We just had in the paper a couple of months ago where someone had released some of these crawdads into some ponds in Wisconsin. They were treated as an invasive species and poisoned out. I wish they would have told me before hand, cause I would have trapped as many as I could.

i’ve ordered from LA Crawfish Company last year and the year before, and I will again this year. LA Crawfish gives you the option of having them shipped to a local airport for cheaper than the FedEx rate. In 2007, i chose this option, since i was getting 60lbs (i think i ended up paying $2.95/lb — shipping is included in all prices. Crawfish get bigger and cheaper the later you get in the season which starts around January and ends around July, I do a memorial day boil). You tell them which airport, and if its one that they ship it to, they’ll do it. only problem is, say you want them to ship them on friday for a saturday boil — your airport might not be open on saturday! You have to make the calls to make sure of that — in the ny area, its best to use newark, which is open 24/7 — i had requested laguardia before i figured this all out, and it was a pain to re-route it)

last year i just had 15lbs FedEx’d to me. both times the crawfish were huge and I didn’t find a single dead one — except for one that was crushed under the weight of 60lbs of his compatriots.

Oh man, we ordered Cajun Grocer’s crawfish last summer and weren’t disappointed either. We’ve already planned an even bigger order for this summer! Looking forward to the second half of your tale.

We’ll be having crawfish this Saturday. We’ve done it the Saturday before Easter for about 20 years now.

That is one big crawfish! This looks great, I’m seriously thinking about having a crawfish boil, if only to blow some Ohioans minds!

I just got back from New Orleans, Cochon was amazing, as was Lukes.

15lbs is just about enough for me… in one sitting I know… I lurve me some crawfish. I’m dying to try this, but nobody else in my family will eat mud bugs… I guess I need to make a few new friends.

Hey there! I am so happy I stumbled on your site a couple months ago. I grew up in Mobile, AL and made several annual pilgrimages to NOLA. I love that city! I haven’t been back in about 5 years, so I haven’t seen post-Katrina New Orleans. Your posts are so much fun, and I can’t wait to try out some of your recipes and recommendations! Thanks and keep up the good work!
