LA Crawfish Tyme (Lafayette) seasoning. Dust /no dust?

A few weeks ago, the wife and I had there boiled crawfish and they were really good. So I purchased their seasoning pack and plan to use it for the first time this weekend instead of my normal seasoning. Being a Thibodaux coonass, I’ve never dusted my crawfish. So my question is, has anyone here used there seasoning using just the boil method (entire pack in the water)? The instructions call for half in the water and other half for dusting. Since I don’t want to f-up a sack of crawfish, I’m a lil nervous about dusting.

Just boil using your tried-and-true method. Pre-measure your water level with a basket of live crawfish. Make a "witness mark" and that will be your fill line. Most restaurants "dust" because they're pushing a large volume of crawfish and don't have the time to soak for 30+ minutes.

Dusting is lazy.
All it does it get your fingers hot

If you want to boil like a pro, you don't put any seasoning in the water. Just pour the dry seasoning in a bucket and dip your hands in it before eating each crawfish.

Everyone shits on Lafayette for their bad food scene, and it’s mostly underserved
But the hate they get for this crawfish dusting abomination is very very well-deserved

There is no need for dusting, a lot of liquid, and just wait and soak in cooler water. Or, just let em boil a little less and soak a long time with lid off. I really dont know how that in La we havent pretty much established this. I have had some crawfish that were dusted, that were good, but there is not a reason to do it.

I’m fine with dusting although I don’t do it myself.
And sometimes when I’m eating them like that, I’m like “this is pretty damn good” except not juicy heads at all.

Y’all realize dusting comes out just about the same as soaking right? If done correctly.
