Cure Cravings on the Westside!

MARCH 2022

Crawfish season is in full swing, even as we move into the Lenten season featuring seafood Fridays! Sacks are coming out of the bayous and ponds, and we are ready to dig in! We have started the list of spots to pick up boiled and sacks of live crawfish for your neighborhood affairs, so check WestBatonRouge.net/Crawfish and let us know your updates for live and boiled crawfish on the Westside!

Recipes from the Westside

Crawfish Bonus!

This is a great way to use up those last few pounds of crawfish after the family crawfish boil is finished! Using canned and fresh ingredients, it's an easy recipe for weeknights with frozen, Louisiana crawfish tails as well!
