So my sister is coming in from D.C. this weekend. Even though I told her it's early in the season she still wants me to boil Crawfish because she won't be coming back all spring. Does anyone have a good connection within say... 75 miles of Houston where I could get a few sacks this Saturday? I haven't seen anything at the grocery store and always prefer to buy from somewhere other then Kroger or H-E-B anyway.

Thanks.

Check out Boyd's One Stop in Texas City just before the Dike. They sent a text this morning advertising field run for $1.67/lb and preferred for $1.97/lb. Prices valid Tuesday - Thursday, sack price.

+1 for Boyds, and I know you said you don't prefer grocery stores but HEB does have them already at least in some locations.

Another vote for Boyd's, or Rose's Seafood in Kemah.

I called Boyd's earlier today and the lady told me she wasn't sure if they would have some for the weekend. She said to call and check back later or that morning. Also said to watch their FB. I read Boyd's pricing as buying crawfish to take today thru Thursday, not weekend pricing.

I ended up reserving 4 sacks today with Cajun Gourmet who delivers to different areas of Houston.

$2.75/lb.

If you ever want to bypass GOB's and get them straight from the guy who sells to them let me know.

I will just post the info here. My buddy moves close to 1 million lbs of crawfish a year and sells to a lot of the people that have been mentioned on here over time. He lives in Spring but they purge and store the crawfish down in Rosharon. Also does catering and can cook up to 1500 lbs at a time if needed. If anyone is a member of Westside Tennis Club, we have been doing that one for about 5 years now.

What side of town are you on? There is not much "good stuff" anywhere and last weeks molts were pretty bad. Feel free to PM me and I can tell you which distributor will be closer to you. As far as price or variety, you cant go wrong with Boyds if its within your range. He is the 2nd largest in the US.

***oh and disclaimer- I sold our company so I don't have a "dog in the hunt anymore"...nor will I mention which company bought us.

We had our crawfish boil this past Saturday. Reserved 4 sacks earlier in the week with http://www.cajungourmetcrawfish.com. Met their truck at a drop off site, no problem. The people who answered the phone seemed really nice and answered all questions. Crawfish was decent size for a boil (medium).

I would use them again. I would like to hear from somebody else about John Brooks crawfish.

The Saturday before last there was a dude with a trailer on Ella just north of 610 using some not-so-hot chicks with posterboard signs. I didn't take a look.

I wanna have a boil this year. It would be my first time doing it myself. Anybody have a good recipe? I've got a turkey fryer and a kiddie pool ready to go.

Bought from Boyd's this weekend we got their field run and they were more small than medium, but it is early in the season. If I were to do it again, I would have gone preferred. I did get 5lbs of some of their large shrimp that was $6.99 and they were fantastic.

Does he have a minimum buy qty or anything? Live in Sienna so right around the corner from Rosharon.

I do not think there is a minimum but would need to check with him to confirm. I have seen customers getting some partially filled bags before

I'm in Klein and planning a boil this weekend. He deliver or do I need to pickup?
plowboy1065

Call him and ask since he doesn't live too far from you. How many lbs are you thinking? I'm helping him do a boil for a company during the day on Friday and could possibly grab what you need if you could set it up with him and meet me in Cypress

Only a sack or two. Maybe 40 lbs. I'll give him a call.

Sack normally goes 30-35 lbs

I'm thinking you just need to go into the crawfish bidness.

He's approached me about doing some stuff but I have enough on my plate with real estate and starting up my wife's vet clinic. Just doing the catering jobs is good enough for me

We are doing a boil next week. I'd think at this point I'm looking at doing cajun gourmet or HEB.

Cajun Gourmet is saying 2.50/sack lb right now which is not a bad price at all.
