re: Whats your tried and true crawfish boil method?

Why soak? It’s not they will absorb anymore seasoned water than while being boiled.

That’s retarded, son.

This is the method that I do now after trying all kind of different way to cool down the water. I used ice, frozen gallons of water, etc. I haven't tried the Boil Boss, but I don't really like how it works. Plus, the crawfish seems to be more cleaner. One thing that someone recommend is add a couple cup of salt to the plain water pot. This supposedly help the tails to absorb more seasonings during the soaking phase. I will try this method. I also read that some steam the crawfish with the 1st pot and then soak with the second pot.

Everything you said here is too exotic and too much extra work/cleaning or me. If you have multiple sacks, add water when needed and more liquid than shake because the salt stays in the pot. Don’t make an unnecessary mudhole in the yard with some pot cooling gimmick. Just do what crawking posted and stay golden pony boy. Down to the newspaper on table instead of ice chests and individual platters. Why clean all that shite up? Clean some tables and pots and you’re done rather than people roaming around randomly dropping shells outside the eating area.

Clean crawfish is probably the most important so get them clean before they hit the pot. Test frequently as they soak to get them how you want. Adjust seasoning according next boil.
