I always love to add a few artichokes and a bag or 2 of Brussels sprouts.
Never had those in with the boil, but I love both veggies and I bet they would go great in there.

heres what i do. add enough water to pot to submurge the crawfish and all veggies. add cut up lemons, garlic, corn, taters, and onions, powered crawfish boil and if u have it add liquid crab boil. bring to boil and boil taters for 5 minutes then add crawfish. when the water comes back to a boil time it for 8 minutes. shut fire off and let set for 3-5 minutes. if u gunna add shrimp add them with 5 minutes left to boil crawfish. shrimp need 3 minutes to boil. if u gunna add sausage do that with about 5 minutes left in the boil also. for a dip we love this, mix 75% mayo and 25% ketchup. chop a purple onion up real fine. add this to mayo and then add zatarans or tony chacheries seasoning to it. mix it all together and let set in fridge for a few hours before u ready to eat. it lets the onion flavor get mixed in. i hope u enjoy.
