I married into the New Iberia mafia and god dammit if they don’t all do this. Just like my Baton Rouge and New Orleans friends warned me about.

No not really

Dusting is fricking retarded whether you know how to boil or not

Why not dust fried turkey instead of marinating them?

I can have the best boiled crawfish in the history of man in front of me and I'll still lightly dust them. Just a preference if mine.

I'd never dust an entire boil, only my serving.

Think you need to reread what I wrote. I'd dust yours too.

I’ve retired from boiling at the big boils and passed it down to the younger generation



I see why, thankfully.

Gonna be a long off season for crawfish if we’re already arguing about dusting. Next is the people that steam instead of boil and that crawcaine guy and his mustard

Yes. They have been assisting for years and have learned well.

They now make the best boiled Crawfish of anybody they know (except me :) as well.

Boiling crawfish makes no sense. Inefficient, doesn’t taste as good

This is what happens when you don’t know what the frick you’re doing. And it happens a LOT.

People think you just put a lot of water in the pot, dump the Crawfish in, boil them for a while and drain them and dump them on the table.

Therein lies the problem. They suck.

And with the price of Crawfish these days, it’s a huge waste of money.
