Gotta Zydeco!
No jamboree is complete without a musical soundtrack and Crawdad’s! aims to bring you an authentic southern experience by providing the classic sounds of Louisiana zydeco music.
Zydeco is a popular form of dance music originated in southern Louisiana by the Creoles. It combines French and Caribbean musical elements with blues and utilizes a guitar, washboard, and accordion.
Clifton Chenier pioneered modern zydeco in the 1950s and is considered one of its best-known performers today. Other famous zydeco artists include Buckwheat Zydeco, Geno Delafose, and Chris Ardoin.
Our custom-designed “Big Rig” Boiling units can handle up to 2,500 pounds of crawfish an hour!
Crawdad’s! Cookin’
No matter your event size, Crawdad’s! strives to offer the healthiest, liveliest, and cleanest crawfish you’ll ever eat. With our “fresh” method, we don’t start preppin’ ‘n’ cookin’ until the day of your event, and with our on-site cooking, you’ll be able to watch us every step of the way.
Fresh pounds of crawfish are shipped directly from Louisiana, and hand washed at our custom cleaning station. While this can be arduous, it allows us to handle every crawfish we boil, pulling out the dead ones and any debris that may have gotten mixed in.
Once the live crawfish have been washed and sorted, they’ll get another final wash to ensure they’re thoroughly cleaned. After that, into the boiler they go! Our three-stage cooking process boils the crawfish in heavily seasoned water, soaking them in even more seasoned water until the flavor is absorbed, then optionally seasoned with our New Orleans special recipe.
The traditional New Orleans recipe uses a blend of ingredients that includes cayenne pepper, salt, a hint of garlic and onions, and eight other herbs and spices to give our mudbugs their unique flavor.
