Crawfish and corn chowder is my dad’s favorite dish to make and eat. It’s rich, decadent, and will be begging you back for a second bowl. Louisiana crawfish tails are our favorite for this recipe but the dish works equally well with shrimp and/or crab meat. It's the perfect soul-warming recipe to finish off a cold day on the water or in the blind.
