THANK YOU for making a video that is short, sweet, and HELPFUL!!!
I didn't intend having to watch SO MANY POORLY done videos about how to eat crawfish before coming across this gem!! 💎💎
Finally somebody that knows what they're doing!! This is the correct way to eat a crawfish baby!
Chinasa Chike why no one show if there meat in the pinched claws???
I don’t eat it like this, I do suck the heads but i dont take the ring out i just suck, pinch and pull!
Nope gotta eat the claw meat too
but what about the claw
@@rawyouout I agree. Some of the sweetest meat
I'm here because I am craving crawfish. Earth's most underrated food
Facts.
Same here.
Same, still really don’t know why people don’t eat the claws much. I love that part!
Attack on titan
Short and sweet, thank you!
Thank you for this 😂 my local Chinese buffet had crayfish today and I’d never eaten it before (cries in Northern California) but it was delicious! I cannot wait to travel to a place like New Orleans to have some REAL soul food
I’m in N’awlins now and was looking for videos so I don’t look like an idiot on the boat buffet. lol
It’s going to be my first time. It looks a little gross, but I want the full experience.
This is the proper way to do it. Thank you 🙌🏽
No the proper way is your own way not someone else way , I eat how I want not because someone else says their way is right
@@beerman9807 you my friend, are a genius. I rly hope u have a great day 💓
I’ve seen several videos of people eating crawfish and they were lucky to get maybe 2-21/2 inches of meat. I thought, such a waste of life for a small morsel.then I saw your video and I admire your dedication to getting the most out of it. That’s the way it should be. My great grandmother was a rancher and she learned to use every single bit of the chicken, cow, pig, etc. especially during the Great Depression. Thank you for your video! 😊😊😊
Thank you for this simple way to eat crawfish!! Straight to the point.
A video from Syracuse, New York is the last thing I expected when I searched this on UA-cam
Just getting ready to make this at home. Wanted to make sure I did it right. Thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing!
I married into a family of Cajuns, and they do one thing differently: instead of peeling the tail by hand, they use a slick movement that accomplishes the same, but in one move:
put the meat end in your mouth, holding it gently with your lips & teeth, then push the tail inward, toward your mouth. This telescopically collapses the shell segments together (which separates them from the meat) and you can just slide the shell off, leaving the meat in your mouth.
SUPER efficient, especially since they too believe in quantity 😄
100 💯 that the way I enjoy it
Scooby and Shaggy ,made it look so easy on Scooby Doo on Zombie Island. 😆
Imagine being a crawfish and seeing this happen to your family .
no cause they dont have a brain they wouldnt care
@@Hitstix420 issa joke
calm down Jordan Peterson.
Bro What in the world I just turned vegan 😪🤧
Imagine being a crawfish and using youtube.
When I was in Vegas there were crawfish at one of the buffets we ate at. Being from Pennsylvania I've never been anywhere that serves them, so I grabbed a few of em because I heard they were a delicacy in the south. I had no idea how to eat them 😂
So my ignorant west coast self went to a new fish place and ordered Crawfish takeout thinking I was going to get breaded chunks of fish....... yeah.......... Blindly picked one up out of the bag and snatched my hand back so fast. I usually don't eat things while they're looking at me but I paid $14 for my bag of corpses and there was no way to not waste it so I scoured UA-cam looking for an instruction video so I wouldn't have to rip at it like a science experiment in a high school biology class. I talked to myself as I ate reminding myself that they're dead and I'm eating dead food and I kept my eyes on what my fingers were doing and not that I was consuming sea bugs. I got through a whole bag of about 20. I wasn't counting but it was delicious. I hope my ancestors are proud of me for completing this rite of passage.
Going to visit a friend in Syracuse this summer and I’m definitely stopping there 😂
Very helpful. Thanks!
That dude is a pro
Perfect!,
I watched a few videos and this was by far the best I e seen so far. Definitely like the “quantity of meat” family style lol get the bang for you mini lobstaa! 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I've had crawfish before but used Doordash today to order some for the first time in years. I can't peel the tails all that fast, but mainly wanted to know if there was meat in the body that could be eaten. It seems not, it's just good for the juice. As I'm eating a "boil bag" full of crawfish, shrimp, corn and red potatoes, there's plenty of the cajun juice so I'll probably pass on drinking the body, lol! But thank you for this video for confirming I wasn't missing anything (and as for the claws, seems like a lot of work for even less meat, so I'm not massively worried about those. I'll nibble them, but I wanted to ensure I was eating the bulk of what's edible on the crawfish).
Also, don't usually think of crawfish when I think of New York, so kudos to this guy! First had them when my family lived in Louisiana and now I live in Alabama (I do not say that with pride, just a matter of fact 😅).
Thank you.
Thank you! I’ve always wanted to try crawfish since it looked so good but didn’t wanna look stupid so here I am ahahah
I live in Washington state and I have never craved anything more that to try a crawfish boil
She sucked on the head and said, “Ooh, he a salty one!” I’m deceased.
Thanks for the tips I’m in Las Vegas about to eat some crawfish for my first time at The Orleans 😋
that man has swag!
Very nice. 👍
You gotta get the claw meat on the big ones
Thanks. I use to live in Syracuse.
Now I need the Seasoning
So I have a question. I just left my local Asian buffet and wanted to try some of these for the first time. I push, twisted and pulled out the tail but noticed it was dark and blackish. Is that normal? I thought it had gone bad so I didn’t try it. I was under the impression it is only supposed to be white. If it’s okay I’ll just try it next time.
