There will be plenty if other food there and not everyone will eat them. I was thinking 3-5 lbs?

With that many people plus other food available, I would go with your assessment of 3-5 lbs.

3-5 pounds per person is a good estimate.

Since there are plenty of other foods, I would do 5lbs/person. Many people will probably only eat a couple pounds

With other food available and children included, I assume, 300 pounds will be plenty.

Last yr, not buying thru a distributor - u would have paid $1.75/lb

I would expect to pay $500 for 300 lbs of crawfish. Adding seasonings and boiled additions, ur probably lookin at $750

I suggest 6lbs. per person.

I also suggest you send me the address to pick up the leftovers.

300 is probably enough. 400 is plenty.

400 lbs.

Chicks love to snack and will not want to tear into shite in front of everyone. Save some $$$ and get 400

It never fails. We do two a year and by the time shits ready everyone has plowed through boudin and chips and plenty of filling beer
