Can you freezecooked peeled crawfish tails

Yes. Put enough water to cover the tails in the zip lock bag and get the air out to stop freezer burn. My parents have been doing this for 30 plus years. Last two weeks of crawfishing goes to fill the freezer for the rest of the year.

Thanks!

I have a foodsaver so I'll go that route!

Yes you can. We get our crawfish peeled on halves and they ziplock/foodsave them. With the price this year we will be putting away A LOT

I froze some with the head fat .....is this going to be a problem?

It's not overnight, but that stuff WILL go rancid on you over the span of a few months. I'd use it as quickly as possible and have a plan B in place when you do decide to use it in case you find out all your crawfish have turned on you. Luckily, you can quickly sub in crab or shrimp for almost anything you'd use crawfish for, so your base won't be a waste. At worst, you'd probably just need a quick trip to the store for a pound or two of stew shrimp if you come up with rancid crawfish.

LSU Ag Center's take. Page 3, paragraph 3.

Froze it two weeks ago. Will try and use this Sunday
