I usually do mine in plain water, then into an Ice chest where they're topped with a little homemade dry boil and Tony's mix. Close the chest and let them steam for a bit to lock in the spice and flavor. We serve with a few dipping sauces, but the crowd favorite is always Cane's sauce. Second would be a catsup and ranch mix.

My method works well for me. Crawfish are juicy, peel easy, and have good flavor. Fill pot halfway, get to rolling boil and add 3/4 of a big jar of cajunland seasoning. Also add a cup or so of salt since the seasoning has salt in it. Cut about 8 lemons, add some bay leaves. Then add potatoes, sliced in half garlic and boil for 15 min. Then with it boiling add my crawfish and sausage. Once it starts boiling again, I time it for 6 minutes and shut the burner off. Take the cover off, spray the sides, add a pack of frozen corn and let it soak stirring occasionally. I don't really go by time anymore when I think they are done. The crawfish will sink when ready to eat. I then pour on table and they come out good.
