Default Crawfish Boil Question

Been a while since I boiled crawfish, so I am looking for a guide to know how much vegetables to buy (potatoes, corn, onions, etc..). Boiling 150lbs - is there an easy formula like #lbs per person like there is for crawdads?

Don't forget the sausage, turkey necks, brussels sprouts, celery, elephant garlic, bok choy, and boudin. You gotta boil the boudin in a mesh bag though. No matter how hard you try to stop it, one is going to burst on you.

It's in your produce aisle. Try it in a boil. You'll like it. I throw it in after the fire is off and just soak it for about 15 mins. No need to cook it down. Just let it get some juices in it.
