Added some legs to our baw

That ain’t no lie :lol: I learned the hard way and lost some hair. I told the others that got some the same thing but some didn’t listen…I’m looking at you Uncle JackeD :lol:

What did you say? I couldn't hear you over the jet engine.


Different strokes for different folks. My crew loves that sound because it means the boil has started. Besides its only at full tilt for 8 min then its barely on to keep the water at a boil for the veggies nice and quiet.

large banjo burner. might take a couple minutes longer


I would wager more than a couple. I do have a 10" banjo burner I can swap out with 3 bolts for mine so I'll test it out one day. That's used for regular cooking (gumbo) and frying.

arent as advertised


It is exactly as advertised, its at a boil in about 8 min and the wind barely slows that down because those tubes help keep the heat on the pot. It also gets to a reboil in under 2 min.

Its all in what you like for your boil :cheers:

Smash burger and crawfish boil potato salad.

My only negative is the basket (not the pot) is a touch on the thin side but its plenty strong enough.


I wanted to bump this to say that they re did how they make the baskets a cpl years ago and its much better now. Maybe a tad thiner than some others but the rolled rim is much bigger and the handle is much thicker so it feels way more sturdy picking up 2 sacks of crawfish. HPC was also cool enough to swap out my old style with a new style when I went to pick up a order :cheers:

Was messing around with some other stuff with AI and decided to ask it to clean up the lootie picture that I had so sharing for future entertainment. :cheers:

Based on your down vote to up vote ratio, I think you know the answer.

Easily better. Regular Blanton's is meh to me and always has been. The gold is better but SFTB is the only one in my cabinet.

I have one and I run a silencer co Trilug with an omega 45K. It takes the B&T mags and, so far, the first few mags I used Blazer I think it was and it had some trouble feeding. I took it apart and cleaned it good and used ppu bulk ammo next and it has ran like a top since. I love it and so do my buddies when we go to the range. Naturally subsonic and it stays loaded with some Federal HSTs

Same company, same concept, same reason that miserable turkey fryer timer.

That pot better have a drain on it.


Ohh yea it has a drain on the left side in that last pic :lol: they can be ordered with a 3/4", 1", or a 1.5" drain valve. The one I have is 3/4 but id probably go to a 1".

My only negative is the basket (not the pot) is a touch on the thin side but its plenty strong enough.
2 sacks and the sides are in the crawfish sack buried in the middle. It’s tight but doable, you just have to man the fire to keep it from going over.

I fit 2 sacks in mine and fixings in mine but its tight. You have to watch the re-boil as you noted it can come on fast. Its pretty close to the rim but I can fit it and boil it enough. You could also take the basket out for a little more elbow room you just have to scoop out everything.

boil two sacks separately


I just like having the extra capacity of the 120 if I ever need it, and its not that much more money. I usually do 4 sacks for good Friday so I do 2 and 2.
I have a high performance 120qt pot and love it. Pricy yes but boils water in 7min and works well in the wind.

Keep in mind, my wife hates snakes lol. We’re sitting on the sofa watching TV and I get emotional alert. When I check the camera, I go “Whoah” and she’s like what? I said you don’t wanna know. :lol:

Sadly, no action was had that rat bastard was not home. So Mr rat snake went about its way empty handed.
