re: Crawfish: Boiled to Live conversion

If I'm boiling for a large group that includes children, heavy eaters, and light eaters, I usually go 3-5 lbs per person on average.

If it's a small group of heavy eaters I usually go 5-7 lbs per person on average.

This is live lbs. I wouldn't have a clue what they weigh boiled. Boiled weight doesn't tell you anything. Depending on how how you cook them (some people do more steaming than boiling) or how long you soak them, it will impact the weight different.
