CRAWFISH BOIL
Crawfish boils are a messy, fun, hands-on, social experience and not as intimidating as one would think. Add as little or as much heat as you like-these little guys get more flavorful the longer they sit. Bring the spicy bold flavors of this Louisiana shellfish to your next backyard gathering. Don't forget the paper towels!

Steps:
- Place the crawfish in a large cooler, cover with cold water and add 1 cup of the salt. Allow the crawfish to purge in the salted water for 5 to 10 minutes. (This Southern tradition is said to remove mud and impurities before cooking.) Strain the crawfish and set aside.
- Fill a 42-quart stockpot fitted with a boil basket halfway with water. Add the crab and crawfish boil seasoning and remaining cup kosher salt. Then add the sausage, corn, onions, lemon juice and rinds, garlic, butter, thyme and bay leaves. Bring to a boil. Add the potatoes and boil until just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Carefully add the crawfish to the stockpot and cook until they're bright red, about 8 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and add the ice to the stockpot to halt the cooking. Allow the crawfish and other ingredients to sit in the iced water for 25 to 30 minutes (the longer the crawfish sit, the more flavorful they become).
- Pull the crawfish, sausage and vegetables from the water using the boil basket. Serve over newspaper spread out on a table and sprinkle with seafood boil seasoning.
COPYCAT BOILING CRAB RECIPE
This recipe attempts to recreate the Cajun crawfish recipe served at Vietnamese restaurants in Little Saigon like The Boiling Crab, Claws, or The Crawfish House. It's what's known as Asian fusion, and the recipes are kept top secret. Buy 1-2 pounds of crawfish per person.

Steps:
- Pour live crawfish into a washtub or ice chest; cover with water. Drain. Repeat 3 to 4 times until crawfish are clean. Drain. Discard any dead crawfish and debris.
- Cook crawfish by boiling in hot water with the Louisiana Crawfish Boil, quartered lemon, potatoes, corn and sausage (add potatoes, corn, and sausage 15 minutes prior to crawfish). While they are cooking make the sauce:.
- Melt the margarine over low heat in a large saucepan. Add garlic and saute until translucent.
- NOTE: This will get salty fast with the Cajun seasoning and Old Bay, so add them in tiny, tiny amounts. Add Cajun Seasoning, Old Bay, cayenne pepper (start with 3 t. then add more for spiciness), lemon pepper, paprika, and liberally add Louisiana Hot Sauce. When you have the mixture right, add a tiny bit of lemon juice (roughly 1/4 lemon).
- Simmer for 10 minutes and check for flavor. Add more cayenne, paprika, or hot sauce as desired.
- Drain the boiling water (or ladle out the crawfish, sausage, and vegetables) and mix the sauce in with them. Serve with hot crusty french bread.

Steps:
- If you have not already done so, drink a cold beer.
- After your beer, you would normally purge the crawfish.
- This is not necessary since our crawfish come pre-purged.
- Just rinse out the crawfish with fresh water and boil.
- If you want, use the time you saved by not purging the crawfish to have another beer.
- Drink another beer.
- Give one to a friend.
- Fill the large pot half full with fresh water, place on outdoor propane cooker, and start the fire.
- Place the lid on the pot and bring water to a boil.
- Add about 1 lb of Fruge's Original Seafood Boil to water.
- Let the boiling water mix it well for a minute or so.
- Time to drink another beer.
- Send sober friend to store for more beer.
- Drop in all 8 onions (halved), the potatoes and fresh garlic.
- Let this cook, keeping an eye on the potatoes (Check for doneness by stabbing with a sharp knife or fork. If it goes in easy, it is cooked. Hint: Do not over cook potatoes, slightly under cook them because they will continue to steam and cook in ice chest. You don't want to end up with mashed potatoes) When the potatoes are almost done, add the corn and mushrooms.
- After they have cooked, lower the fire on the burner and remove the basket.
- Place the vegetables in a small clean ice chest- don't close the lid- just place foil on top.
- Time to drink another beer.
- Turn the heat up on the burner.
- Add more spice to the water.
- (About 1. 5 lbs., save one half lb. of spice for later.) Take the lemons (halved) and squeeze the juice in the water.
- Then add the lemons to the water.
- When the water comes to a boil place the crawfish into the basket and put the basket in the pot.
- (Be careful- it's very hot!) Put the lid on the pot and enjoy another beer.
- When the water comes back to a boil- keep a very close eye on this part- let it boil for 4 minutes and turn off the fire.
- Let it soak for another 3 minutes and then remove.
- Kill the boil by adding cold water or ice, not much is needed maybe a gallon or so.
- Then let the crawfish soak.
- They will sink to the bottom and fill with spicy water (JUICES).
- Get an old table and place old newspapers on top.
- Dump the basket of crawfish on top of the newspaper and sprinkle with leftover spice.
- Dump the onions, potatoes, corn and garlic on top of the crawfish.
- Now it's time to really drink beer and eat.
- The vegetables are for those guests who cannot figure out how to peel the crawfish.
- At least they won't starve.
- Tips: To hold hot crawfish for a short time (1-2 hours), you can use a styrofoam ice chest.
- Most plastic chests will melt or warp.
- Use leftover spice to experiment.
- You can always add more to the ice chest.
- Sprinkle it on, stir it up and let it steam in chest for 10 minutes.
- Then test again.
OLD-FASHIONED CRAWFISH BOIL
Boiling crawfish is an art - something that quickly becomes apparent to anyone who's watched a cook prepare the cooking liquid. This recipe has been modified for ease of preparation at home. Most Cajuns have a strong opinion about what should or should not go into the pot. Use this recipe as a guide and modify it to your own tastes - more vegetables or less, spicier or not. And remember, when live crawfish in the shell are not in season, you may simply substitute shrimp.

- Squeeze lemons over pot, add lemons and crawfish, and stir to combine. Cover and return mixture to the boil. Cook until shells turn bright red, about 8 minutes. Serve immediately.

THE PERFECT CRAWFISH BOIL - CAJUNCRAWFISH
Before dropping in the crawfish, you’ll want to add some more seasoning (anywhere from 1-3 extra pounds) to the water and then bring the water to a boil. Usually we suggest 1 lb. of seasoning per 10 lbs. of crawfish. Once that water is bubbling, you can add the crawfish. When cooking the crawdads, you only want to boil about one sack at a time.
