Make sure there's beer.
Crawfish season, which if you're not from the South is not when crustaceans fall from the sky, is one of the few documented times when it's totally OK to suck the hot brains from a tiny crustracean head. Mark Andresen, the illustrator who's no stranger to Not-Eating-This-Shit Properly, provides this quick guide. Also, make sure you have glacier-cold beer.

Where are some good places to get crawfish in Dallas besides Papadeux.

Papadeux is to Cajun/Creole what Olive Garden is to Italian.

You must suck the head! If you peel off the first legs of the crawfish (closest to the head) then squeeze the tail the meat should pop out sans poop. TWSS.

That was obviously filmed in NOLA. I would sure like to know where in Dallas can you get crawfish as big as those in the video. They were monsters!

They get theirs locally (of course). A lot of places around here serve imported, most likely from China. Shameful!!! Ask before ordering, or even going to a place, so you don't waste your time on sub-par crawfish. - Your friendly Cajun
