Well I usually boil a full sack in a full pot or half sack in a small pot. Its usually enough to bring the water temp down.

Me too, but I got thrown off when I was using a buddy's much more powerful burner and the water was rolling before they were floating.

I put some in an ice chest while they were still just warm recently and they turned to mush.


I never put hot seafood in any kind of container. They will continue to cook and, like you said, go to mush.

I always spread them out on a table to cool and if any are left, I'll pick them right away for the tail meat and fat to use in an etouffe or like I did earlier this spring, made 3 gallons of crawfish bisque with 180 stuffed heads. I got a 35 lb. sack and it was only the wife and I. We ate what we wanted and cleaned the rest.

It’s not bad if you leave it open.

I pour them on the table in batches so they don't cool down too fast.

Use 2 of these per pot.

And your rear end will be burning before you eat a dozen of them.

Season the water properly and soak till they sink.
