re: Who the hell dust their crawfish?

I had a friend from the West Bank and he said it’s not a crawfish boil without mushrooms and some pineapples in it. I never had mushrooms in it but doesn’t sound bad to go with corn and potatoes but I don’t know about the pineapples.

I’m going to have corn, potatoes, mushrooms and sausage in all of my crawfish boils. Pineapple sounds terrible but I’ve never had it

First...no dusting. That's unnecessary if you season the water properly.
Second, never heard of pineapple but mushrooms are good. They are basically sponges like potatoes.
Third...years ago I had a guy tell me this trick he did with corn. Instead of using corn on the cob, get cans of corn and poke holes in the can and let soak once you turn the fire off. Instead of getting corn on the cob, you get flavored corn kernels you can eat with a fork.

Purge the shite out of the crawfish until you get clear water.
Frozen corn
Potatoes
Sausage
Button mushrooms (my favorite, juice bubbles after they soak)
Artichoke hearts
Garlic
Yellow onions
Season the shite out of the water, bring to a boil, drop everything in besides corn, bring back to a boil, shut off, drop frozen corn in (cools without diluting), soak 30 minutes.
Drain, put in ice chest, squeeze oranges on top, lightly sprinkle some salt, toss around, shut ice chest 5-10 minutes, serve.
And when I say lightly on the salt, I mean very lightly. I bet no one even discerns that I've done it, but as the chef, I can tell. Makes it a little more flavorful to have the lightly salty sweet on the outside.

Mushrooms are very common, in my experience.
We've thrown just about anything you possibly can into the pot for shits and giggles. Tortellini, edamame, sprouts, asparagus, hot dogs, carrots, sweet potatoes, etc.
We've scaled it down a lot, though. The sides barely get touched, and they're a pain to try to deal with afterwards.
