I love my lobster but the Alaskan King Crab is right there with it. All those crawfish look good. I am thinking about placing an order for some now. Anyone know how to catch them?

They catch them in baited traps. A net is layed out in the swamp with bait in the center of it. After sitting awhile they net is raised and the crawfish collected from the net.

$1.99/lb cooked
$1.69/lb un-cooked

Right down the road here in Shreveport. I mowed through 5 lbs the other night with some Abita - excellent!! In my younger days I'd pack away a heck of a lot more.

Crawfish is one of a few reasons why I havent left Louisiana. Oysters is on that list some where too especially the Chargrilled ones like they have at Dragos. I am really spoiled when it comes to my sea food.

Re: Crawfish or Crayfish if your from the north

I'm sad to say that I've never had crawfish as I'm from Boston where oysters and lobsters are what you eat from the sea, and now I live in Baltimore where crabs are really the only thing most restaurants have. They are definitely on my list to try though.

Tis the season for crawfish. Two weeks ago we killed off 90 pounds at a friend's party and a week ago we did in 50 pounds between 7 of us.

Try grilled oysters sometime is addition to the crawfish.. Throw oysters on the grill, shuck the top shell off when it pops. Doctor them up with butter or garlic buitter or your favorite pepper sauce cook them however well done people like and serve right off the grill!!! and it goes without saying some never make it to the grill...
This just made me really hungry!!!

Man, I was at a Crawfish boil and I really did try to eat some. But after a while... The taste.. They were decent, but i'd like my corn to taste like corn.

I admit it was a first for me as well and certainly different than the latin cuisine I'm used too but them suckers tasted good, the corn and sausage tasted just fine infused with crawfish juice!
