Crawfish boil help

Dan in Lafayette said

I'd take it one step farther and not add the sausage at all. Why throw sausage in the boil at all? It loses all its flavor and tastes like crap. I would grill it too and serve it as an appetizer. Why ruin good sausage by boiling it? It's a waste of money.

Hey to each his own but I personally love the sausage. I don't find it makes it oily at all and I love the flavor. I find that the cheaper or plainer sausage works best. I like to use Manda or Double D just regular or green onion smoked sausage. I find when I use the Richard's or Savoie's sausage it comes out different as those sausages have more spice and flavor already in it. What is also really good is some Deer sausage. Really brings out the flavor.

I usually put my sausage in at the very end either with the crawfish or right back when the crawfish and everything else is brought back to a boil. It's already cooked as it is smoked so if just needs to heat up and soak up the flavor. I especially love the sausage the next day as a poboy. Or even sliced up with some eggs. C'est bon!!!
