• Insert the basket into the pot and fill the pot to the 40% point with water.

• Pour in a bag of ice
• Hose down outside sides of pot
• Utilize a cool down system like our Boil Boss product.

• Allow the Crawfish to soak for 15 minutes.
• Begin to taste test the crawfish until you achieve your desired spice/heat.
• Lift the basket out of the pot and allow it drain for a few minutes. Use your HPC aluminum paddle to put between basket and pot to have it drain easily.
