I'm probably the only one here who will agree with this statement.

I don't like crayfish. At all.

Think about it, you are suggesting a meal consisting of bread with a greasy semi-liquid bread topping. I’m no super fan of crawfish but you are a moron.

I figured as much. Even if you've passed through Louisiana once, most people don't call it crayfish. But plenty of people do in other parts of the country and world.

And I understand people not liking crawfish. They're spicy and I would guess an acquired taste. I've grown up in La. my whole life so have been eating them since I was a small kid.

That being said, OP is a homo and needs to be shamed off this site.

You can get all those other things all through the south. Crawfish is pretty centric to S. La, reaching into the diaspora in texas and other places.

It’s something kind of unique about it, something especially…US. That has a quality all its own.

It’s about the experience, the spectacle, the anticipation.

A crawfish boil isn’t a meal, it’s an Event .

It’s the kids playing with the live crawfish as you clean them. The sound of the burner, the smell as you prep the water, citrus and spice.

It’s horseshoes and washer toss being played in the background. It’s friends you haven’t seen in a while, baseball on the TV. It’s spring, it’s life, and it’s Lousiana.

And I’ll take a pile of mudbugs with good company over a fancy 3-star meal any day.

Yea, I grew up in MT, so pretty much live on beef and potatoes.

I do love a good crawfish boil though. The corn, potatoes, sausage, garlic, onion.

Look, a good pot roast with rice and gravy that you come home to after a hard day of work, that’s a nice meal.

But It’s about the product there, not the process.

A crawfish boil is about the sum total of all the parts, not just the main dish.

Crackpot theory. OP is actually a crawfish dealer and this is all a ploy for people to get people hankering to do crawfish boils this weekend and increase demand.

Might actually work. Wife(no pics) was asking to do a boil this past weekend, but I put it off because my yard wasn't ready. Now that it's taken care of, might have to drop a pot this weekend and watch LSU rebound against Bethune-Cookman (who?) this weekend...2pm game on a Saturday is perfect for a low-key boil

I mean…it really is a damn good weekend to do a boil, outside the price. No big events, nice weather. Man now I’m wanting to play horseshoes or washer toss.

I can almost taste the spice. Or that boiled garlic squeezed out on to an onion and set on a piece of sausage.

You know what goes great in a boil? Radishes. It takes away some of that bite they have and they are just really tender morsels.

doesnt faze me one bit if i go 5 yrs without eating them, i rather spend my money on things much more important any way
