Go ahead, tuck that napkin into the collar of your shirt because the annual Southern-inspired event is returning to the midtown brewery.
FireTruck Brewing Company is planning to turn up the heat with Tucson Mardi Gras during its Crawfish Boil from 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Saturday, March 26.
All you’ve got to do is follow your nose to the brewery. It’s the fifth year FireTruck Brewing has allowed the smell of Cajun seasonings to fill the parking lot at Grant and Swan Road, and — like previous years — the live crawfish will be flown in from New Orleans, Louisiana.
Tickets are $20 per person and you’ll need to select which time you’d like to visit the brewery. Also, there’s an option to get the meal to-go.
Each ticket includes one pound of Louisiana crawfish boiled with garlic, onion, and creole seasoning. Sides of potatoes, corn, Cajun Dirty Rice, and Andouille sausage are included, too.
Keep in mind that all tickets need to be purchased in advance because they will not be selling any on-location at the brewery on Grant Road.
FireTruck Brewing Company is located at 4746 E. Grant Rd. For more information, visit eventbrite.com or follow FireTruck Brewing on Facebook.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
