fill pot halfway with water, bring water to a boil, put in 3/4 sack swamp dust, 1/4 container of cajunland complete boil , and 1/2 bottle of zatarains liquid, put in sweet potatoes, potatoes and garlic and boil for 15 minutes, put in crawfish and bring back to a boil and boil for 3 minutes, kill fire and soak for 25 minutes, add lemon juice and frozen corn while soaking, this is for 1 sack, i like to change water after every batch.

Me too. My recipe is dialed in, and I prefer the consistency of starting with a fresh pot each sack.

What he said is generally what I do (different seasonings)



Has any one tried the 2 pot steaming method? steam in one pot and soak in another with spices, if so how were they? May give that a try next time.

put in crawfish and bring back to a boil and boil for 3 minutes,

But they are done cooking at a temp well below boiling. And in the time lead up to boiling, that’s many minutes way above the temp needed.
So you end up overcooking them.
