Ingredients

  • 3 lbs crawfish
  • 10 cups water
  • 6 oz. Crawfish Boil
  • 2 tablespoons McCormick Cajun seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon McCormick Lemon Pepper seasoning
  • 1 head garlic unpeeled but separated
  • 3 ears corn cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 12 oz. small red potatoes halved
  • 14 oz. smoked sausage
  • 1 lemon sliced into rounds

Instructions

  • Water should be put in a big pot. Water is brought to a boil. Add the Cajun seasoning, Lemon Pepper seasoning, and Louisiana Crawfish Shrimp and Crab Boil to the dish. To a roaring boil, stir thoroughly.
  • Garlic, potatoes, maize, sausage, and lemon slices should all be added. Cook for 10 minutes with the cover on the pot.
  • Try the crawfish boiling water first. Increase the water if it's too salty. Add additional seasonings to taste if it's too bland. Place the crawfish in the pot and cover it to simmer for 3–4 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and let the crawfish soak. The crawfish will become spicier the longer they soak. Serve right away after straining out all the ingredients. Throw away the boiling crawfish water.
