Crawfish Boil Question

[mikedatiger]

Been a while since I boiled crawfish, so I am looking for a guide to know how much vegetables to buy (potatoes, corn, onions, etc..). Boiling 150lbs - is there an easy formula like #lbs per person like there is for crawdads?

[adamsfence]

i normally just figure 2 pot and 2 corn per person.

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

i would say at least 10 packs of corn and 5 potatoes

Don't forget the sausage, turkey necks, brussels sprouts, celery, elephant garlic, bok choy, and boudin. You gotta boil the boudin in a mesh bag though. No matter how hard you try to stop it, one is going to burst on you.

what is bok choy?

[yak'em-n-stack'em]

its like a chinese cabbage

[blackmamba]

Throw in some baby carrots too

[coachlaw]

It's in your produce aisle. Try it in a boil. You'll like it. I throw it in after the fire is off and just soak it for about 15 mins. No need to cook it down. Just let it get some juices in it.

i dated a guy named bok choy once.

[Armand16]

throw in a few cloves of garlic

Like adam said, i always have too much vegetables left over.

[Dink]

Definitely need smoked sausage and the mushrooms........I also put lemons in the boil, kids eat it.

[swamp snorkler]

you can also get you some cans of green bean pop some holes in them and boil it with your other "greens"

[Big Lake Blondie]

you can throw some brocolli spears in there too...don't boil too long because they'll boil to pieces, but they soak up some flavor...:D
