Ive had a whole artichoke and asparagus. Ive heard you can use pretty much any canned vegtable you like you just have to take the paper off, clean the can and punch holes in it. Never tried it though.

try drum or sheaphead fillets put them in stocking and throw in ty taste like crab meat when u take them out

Why would anyone want more than the crawfish, garlic and sausage??? No better eating than those 3 things!!!!!!!!!!!! The wife gets mad though, you tend to smell after eating 2 or 3 entire bulbs of garlic.

Drop them in the boiling water for a few minutes. Then when you drop the crawfish in the shells will crack and they soak up all the seasoning.

Place a dozen in a stocking have ready before you start the boil. When you turn the heat off drop these little jewels in the soak cycle. Pull out before you dump crayfish on the table. And Enjoy

I have recently eaten pineapples at a crawfish boil. They took wole pineapples, cut the green stem off, and poked holes all around it. When the crawfish start comming to a boil, they added them in, let boil and soak with crawfish. really was pretty good

Brussels sprouts, bologna log, cauliflower, pork chops, and lemon oil

chicken legs or thighs!

Try a gallon of orange juice or an orange punch,just add it after all your normal seasoning. You'll be surprised how good it is.

Sorry about your situation.


Pertaining to crab boil, I second the chicken breast and thighs comment.

Whole japalenos

i can't believe no-one said whole onions and celery!!! to be honest, anything thats edible will be great!!! my wife hates me, when we boil crawfish, because i eat so many onions!!! never tried it, but will, eggs!!!! i will boil them on the stove first and peel them! about 2 minutes before i turn the fire off on the crawfish, crabs or shrimp, i will put the eggs in a bag and put them in the old pot and let them boil some more!!! when you turn the fire off, let them soak with the crawfish or whatever!!! my wife will hate me even more!!!! onions and boiled eggs, whooa!!! the only thing that won't taste good, is the old kitchen sink!!!

We cook the small pearl onions. They are great. I also may try the eggs thing.

if you try the egg thing, b4 me, please post on here and let us know how they are!!! i know they will be great!!! do you put boiled eggs in a crawfish, shrimp or crab stew, some super great!!! if you don't and if you do next time, just make sure you put enuf eggs, so fights don't break out, over the eggs!!! just boil them first and peel them and when you throw you're crawfish or whatever in your pot, throw your boiled eggs in too!! man it hurts so good!!!

We quit putting the Crawfish, they too expensive.

Just eggs, vegetables, and sausages!!

Oranges and hotdogs

leave out the sausage, hotdogs, beef, etc. They make everything oily. Lemons, oranges, onions, celery, corn, then a bottle of lemon oil. After your traditional seasoning and salt.

We never cook Shrimp Stew without putting lots of eggs in it. Very good.

Tried the egg thing yesterday and they didnt soak up seasoning.They tasted just like a regular hard boiled egg.They were all cracked up from puttin crawfish in and stirrin and i even put them back in before the second sack went in.

i never did the egg thing before! what i will try is, boil the eggs on the stove first. peel them and put them in a boiling bag and put them in the pot a couple minutes while boiling and when you turn the fire off, let them soak just like the crawfish or whatever?? maybe someone that did that before can help us, thanks!!!!!

passthru69, you make a good point!! it all taste the same no matter what is boiled in the ole pot!!!! its all about the seasoning!! a pair of drawers would probably taste just as good as anything else?? just make sure they are new drawers not used!!!! but then again, that water and seasoning will probably kill any parasite and germ on planet earth!!!!!!!!!!!

Broccoli but do it first and go very light on they cayenne pepper because the broccoli sucks it up big time.
