Answer 3

Do a crawfish or shrimp boil. It's super easy!
Beer Boiled Crawfish

2 1/2 gallons Water
1 case Budweiser Beer
32 oz. Salt
four 8 oz. bottles Zatarain's Shrimp & Crab Boil With Lemon or Garlic & Onion
2 1/2 pounds New potatoes (boilers)
2 pounds Corn-on-cob
40 pounds (1 sack) Crawfish (I have used Shrimp when I could not find crawfish)


1. Pour crawfish into large container and wash with fresh water 2 or 3 times or until water is clear.
2. To large 60 quart cooking container, add first three ingredients. Add optional cayenne as desired. Bring to a rolling boil.

3. Add potatoes and any optional vegetables, return to boil, cover and cook 5-7 minutes at medium boil.

4. Add crawfish and Zatarain's Shrimp and Crab Boil with Lemon or Garlic & Onion. Stir and return to boil. Cook crawfish 3 to 5 minutes depending on size. Stir occasionally. Add corn and remove from heat. Allow to stand for 5 minutes.

5. Add ice, in plastic bag, to cooking pot to stop the cook of crawfish. (Water temperature should be below 150°F.) Allow crawfish to soak for 10-15 minutes. (The longer the crawfish are allowed to soak the spicier the flavor.)

Suggested Equipment & Utensils:

1. 60 quart pot (heavy aluminum) with basket
2. 1 large spoon or paddle to stir crawfish

3. Large container to wash crawfish

4. Water hose

5. Trays for serving crawfish

6. Table for dumping crawfish with newspaper or other suitable covering

7. Large trash can

Recommended Food and drinks:

Budweiser Beer, Soft drinks, Cocktail sauce, and Crackers

Optional: Onions, garlic, lemons, smoked sausage, etc. If spicier crawfish are desired, Zatarain's Cayenne Pepper may be added.
You'll need some jazz or zydeco cd's too!
Have fun!
