Old-Fashioned Texas Crawfish Boil Recipe

Old-Fashioned Texas Crawfish Boil Recipe

It’s 92°F outside; but we’re Texans, so we inherently enjoy turning up the heat to a level others would consider pure masochism. And what better way to (mis)treat ourselves than an old-fashioned crawfish boil.

Of course, there’s Pappadeaux (mediocre size/taste), Nate’s (bland), Cajun Corner (I don’t need my fortune told today), or Boiling Crab (charge for water), but for optimal taste for the price, make your own. Read More

The Sunday Morning Breakfast Post

photo With many miles of traveling ahead of us, Meversus had the chance to really sit back and enjoy the simple comforts of a late Sunday morning afternoon breakfast here in Dallas. A soggy weekend behind, Sunday turned out to be a beautiful day.

Meversus held its first annual crawfish party entitled “O’ Dang, Sha-bang”. Needless to say, it was a great success. Copious amounts of plastic wrap engulfing our furniture made for a quick and entertaining cleanup.

Quick shout-outs:

Acemart Restaurant Supply – for helping us realize our Dexter-like dream without suspicious questions. 7948

Fiesta Mart – to Erica, of the seafood dept. For holding our 40lbs of crawfish in the back until I could arrive. “These much biggest ones.”

Everyone – for coming out and helping us have a great time.

Sunday – for being the detox day of the weekend. It’s rare I get to spend a Sunday, devoted to Sunday. Cheers.
