Man...if you are really serious I will come show you. Crawfish a pretty easy to boil...yet so many people have different ways to cook them.
Just rinse them until the water runs clear...about 3 times. There is NO need for salt...it just tourcher's them
I personally HATE liquid boil of any brand. I use LA Fish Fry Crab Boil in a bag .
Filling the pot half was is about right. No additional salt is needed.
There can NEVER be enough lemon
Add your potatoes 10 minutes before you add your crawfish and you will be fine
I add my lemons, onions and garlic to my seafood boil seasoning and let boil for 15 minutes before adding the potatoes.
That is about right...later in the season you should boil for a few minutes longer when the crawfish's shell gets harder.
NEVER COVER! Throw the lid away (only use to bring water to the original boil). I personally put the corn in after the crawfish have been soaking for 15 minutes (if I remember)!

I salt and soak 1 sack of crawfish only once. I will spray with water and drain a couple of times.

Fill the pot halfway with water and add 1 large container of zatterains crawfish boil, 1 small jar of liquid pro boil and roughly a cup of salt.

Then I add my mushrooms, onions, garlic and sausage and let boil for 2 minutes.

I add the crawfish and wait for them to come to a boil. Once a solid rolling boil has substantiated I stir once and cut the heat.

I add the frozen corn and put the lid on to soak for 20-30 minutes.
