Neither.
Waste of time.

Kids want the hotdogs and they don't want them boiled in crawfish juice.

You're looking at it wrong. I like to add the distractions...Leaves more crawfish to eat. I add sausage and mushrooms every time.

Onions go in first with the potatoes and corn


frozen corn is my last step toss it in after the boil and use it like ice

I use the little pearl onions. I don't peel them. you don't really have to. I enjoy these little things just as much as the crawfish.

Cut onions in quarters, wrap in foil with butter and seasoning, then boil.

Hot dogs? C'mon man. If you're going to do that add some decent sausage. I did venicen sausage one time and it came out great

How does everybody boil their onions? Do you peel them then throw them in loose? Do you just drop the mesh bag they come in straight into the boil? Or do you peel them(the outer layer) and place them into a boil bag? What is everybody's technique with hotdogs? When do you put them in? Do you out them in loosely or in a boil bag?

Peel the outer layer on the onions. I've just thrown them in when being lazy though. And garlic bulbs. Just throw the hot dogs in. They really are damn good in crawfish boil. I like them better than sausage. Mushrooms are a good addition too, but those sumbitch's will soak up some heat!!! Have tried artichokes. Meh, I'll pass on those.

Hot dogs are for kids, and they love them boiled. Surprised to see so many people turning their nose up at hotdogs in a boil.

I like them in it also. They're cheap and easy to just drop in when you cut the heat.
