How many lbs of crawfish do you think they were boiling for that event? It's not feasible to soak when you are boiling at that quantity.

Huh? That's like saying it's not feasible to smoke briskets when you have to cook a lot, so oven baked briskets are just fine.

When I was at LSU one of the casinos used to boil crawfish…they’d hire a company with a giant trailer that had two giant pots and crane that would move the giant basket from the boil pot to the soak pot and steady throw out huge amounts of soaked crawfish. Like 500 pounds at a time. That was 25 yrs ago.

As a Cajuns fan and a FDB visitor, I don't condone dusting, but I would still eat free dusted crawfish.

I'm not a "duster" either, but I can understand why large catering companies would do it to push product out faster.

How the hell is seasoning the outside of a shell that is getting thrown away get a good product out faster?

It is most definitely ULL

How or why do you think that you know more about boiling large quantities of crawfish than a crawfish caterer?

Wut? I've never had dusted crawfish at any major event where crawfish were served. Jazz Fests for example

Can't see the cooking setup from the video, but if you're cooking for hundreds of people and just have a few burners/pots and ice chests, you can't afford to tie up one of your pots for 20-30 minutes to soak (if everyone is eating at the same 1-2 hour period).
So season your water, boil, dump in the dusting trough, and put in ice chest.
I've never boiled for more than like 12 people, so I don't know shite.

If you're trying to get them out as quick as possible it makes sense to have each "batch" take a least time as possible, right?
At an event like Jazz fest you probably aren't attempting to make sure all of the batches are done as quickly as possible (people are eating all day, not only during a certain time).

I feel like you're reaching for an excuse to justify dusting
Posted on 5/4/23 at 11:27 am to LNCHBOX
Not surprising on commercial operations, save money on supplies, equipment, and time.

Why do you think catering companies do it? For fun?
I don't do it, but I get why someone would if they are attempting to pump out as much product as fast as possible.

Just because someone does something one way doesn't mean it's necessary or the best. Plenty of places put tomatoes in gumbo

This would only be an acceptable explanation if dusting was the only method used by caterers. I know for a fact that's not the case, as I'm sure you do as well.

I know you like to argue, but are you saying that dusting is not the fastest method? It may not be the best method, but it's damn sure faster than soaking

It's Paul Allen; you have to ignore him. He's the board's biggest troll without any skill at actually being funny. He's TD's resident loser.
