crayfish boil

Looks delicious.  We have these cajun seafood restaurants (like Boiling Crab, Crawfish Spot, Hot N' Juicy etc) that are really popular.  Crayfish, lobster, crab, shrimp, clams, and mussels in a garlicky butter pepper sauce all in a plastic bag.  Messy but wonderful to eat.
Next time you visit LA we'll have to take you to try it out.

That sounds difficult! Here in Sweden most people use net cages... Bacon fat sounds like more fun! :) Best Blomman

Those are crawfish or mudbugs, son, and you can find them on the coast of Mississippi and Louisiana. Getting late in the season for us, but they sure are delicious!

still remember...

Would love to try the Mississippi and Louisiana version one day!
