It is very simple to make but so much flavor. This recipe can be altered based on the amount of crawfish you have. You will need a large pot.

Ingredients

5 lb Crawfish can adjust the recipe based on the amount of crawfish or add other seafood
3 bottles light beer such as corona or strella
1 gl water
3 tbsp old bay seasoning
1 bag crawfish shrimp & crab boil bag Zatarain's brand
1 bag small potatoes
6 whole corn cut in third
1 1/2 sticks butter
2 bay leafs
2 sticks dried dill the kind you would use for canning but you can use fresh dill instead
salt to taste

Instructions

Make your broth, combine water, beer, butter, all the seasoning, crab boil bag, dill and bay leaf. Bring it to a boil. Taste for salt, it should be pretty salty but not to the point you cant swallow it.
when broth has been boiling add potatoes, cook for 5 min. Than add corn let it cook for 3 more min . Now you can add all the crawfish. Bring it to a boil and cook for 10 more min. Remove from the heat.
everything can stay in the liquid or you can remove everything on place on to a serving platter, if you have left overs you can leave it in the liquid it will absorb more flavor.

My story, I met the love of my life when I was 16 and two years later we were married. When we first got married I was not much of a cook, I would buy so many cook books and try recipes over and over again until it would turn out. I never gave up and my husband can tell you I had my share of bad cooking. The more I practiced the better I got. Now we are going on 10 years of happily married. I love to cook and create my own recipe also became a baker, I have also taken interest in doing home design and decor. In my blog I would love to share with you the recipes I create, recipes I find and love to share also tips for home decor and ideas.
