Getting a new pot for Christmas, what size is best for a sack of crawfish and the fixins?

80 qt, 100 qt, 120 qt?

depends upon how many people you plan to feed on a regular basis. Personally, I have an 80 and it is big enough for me. The 100 and a 120 are two sack at a time pots.

They got a 160 at Costco right now in Houston. Think I could boil a horse in that thing

idk about the 100


i think 100 qt is perfect for a whole sack and veggies


putting 2 whole sacks in there would get really tight

80 is tight for a 40 pound bag of crawfish. Go with at least the 100 qt.

These are worth it IMO. If I had the coin, I would buy one. Everyone I know who has one raves about it.

To the OP: 60 qt can do a sack and no veggies, 80 qt can do a sack + most any fixins you would want. 100 qt can do 1.5 sacks + fixins. 120 qt can do 2 sacks and fixins.
