Dipping Crawfish Tails in a Sauce before eating?

It's illegal in 3 parishes.

I take them right out of the tail with my mouth, so no dip for me.

I agree with you.

Have some friends that do a boil every year that we go to. They LOVE the drip and have huge vats of it and drag each and every tail through these huge vats of dip. It really grosses me out bigly.

Its 50/50 for me, depending on my mood.

If Im boiling for a party, I always make a spicy dipping sauce of ketchup mayo Tabasco pepper and a ton of horseradish. Add a splash or two of Worstershire and squeeze of lemon. People seem to love it.

Dipping in sauce slows down the process. I ain't got time to dip in no sauce if I'm trying to out eat my brothers...

I eat them straight from tail to mouth so it would be an extra step to dip. I don’t hate on those who do though.

Never seen this so called dip before.

This question always brings out the crawfish snobs. Dip is very common in Terrebonne Parish. Really big tails I tend to eat without dip, but I like to dip the smaller ones and pile a few up on a saltine cracker.

I disagree with the “if you have to dip them, they’re not cooked right” position. The dip only enhances the flavor.

As long as you don’t boil sausage with crawfish I’m good. Who the frick boils sausage? I don’t know where this came from, but damn near every boil I go to now has an oily ring around the top of the pot...I know I’m crawfish boiled with sausage. fricking savages.

I dip on occasions just to change up the flavor profile. I also like a nice dip for the potatoes and other veggies/sausage.
