Thread: crawfish ???? thats the question

Are you guy's really serious about sucking those crawfish heads? It would seem to me that there would be nothing in those heads but guts. They may or not be good but they don't seem very appetizing to me.

there is an art to sucking crawfish heads.if you can not stand that thought you can always pass your finger in the crawfish to get the fat out.that's what sucking the heads is all about getting the fat.i live pretty close to breaux bridge la which is the crawfish catital of the world.the crawfish festival is held every first weekend in may.i take my family down there every year.the kids have a great time!!!

as far as i have gone on weird food is sushi sushi mi loads of crab legs squirrel brains mountain oysters crab legs there is a place on the ohio river and its called the cajun kitchen i made reservations for next week it stays about that crowded so get back with me on the head sucking or eating the poor ole critters brain ill will try what you all recommend

It Is The Fat "the Yellow Stuff " Out Of The Head That Cajun's Love So Much That They Resort To Sucking The Heads For.we Leave The Rest Alone.now If You Are Making A Crawfish Bisque Then You Clean Every Thing Aout Od The Head Shell,wash That Shell Good And Then Stuff It With Crawfish Tails And Other Ingredients.cook It In A Sauce And Enjoy.

Is There Not A Fellow Cajun Or At Least Someone From Louisiana That Can Back Me Up On The Tradition!!!!!lol

Seems head sucking is odd to some.And thats okay!I dont suck em myself.But i have been told by those that do,beer drinking is the key to head sucking ---lots of beer lots of sucking! Now~~U~~~Know

Cajuns don't need anything but the crawfish; sucking the heads is an extra pleasure b/c most of the flavoring is in the heads. you don't really have to have beer, you can drink water, its the crayfish that you are eating.

I'M WITH YOU GATORGAR I'LL TAKE CRAWFISH WITH OR WITHOUT BEER,JUST SO I CAN HAVE THE CRAWFISH.ATE SOME TONIGHT AND THEY WERE GREAT.POLISHING SUPPER OFF WITH SOME BLUEBELL HOMEMADE VANILLA ICECREAM TOPPED WITH FRESH DEW BERRIES THE MRS AND KIDS PICKED YESTERDAY.I DON'T THINK IT GETS ANY BETTER THAN THAT!!!!!:D:p
