I've seen the steam method requiring two pots.

One with an 1" of water and dirty crawfish

One rolling boil as usual with all the fixins.

Steam crawfish in pot 1 until steam comes out of the lid.

Cut off

Dump pot 1 into pot 2 after rolling boil and cut flame off and let soak for 30 minutes or something like that.

Weird as shite, tasted the same, yet they were very clean from the pot 1 steam.

Technically not a boil, more of a steam, but my dad used to do 3-4 lbs at a time in a big double chicken roaster: three or four bunches of green onions, chopped, and a bottle of white wine, plus the crawfish. Bring to a boil, cover tightly. Absolutely freakin' delicious. Why we haven't done this again in years, I don't know. I'm gonna go call him about it right now.
