From January until July, crawfsh season kicks-off in the state of Texas. Crawfsh are small crustaceans that live in freshwater and are similar in favor to shrimp and lobster. Boiled crawfsh is a cuisine that is extremely popular in southern states, especially Louisiana and Texas.

Since the inception of the Big Crawfsh Bash in 2014, teams from local restaurants and passionate crawfsh boilers from all around have come together in a cook-off to compete for bragging rights, a cash prize, and the title of “The Best Boil”. In 2017, the Big Crawfsh Bash set the Guinness World Record for the largest serving of crawfsh in eight-hours with a total of 58,083.98 pounds. Across the entirety of the event, they ended up serving over 65,000 pounds.

Fast forward to 2022, the Big Crawfsh Bash has no plans of slowing down. Since the inception of the event in 2014, teams from local restaurants and passionate crawfsh boilers from all around have come together in a cook-off to compete for bragging rights, a cash prize, and the title of “The Best Boil”. This year’s event took place on April 2nd and had well over 10,000+ attendees. The event includes all-you-can-eat crawfsh, vendor booths, kid-zone, sponsors area, live music, and more.
