to add. (potatoes, corn, mushrooms, etc.)

80 qt Cajun Rocket Pot is awesome

I have an 80 qt pot and I wish I had a 100 or 120. There's enough room for a whole sack and a little more, but I run out of space when I start adding all the various veggies and ice after the boil.

I add a lot more veggies than your standard boil

Same here. I actually have a Seperate "veggie pot."

I've been using 120's for so long I guess I was concerned about this 80 qt. Thanks for the advice.

42# in a single sack are tiny crawfish. highest ill buy is 35. i like 28-32# sacks.

I bet most people don't understand the correlation between size and sack weight. no pun.

28 is getting big. The bigger the crawfish are thee less meat since the heads take up more room.
