20 pounds of live crawfish1/2 box of salt 6 lemons cut in wedges 3 pounds of onions, cut in wedges 1 1/2 boxes of salt 1/4 bottle of liquid crab boil 1/4 bottle of red pepper
Directions:
Cull the crawfish and remove all the dead ones. Place the live crawfish in a large tub. Add one-half box of salt and enough water to cover them. Leave the crawfish in the tub for 20 to 30 minutes allowing them to purge. Rinse them thoroughly. Fill a large seafood-boiling pot about one third full of water; add all the ingredients except crawfish and bring the water to a brisk boil for about 10 minutes. Pour the crawfish into the pot. After the water comes to a boil again, let boil for about seven minutes. Cut off the fire and let the crawfish soak for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. | |
