Anyone found them in the store yet?   How are they looking so far?

I ordered 2 sacks from Stuffed Foods to boil tomorrow.  So I will let you know.  They did not have the graded select ones this weekend.   

What is you go to dry seasoning for a crawfish boil?  I usually use Tony Chachere but I can't find the gallon jars of if in Austin and do not want to mess with the little ones.

Neighbor is having a crawfish boil this afternoon.

We did a neighborhood boil St Patty's weekend. Got 3 sacks from Stuffed. I didn't procure the crawfish so didn't ask if they were graded, but they were good size and quality. We use Zatarain's Pro Boil.

HEB is at 2.97 lb. They usually have a weekend or two at 1.97 lb. Not the biggest but usually clean.

Yea did HEB last weekend at 2.97. They were fine.

Stuffed is 3.49 this weekend for 30lbs or more. They indicated Easter weekend is a little higher though then other weekends. Still no graded for them.

Dry seasoning for what?  The boiling liquid?  Swamp fire is kickass, IMO.

Can someone school me on the entire process on a boil? Type slow, and act like you are talking to somebody who knows enough about cooking but nothing about mudbugs other than how to eat them and drink beer.

Last Friday was awesome!  Good sized for this time of the year and my neighbor is a pro!

I like to let them steam in a cooler with the dry seasoning.  I also put a some in the water for the boil.  I ended up using Zatarain's and they turned out pretty good.   

 

The Crawfish were good size that I got from Stuffed but it was a zoo picking them up on Saturday.

Had some last week in clear lake. They were pretty good sized.

In case anyone in Houston still cares The Patio on Richmond is doing $25 all you can eat today.

Their crawfish are excellent.
