I'm guessing they boiled close to 1,500 lbs of crawfish. Dusting and serving on paper trays was the only logical choice given that situation.


Why? I get why restaurants do it because they have to turn around orders fast. But this is nothing like that. This is a crawfish boil where you are boiling huge batches at one time. What is wrong with letting all the crawfish soak a while after boiling? Why is dusting needed and soaking "illogical" as you say, if you are just boiling more crawfish at one time? This only makes sense if their boiling rig can't do a ton at one time and are having to do 8-10 batches of crawfish vs 2 or 3.

Part of it is that and part is it is easy to boil for the mild customer and dust according to medium or hot orders, although the latter is still about a quick turnaround.

Unless the are using a caterer who does this by default as well.


While I have no real issues with the dusting, I do prefer the more traditional method. And for people who say "real Cajuns" don't do that, that's just nonsense. I have seen my 85-year-old father-in-law do it, though it is not what he usually does, and the man has English as a second language.
