I got a pound and a half of boiled crawfish after reading this post. Most likely not as good as you guys in Louisiana get, but decent at $3.99 / pound.

I can eat a pile of the little critters though...I just wade in and let the carnage begin...but just the tails.
you folks who suck the stuff out of the heads...well...I'm gonna leave that where it's at. :p

I've never been to a crawfish boil, but the first time I had was while at work on an oil rig. They were damn good. I keep meaning to get some while on land; I'm sure i can find a good restaurant that makes a mean batch of crawfish.

I think you could use it as a good gumbo base.
