Looking for recipes for homemade cajun or Louisiana style seasoning for an upcoming crawfish boil. I live overseas so shipping from the US will take too long. I've got access to standard ingredients but anything branded (Old bay, Zatarain's, etc.) will be much harder to come by. Thanks!

I have always used Louisiana Crawfish Shrimp and Crab Boil. Very easy to find.

Edit: Sorry, read your post wrong. I am of no help.

When is this crawfish boil? It's not crawfish season.

Or do y'all have crawfish elsewhere with a different season?

I am making this up, but I would use 4 lbs salt and then 3 cups each cayenne, onion powder and garlic powder for one sack of 35lbs of crawfish, 2/3 full 120qt pot