Finally a factual video. Thank you!!
I'm in quarantine and I've never had crawfish before :(
TelePhotoLens they are so good
I'm sure you can find a place close to you
theres places with delivery/takeout
I’m just now having it for the first time lol
You’re missing out
He ate the doo doo.
it's not doo doo its fat look it up
@@cobxttersweet2982 it’s not fat the yellow stuff is the crawfish pancreas and liver.
Basically you're sucking out the guts... sign me up
The only thing I do differently is at the end, I always peel away the vein on top and it comes out looking like a Perfect piece of shrimp.
Yum yum
What about the meat in the body do u eat that, and do u eat the meat in the claws??
Title:How to eat crayfish like a pro
Reality:Eats crayfish normally
陈宜猛 its crawfish you asian
@@PhilipjFrytheonly it's either
@@milkyway8687 crayfish sounds cooler and more professional, so that's what I stick with.
@@thelonghaul9902 ok... Crayfish it is then
What about the claws?
She said it’s always good to be messy lol 😂 😏😏😏
Thanks so much. 1st time I caught, ate and served crawfish was with lime, wine and butter and we loved it. But I've asked around and for years no one can show me good cajun crawfish. I'd appreciate if anyone can tell me the best restaurant that can do cajun proper
Man you need to go to Louisiana for good crawfish what state are you in?
@@ricky624 that sounds right. I'm in CA and I got a spot to score about a dozen every couple months. I hear my great grandfather was creole so i think LA is calling me one day
Hook & Reel franchise does an AMAZING crawfish boil
@@sparkles2299 thanks. Where are they located?
@@Infinitebrandon country club hills/crest wood Illinois
If you’re not eating the head part then you’re really missing out.
I never had one but I sure wanna try them! How do they taste? Is it fishy?
lobster
I just tried them today. I love crab legs and shrimp, scallops, lobster, clams, mussels, fish...pretty much anything seafood, so I was excited to try these. I was surprised I didn't like them. Maybe because I was expecting lobster, but they just didn't taste good.
You got to eat sooooo many to at least be halfway satisfied or full and you question yourself if all of that work just for one is worth it
It's a social food. If you want something hearty and quick avoid it altogether.
Doesn't crawfish taste just like shrimp?
Tastes extremely similar to crab meat or lobster/also texture. They don't have a shrimp texture at all. Shrimp are more stringy.
It's underrated because its not lobster
thank you cuz i only kno how to eat crab legs and i be feeling left out
OMG! No man! that’s the holding tank like my RV’s, don’t suck it!
What about the poop inside the tail
Come to texas
How u all eat this!
I surprised!
Not gonna take out the poop line in the tail? Rookie move.
Hi, you don't take out guts?
Just ate crawfish for the first time. Its good. But too much work for the tiny piece of meat lol
YES LAWD IT IS PLATINUM
Nah you gotta get a fork and get that claw meat. Literally the easiest meat to get to and why let that go to waste.
Forgot the best part the claw
I don't eat the intestines but the meat is good.
Ah HA!
I used to have some in my river as a kid. It's kinda nasty that we eat bugs. Lol
That would be an insect. Crawfish are Crustaceans
@@jmanmarcus bugs of the seas. shrimp is related to roaches 🤢🤮
@@Dmvgold1995 shrimp and crawfish are two different thing as well……and their diet isnt even remotely close to that of a roach
I wanted to see how to get meat out the claw
What about that little boo boo sauce that be on the crawfish 🦞 tail you eat that too?😂🤦🏽♀️
Okay they forgot the claws lol
Idk bout yall, but i eat everything but the shell! The brain and all! Just Sucking the juice out? That a waste of food! If its not shell, its Edible! Wont hurt you, and thats where all the real flavor is at! Dont knock it till ya try it.🍤
What no one tells you make sure you clean the poop
nah, it was cooked it's fine
She didn't like the headjuice.
You can call it juice if you want, but you're sucking out liquified organs. That goes to the trash for me.
I open the shell and I don’t eat the green stuff Baws Hawg
Sounds delicious
But it tastes good, though. lol
Who cares what you do. Everyone from Louisiana suck the head.
Why does nobody crack them pinchers open!? There's meat in there to!
She don’t like it 🤣
barbarian
Isn’t the yellow stuff poop tho.
No. It's some kind of pancreatic organ that mixes with all the juice it's cooked in, in the crawfish. The poop vain is in the tail and can be pulled out, which they don't do here.
Dude your eating guts
it’s cooked guts so not as gross
Then don't eat it.
its the meat in the tail not guts
I will ALWAYS say this bug of the swamp is not meant to be eaten.
Until you have some.
🙄😂😂this white lady hilarious
She Asian I think
It’s not clean
They look like red roaches
But don't you feel sorry for the crawfish? Poor crawfish. They didn't do anything wrong.
Ok demonstration, but still amateur!
Crawfish are totally overrated. I prefer food bigger than my pinkie.
Not worth the effort.
I feel like this food entails you eating a lot of poop inside the crawfish. I’ll pass.
Gross
No thanks. This is way too much work for such a little amount of meat. If you actually eat these you have brain damage. Its a complete waste of time. I have absolutely no respect for anyone stupid enough to go through this ridiculous effort. Just eat other food that is normal
Shut your mouth, Robert. It's fun.
OMG. 😜🤪🫠👅😋
