Now I am sure I don’t have to tell you but there is nothing that can be a good bowl of chowder, and once you try this Crock Pot Crawfish Chowder you will realize that you have found the perfect cold weather chowder, and it is amazing how easy this is to make even if you don’t know how to cook crawfish. Now if only everything could be grilled, but sadly some things can’t like this chowder so I am thankful my old lady turned me onto the crockpot. (I have included links to some great products that I have bought on my own or that I would buy. You can buy them too through my online sales links which earn this site a small commission.)

I know what you are thinking Crawfish in chowder?? Trust me this recipe will be a hit when you take it anywhere! I made this the first time for a Superbowl party and it was the first dish gone, and then the same thing at a celebration of life as well. now you can make this with freshly caught crawfish, frozen tail mea, or store bought crawfish, any way you get the crawfish you only need the tail meat.

Crock Pot Crawfish Chowder Directions

In a large skillet melt the butter with the minced garlic

Once your butter has melted saute the crawfish in the skillet with the butter and garlic

Allow the crawfish to saute for about 20 minutes

We used an 8-quart crock pot to make this in, would you believe the old lady has 6 crockpots?? The 8-quart crock pot is her favorite size and go to size when making soups or chowder, it’s the perfect size to make a batch big enough to have the leftovers!! Plus you can order one on Amazon so you don’t even have to leave the house, order and bam UPS man is saving dinner time for you when you use Amazon Prime 2 day delivery! (Don’t have Prime?? You NEED for easy online shopping!!)
