How much crawfish does one person eat?
At LA Crawfish the average is about 3 lbs per person (whole cooked crayfish yields about 15% tail meat, therefore 3 lbs of whole cooked crayfish equals about 1/2 lb of tail meat). However, it is important to take your guests into consideration, crayfish fans may consume 5-6 lbs of perfectly cooked crayfish easily in one sitting!
