my folks (aunts/ uncles/ cousins) live just east of Bucksport; we go up every summer for a get together... 2 big steamers; going one with clams the second with "chickens" (1 1/4 lb lobsters) and a lot of clarified butter, Texas Pete's Louisianna Hot Sauce, cold Labatts and napkins. mmmmmm....

As far as the pic - I'm voting for someone dipping 1/2 of it in hot water.

1st week of August - just look for the crowd standing around the steamers with plates in one hand and blue in the other. :)

I had crawfish for the first time last week!!! Very good, but they don't beat scallops! I love scallops! Enough of talking about food! I missed lunch, and now I'm off to find something good to eat!

Man, I just love those tasty little suckers :) Our local New Orleans cuisine store shut down over a year ago, but I still daydream about their crawdad dishes :)

out of curiosity, I find it odd that some places call them crawfish, some crawdads... interesting:) kinda like livermush and scrapple :)

Thanks for the links..I'm in NE Ohio and I NEVER heard of either until today..
It is kind of regional... I grew up with the stuff! Still eat it once in a while. Quite tasty!

I never had scrapple (what I know it as). Actually, I never heard of it at all until I started working at a grocery store several years ago. Livermush just sounds discusting- more so than scrapple. I keep wanting to say scrabble, and so I think of the game. What a sheltered life I had!

You guys have talking about all this great seafood for all this time and I forgot about this thread—could kick myself now, imagining all the great fantasy meals I could have had while reading your incoming posts! :wink1:

Crawdad, crawfish, crayfish... whatever you call'em, they're good beyond description. They have a lovely sweet flavor that most North American shrimp don't... great with a nice Reisling or good hoppy bitter-style ale... sigh... I wonder if I can persuade my family to out for seafood tonight... not a chance, alas! :waah:
