Cleaning Crayfish

Tasmanian cray, how to get the poo shooter out of the tail.
I have had a comment noting that this is a lobster, I agree. It is hard for me to change after calling them crayfish since I was a small child. It is similar to Abalone which we called Mutton fish for years.
Also see the video Cooking crayfish patties - • Cooking Crayfish Patties
Have a look at the Flathead cleaning and deboning video here.

[@mummabear991]

Awesome tutorial. Thanks so much

[@craddock619]

That is a lobster dude

[@e-surf]

We used to call them crayfish back in 1960. When it changed for marketing purposes many Tasmanians continued to call them crayfish.

[@rollbot]

Haha it's just terminology from different parts of the world.
I'd absolutely rather have a 4 -5 oz lobster tail than a 4-5 oz crayfish tail

That's not any Mudbug I've ever seen

lol

[@deanjericevic8912]

It would be much more effective using secateurs, especially with crays that are before sheading. For over 40 years of diving & catching my own; I have more than likely eaten more crayfish that most people have seen in their entire lifetimes.

[@e-surf]

Well done, a bit short though, been diving catching and eating for over 60 years now. probably thrown more back than you have seen. Potting for crays in the 1950S and 60S was ridiculous, couldn't get any more in the pot. Jockies falling off as the pots came up because they couldn't get in. Sorry mate couldn't resist.

Marketed as Southern Rock Lobster in USA originally know as crayfish in Tasmania.

[@jerryodom7358]

What’s funny about this is his crayfish are bigger than any Lobster Red Lobster sells..

[@angelitayourkonis2155]

An’t you a support to clean the poop line before you cook it? Because all you’re doing is cooking the poop line and as you said; it’s poison too eat it, so it’s better too cook the poop line instead of taken it out of the gray fish?

[@e-surf]

You may be right there but after many years of consumption and no poisonings the evidence does not support your assumptions. It seems that the quick boiling process seals the outside poop tube preventing contamination. I will keep your observation in mind though. I am all about trying to maintain the highest quality seafood. Thanks.

Fell asleep after 2 min

[@e-surf]

Need to do a bit of exercise, maybe walking that will keep you awake.

[@johngraves3170]

The crayfish looks nothing like a long gusta they have claws they look like a mini Maine Lobster

[@e-surf]

Main Lobster have massive claws. They market them in USA as Lobster but they are crayfish.

[@nitakate10]

I would have rinsed the yellow stuff seriously

[@e-surf]

Yeah, not really a fan of the mustard

[@debraharhold3392]

Isn 't that a lobster not a crayfish.

[@e-surf]

It is now called a lobster commercially but in Tasmania we have always called them crayfish, this lobster name changed in 1970's but most local cray-fishermen still call them crays as do I. They are caught in cray pots.

[@jcmate1692]

Slow vid and looks like meat is well overcooked and dry

[@e-surf]

Yeah true the ones freshly cooked are the best, this was only a display frozen lobster just for the demo
