In Reply to: Recommendation for where to buy live crawdads posted by ZZFlats on June 17, 2008 at 00:42:02:
This is what I would do:
UnYawn's Crayfish Boil
one sack crayfish (45 lbs.)
6 bags Zataran’s crab boil (try not to bust the bags when stirring)
16 oz. Zataran’s liquid crab boil
1 1/2 boxes salt (±)
10 ozs. granulated garlic powder
2 ozs. cayenne pepper (don’t be a wimp!!)
2 cases Heineken beer (don’t be a wimp!!)
5 lbs. onions (cut 2/3 thru, not in half)
8 heads garlic (cut in half)
1 bunch celery (cut off butt, cut stalks in 3” pieces)
corn (12 small ears)
5 lbs. potatoes (small creamers)
3 packs small mushrooms
2 packs wieners
2 packs smoked sausage
8 lemons
directions:
fill pot 1/3 with water and bring water to a hard boil, add bags, liquid crab boil salt, cayenne and garlic powder
boil all veggies (except corn and lemons) till potatoes are almost done, about 8 to 10 minutes
add crayfish, when water comes back to a hard boil, time for 6 minutes then turn fire off, add corn during the last two minutes of cooking
cut lemons in half, squeeze in and stir (do not bust the season bags)
let soak for 30 minutes, check crawfish periodically for doneness (underdone is chewy and overdone is mushy). if they are done to your liking and they haven’t soaked for 30 minutes just add a little ice to kill the boil and continue to soak
drain and enjoy!
