My best memory of gumbo is the one grandmother made with shrimp, sausage, crab, & crawfish.
Thanks. Guess I’ve been missing out all these years of my life. I honestly can’t remember seeing any crawfish in gumbo that I’ve been served. Probably because I’ve either eaten chicken and sausage gumbo or seafood gumbo. I’ve had fish in my gumbo which sort of made me think it was like adding crab far as texture is concerned.

Next time you make seafood gumbo, get some bay scallops, which are the smaller of the two with sea scallops being the big ones.
Put them in just like you would shrimp or oysters near the end. They add a nice texture to the gumbo and are like the "eye" of the oyster where they attach to the shells.

It might be because crawfish season doesn't coincide with cold weather season when most people make gumbo.
Anytime there was a boil (crab, crawfish, shrimp) you peeled even after your were full from eating.
Everything was packaged and frozen or divided amongst the participants.
The host always way over-bought crawfish so all attendees could take some home.
That's just the way our family did things.
