Oh no, not another food thread.

Got my seasonal 40 pound sack of crawfish from Louisiana yesterday and my buddy showed up with about 8 dozen blue crab. mmmmmmmm=P~

Break out the cooker!

I gave them a shower then a couple baths and one more shower before putting them into the hot tub.

Shell-fish. LOL

These have a unique flavor that that says....MORE! =P~

I can do about 2 lbs at a time heads and all. The nice thing is once they are cooked, I can freeze in 2 lb portions. They last about 3 weeks before there gone. =P~

I found this video Grant. This guy has the basic technique.

I only eat the tails and claws but some people also suck on the body sections after they remove the tail.

We have crawdads out in the ponds. Can never catch them though they are fast. One swish of there tail and they are gone. I find them every now and then up on the bank with the tail eaten off.

Looks good now you need some oysters.
 
Everytime I hear crawdads, I think about the Beverly Hillbillies episode where Grannie and Jethro are smoking crawdads. [ame="http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZgDHCt0-sc"]http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZgDHCt0-sc[/ame]

By the way, is that a Mopar in the closing shot?

Glad you enjoyed your crawdads.

Shoot I eat em 20 lbs at a time.
Going to an all you can eat mud bug party and dance tommorrow. I can probably polish off 4 or 5 of the cardboard case boxes full in the 2 hours they are serving. Crawdads have it made. They get their tails pinched and their heads sucked. lol
 
MeMike you my friend have a PM. Blame it on these other guys. I'm a head suckin SOB.....on a crawfish. I'll call ya later. See ya tomorrow at the Leon Russel concert. DD, i knew we had something real in common. I may ride down and see ya when the wife flys to Colarado to the big run. I'll have a whole week.
