You gotta think though. A 4.5 lb bag of zats mix probably has at least 3 lbs of salt in it. 2 of those round boxes are around 3 lbs of salt total. The salt content is the same, it's just changing where the salt comes from.

so if you were to try the OP's recipe
you going two round things of salt?

1 pound lol
At least that's what I use wth the zats
That's what I always thought but I had to ask. People freak out at 2-3 of the 1lb "boxes" but that's not a lot of salt in a 100qt pot considering everything you're putting in there. No, if you're adding in any kind of pre-mix shite you really should hold off on adding the salt. I use an old recipe from the Picayune that was passed down to me from my grandpa and dad. It's antiquated, sure, but it's a little throwback everytime we get the pot going.
100qt pot filled half way
3 - 1lb "boxes" of salt
12 - onions
12 - garlic (halved)
12-18 - lemons
1 bunch - celery
2 - 16oz zats liquid crab boil
6 - zats bags
1 cup - garlic powder
1-2 cups - cayenne
1/2 cup - italian seasoning

I tried the Chackbay yesterday. Did something similar to the OP's recipe. I cut my salt back to 1-1/2 and they were not salty. You might could go back to just one. That stuff doesn't have any salt that I could taste nor does the liquid crab boil.

That's similar to my FIL. No italian dressing though. He does put 1 or 2 big bottles of LA hot sauce in which would be like the vinegar in Italian dressing.
Edit: I can't read gud

SEASONING, buddy. Not dressing.

The first one. The cylinder not the box. Coonasses ain't going to call it a cylinder of salt, box sounds better.

For clarification, I'm not talking about the industrial sized boxes of salt. It's the 1lb canister/cylinder with the little pour spout on top

I'm all in with you on that one! (from previous thread).
I go with 4lbs of swamp dust and 1lb of louisiana for my dry seasoning. Add the bottle of liquid louisiana or zats, whatever i'm feeling at the time.
Posted on 3/6/17 at 5:14 pm to LSUvegasbombed
I have no idea TBH. If I was doing it, I'd probably put it in with the crawfish. Doesn't seem like it would hold up to that much boiling
If I'm wrong, someone correct me

I put it in at the beginning with onions and all, it's more for seasoning though, not to eat. If you wanna eat them, do them later.

You think that 5 lbs of stuff you put in there doesn't have 2-3 pounds of salt?
Posted on 3/6/17 at 8:14 pm to TH03
Yea it's for seasoning not to eat but ppl eat it. It soaks up the seasoning so it's pretty hot.
Pumped about trying a new seasoning out. My goal is to have friends say it's the best shite they ever had. Most boils are delicious but I want that compliment of these were the shite. I don't think anyone I know uses chackbay. Does any restaurants in BR use it?

I put the corn, sausage and mushrooms in when I kill the fire and they come out just fine
I use the frozen corn to cool the water even though I know it's not enough to do shite to the temp
