Can someone please explain how this actually seasons the crawfish tails?


I have not a clue. The vinegar from that mustard and that lemon pepper did bring a slightly different taste to them. I will say they peeled very easily for pond crawfish which if I were to guess the vinegar helped with that. That extra lemon pepper did amp up the citrus taste a tad more without an overpowering citrus taste. These crawfish would have been delicious without doing what I described in my original post. I kind of threw this out here to the group to see if anyone besides me has had them prepared this way. As I stated above I was mortified and was fully expecting a nasty tasting mess to come out of that ice chest. Not going to lie though they were very tasty.

I think it’s a Mississippi thing. At least, the only person I know who does it that way is a pinecone kicker

not terrible but not necessarily an improvement

Why would vinegar make them “peel better”? And peel better than what? Over this years on this board I’ve read that butter, olive oil, lemons, OJ concentrate, and now vinegar makes crawfish peel better. It all sounds made up. Cooking crawfish the right amount of time makes them peel fine. That seems obvious to me.
