I'm guessing they boiled close to 1,500 lbs of crawfish. Dusting and serving on paper trays was the only logical choice given that situation.
Why? I get why restaurants do it because they have to turn around orders fast. But this is nothing like that. This is a crawfish boil where you are boiling huge batches at one time. What is wrong with letting all the crawfish soak a while after boiling? Why is dusting needed and soaking "illogical" as you say, if you are just boiling more crawfish at one time? This only makes sense if their boiling rig can't do a ton at one time and are having to do 8-10 batches of crawfish vs 2 or 3.

I will never understand the outrage people get when they see others prepare food differently.
It's food, man. Are you eating it? Why do you care?

Let me tell ya I am so outraged over this! I just came back inside from shaking my fist at the sky over it. It’s a joke. Not a dick. Don’t take it so hard

It's because cajuns take a lot of pride in their cooking and when they see something like crawfish dusting, tomatoes in gumbo, jambalaya "sauce", etc. being presented as "cajun", it touches a nerve. Especially when non-cajuns try food prepared in the manners listed above and are disappointed and write-off cajun food as over-hyped.
My neighbor from TX HATED crawfish for years, until he actually tried some that were properly boiled with me. Now he's at every crawfish boil and eats more than most people.

a bit of irony in that statement, Cajun food was "invented" as a means of survival, finding a way to make a little food go a long way, not some culinary vision, there were no recipes per se, I love me some Cajun food but it's not rocket surgery

I care because I think it's a disgrace to allow ULL to call themselves UL when there's ULM. If you want to be UL, have the state change the names. It's pathetic to say "UL" when they are not "UL".
How does this affect you in any way?

The best thing for Louisiana would be for Tech and ULL to both thrive and stop feeding money to the other schools that are even worse than them. Louisiana needs at least 1 more top tier public university. Tech or ULL needs to step up, but that will never happen as long as you have public money going to:
ULM
Southeastern
Nicholls
McNeese
Grambling
Southern
Nothwestern
UNO
LSU Alexandria
LSU Eunice
LSU Shreveport
I agree, but it'll probably never happen.

Nobody is saying that it is. I don't understand what is ironic in taking pride in a style of cooking that may not be super difficult. Does it not make sense to take pride in cooking something simple, yet delicious?

because there's a shitload of different ways to cook the same food, most of them satisfactorily

this is a good explanation though.

The irony is that a bunch of people who have probably never stepped foot in a crawfish field are in this thread judging how people from Acadiana are cooking crawfish

that is a good point though, if they don't know how to bawl 'em, who does?

I don't see how that is relevant to my question, and I see where you are going with this, so we are just going to have to agree to disagree.
