We had a great time at our first crawfish boil of the season yesterday. It was so great having our friends and family over to enjoy this wonderful crustacean.
You can do it too!
Here's what you'll need for about 10 people...
- 35-40 pounds of crawfish
- a big pot with a basket inside
- an outdoor propane burner
- 4 1/2-pound bag of Louisiana Crawfish, Crab, and Shrimp Boil Seasoning Blend
- 3/4 box of table salt
- 6 large onions (quartered)
- 6 lemons cut in half (squeeze the juice and put it in there too)
- 5 pounds small red potaotes
- 12 shortie ears of corn
- 4 pounds of the largest mushrooms you can find
- 8 heads of fresh garlic sliced in half horizontally, divided
- Fill the pot about half full of water
- Add 3/4 box of table salt
- Add entire 4 1/2 lb-bag of Louisiana Crawfish, Crab, and Shrimp Boil Seasoning Blend
Then add the following and bring to a boil (do not put basket in pot yet):
- 6 large onions (quartered)
- 4 heads of fresh garlic sliced in half horizontally for seasoning the water
- 6 lemons cut in half (squeeze the juice and put it in there too)
- 5 pounds small red potaotes
Then add the following in the basket:
- 12 shortie ears of corn
- 4 heads of fresh garlic sliced in half horizontally for eating
- 4 pounds of the largest mushrooms you can find
After soak time, remove all from the water and set aside in an ice chest to keep warm.
Return water to a boil. Now add all the crawfish into the basket in the same water. Cook for 15 minutes, turn off flame and soak for 15 minutes.
Ray is giving you a peak inside the pot!
For all of you folks that do not have all the fixins available to you, stay tuned. We will be launching a new website soon with everything you need.
