My secret weapon is "what questions do you think I should have asked?".
Not as a cop out, but something to follow your other questions with. A good interviewer will point you toward some of the company workings you wouldn't have thought to ask about. And if they're evasive it's a red flag you can use to consider their offer.
I like this kind of simple question. It often reveals a lot. Something I've done in the past is to ask "what's the best thing about working for this company?" and after they answer that I ask "what's the worst thing about working for this company?"
I've found being direct like that can often get some useful information.
