There is nothing better than eating a bunch of crawfish tails dipped in butter, with Cajun spices, or even out of the shell and fried. So if you're looking to buy some crawfish tails, here are tips to help you buy them.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Scan the web to buy frozen crawfish tails. Crawfish is a huge cuisine in the South, as it is a Southern specialty. So you'd do well to buy from the people who know fish and farm them. There are some great companies like Crawfishcoofcentralflainc.com or louisianacajun.com where you can buy frozen crawfish tails to be shipped right to your door.

  2. Step 2

    Get in touch with your local seafood store. While your seafood store may not keep frozen crawfish tails in stock because it is regional fare, stores like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's will special order the item.

  3. Step 3

    Contact the local seafood restaurants in your area. Some restaurants will sell direct to the consumer upon a special request. This is a great idea if you are having a party where you will be buying in bulk. Because you are buying from an entity that usually makes their money elsewhere, you may get a better deal than buying from a seafood or grocery store.

  4. Step 4

    Visit your local Costco or Sam's Club. The big, giant, "buy-in-bulk" stores are famous for their endless frozen food sections. Because they have the space, they are more apt to carry specialty-frozen items than your local grocery store. Call ahead before heading down to make sure they have frozen crawfish tails in stock.
