How much seasoning and water do you think? 1/2 cup per gallon of water?

I like my boil water to be highly seasoned to where if I were to take a spoon and sip some of the water out of it, it will almost take my breath away. But that's just me.

I just fill up the water, add seasoning until the color looks about right, then taste and adjust as needed. 1/2 per gallon sounds like a good start. Just taste it like you would a crawfish boil.

They cook super fast so be ready to pull them. I usually blanch them so I’ll have a ice bath waiting to stop the cooking.
