from the other thread:
I usually go:
lemon
corn
new potatoes
head of garlic
onion
once I'm done, I'll drop in some andouille then drain a can of green beans and let it sink to the bottom and soak for a bit. I don't put the sausage in with the bugs cause it makes them kinda greasy feeling.
that's as "fancy" as I get. throwing too much shite in there is just pointless and excessive IMO.

these Mexican cats I've had boils with a couple times throw pineapples in. come out good
Posted on 2/23/15 at 4:35 pm to SuperSaint
I love the little pearl onions.
Posted on 2/23/15 at 4:36 pm to SuperSaint
Every once in awhile ill throw some artichokes in there. Awesome.
Posted on 2/23/15 at 4:38 pm to SuperSaint
If you arnt eating the garlic youre missing out. We put in whatever we feel like putting in. Any believe that there should be a limit on what you can drop in the pot is asinine. You have a pot full of seasoned boiling water, why the frick not? Some of my favorite not so common items inpo:
A chicken
Artichoke
Asparagus
Broccoli
Cauliflour
Hot dogs
Mushrooms
Cocktail wieners
Carrots
Onions

You hating on a pineapple in the boil? That shite's money.

You can make some fine leftovers with the seasoned water. New potatoes from a boil roasted the next day are dynamite. Creamy and delicious.
Put that sausage in and then give it a hit on the grill for a little while. Tastes good either way. Makes a tasty hot sausage poboy, too.

need to come pick you up next time dagurun is cooking up some bugs.
last year my wife and i ate about 20lbs each..those nashville fancy men & women would come pick one or two bugs out and fuss with them for about 10 minutes each..then finally dig a little meat out and politely excuse themselves.
it was the opposite of what i experience in lousiana.
we ate so many bugs we took a nap then went back for 'second' bugs.

I eat about 2 heads of garlic on my own. Best part imo
Eat a crawfish, while in your mouth, take a nibble of sausage, then squeeze a garlic clove in your mouth

If you really want to add a different kind of heat to a batch, cut up a bunch of habaneros, jalapeños, and serranoes and toss them in there. I like doing this for one batch and get many compliments on it.
