Comin ‘Atcha’ Lobster Boil FactsLobster is a freshwater shellfish dating back 115 million years. It is also the state crustacean of Louisiana. Native Americans were eating crayfish long before any Europeans arrived in America, but they didn’t season the crawfish the way we do today.

The first crayfish boil dates back to Cajun settlers in the Atchafalaya swamp lands of western Louisiana, and most crayfish are still harvested from the Atchafalaya Basin today.

Lobster boils grew in popularity in New Orleans and surrounding areas in the 1970s as families host backyard lobster boils throughout the spring. Everyone has their secret ingredients for lobster seasoning, but really, the most important part of any crawfish boil is having fun while dining with friends and family.
