A Few Crawdads

[cowgirl]

This was a cook while camping at the lake a couple of weeks or so ago.

Friends from Texas met me at the lake and brought some crawdads with them.

While they sorted through the crawdads, I got the pot ready.

Seasoned with Swamp Dust and salt..

also garlic, lemon juice, onions, smoked sausage..

added tatoes next...

when the tatoes were almost tender I added the corn..

This time, instead of adding the crawdads and shrimp. We dumped the veggies and did the crawdads separate. Long story. lol Can you believe, some people don't want crawdads touching their veggies? :laugh:

Next came the crawdads and shrimp..

Yes, he got pinched several times. Texans... :tsk: :laugh:

I ate quite a few while tending the pot, then grabbed a bowl and moved to a quiet area before the others moved in.

Served with plenty of napkins and cold beer to wash it down..

It was nice to see my Texas friends. We hadn't gotten together since deer camp in November.

Over all, it was a nice weekend.

Sorry for so many pics, but thanks for looking!

Thank you Andy! I like to season the pot water with the onions, garlic, lemons, swamp dust, salt and smoked sausage first. Then add tatoes. The tatoes soak up the goodness, they cook quick too. :grin:

That's a mighty bodacious Cajun boil right there!

Not sure there's such a thing as too many pictures.

Better be careful, if you put that crusty bread in the bowl it might get all soaked up with juices and you'll need to pick it up with your fingers and eat it.
