When to add each side to crawfish boil

I do potatoes, garlic and sausage first. Mushrooms when I add the crawfish and frozen corn when the crawfish come to a boil.

A lot of people add the corn once they cut the fire but I didn’t care for it that way.

Potatoes first, 4 minutes later everything else. 11 minutes later dump the bugs in. Perfectly cooked sides everytime.

Potatoes and garlic = 15 min to cook in rolling boil
All other = 5 min to cook in rolling boil

Potatoes and garlic at the start

Sausage, corn, and mushrooms at the soak when you cut the heat off.

I boil all my sides first.

I light the fire.

Dump inHalf jug of regular zatarains powder, potatoes (I cut them in half), carrots, garlic, onions. Once that gets to a boil I let it go for 15 minutes. Then i throw in mushrooms, sausage, hot dogs and frozen corn in with the other stuff and let it go for another 10 minutes.

Once that is done I pull it all out. Add the other half jug, bring to a boil and do the crawfish. Bring to a boil same let them go 3 minutes. Cut the fire and let them soak.

I add the potatoes early on because I find it takes them longer to get soft.

I haven't found a difference when adding anythign else.

I drop pretty much the rest of it with the crawfish.
