How do you properly eat a crawfish?

For Bayou Bugaloo with 8,000 pounds of crawfish on order, we show our readers how to eat them by our Louisiana native managing editor, Katrice Hardy.

*How to properly NOT peel a crawfish* 😂

[paulbly]

wrong on so many levels. And, she claims to be from Louisiana.

[cristianmccullough]

thats obviously her first time doing that

[jonsnipe]

wrong...u lift tail push it in then pull out u get all the meat

[creepincarl]

She made that look extremely difficult. If she takes that long to get to one tail, I can't eat with her. We'd be all day waiting for her to finish. She literally sat there and peeled the whole tail and made a terrible mess.

I know exactly how to eat Crawfish, I'm just too excited for the season this year

[yungamare]

your missing out. You have to break the tail off. drink the juice from the body. which tastes delicious. then rip the head off and drink that too. then you eat the tale. the juice inside is from the seasoning. not body juice or anything. They take that stuff out when there feasting them. Some people eat the yellow stuff inside. it's healthy

Damn I'm from New York and I eat crawfish right! She does it the hard (and stupid!) way!
Here's a step by step for ya kids!
1. Grab the craw.
2. Straighten the tail.
3. Push the tail into the body and twist.
4. Pull.
5. peel first "ring" off of tail.
6. Bite firmly onto the meat, pinch the bottom of the tail hard (to free the meat)
7. Pull the meat away and eat.
8. Lick the seasoning from outside the head.
9. Bite down about an inch up from there the tail was on the body (to avoid a mouthful of guts.)
10. Suck the juice and fat out.
11. Repeat until crawdaddies are gone!

omg.. you're meant to twist the head a bit, after that, gently push it in the head so you can get all the meat instead of pulling it out quickly. That's when you get a straight line of meat
( 0:44 ) which you don't want so you gotta push the tail towards the head. Then just bite the meat and press the tail so all that meat can open up to the world. Some might be saying take the first ring out first, but you don't have to since you pushed the tail inwards the head.

[panklady]

Who lied to her? I'm from New Orleans and she has it all wrong!

[dizzywun]

simplest way straighten up the tail shove it in slightly pull it back out and eat

[dreajp]

I swear, people act like people from different parts of the Southeast don't eat crawfish right. I see so many people saying she's wrong. And some that say she's wrong explain how her way is stupid and how they do it. But someone replies on their comment that they're wrong. If there are so many people that are saying it's wrong, why should anyone care? Just eat the damn crawfish LOL 😂 y'all would be fucking starving by the time y'all decide who's right.
