Earlier this month, News 2 launched the WBRZ Crawfish Price Index to track the average price for a pound of boiled crawfish in the Baton Rouge area.

The average price is drawn from a survey of 10 locations submitted by WBRZ viewers through social media earlier this year. WBRZ’s Crawfish Price Index will be updated every Friday during Lent with new data.

The survey is intended to show how prices are changing over time rather than a complete record of every price in the Baton Rouge area.

Of the 10 surveyed locations, Pit-N-Peel in Baton Rouge will keep its top spot as the cheapest price per pound of crawfish. It is Pit-N-Peel’s third week in a row to claim the cheapest price.
