I think crab is my favorite food in the world - trumps pizza and chocolate by miles LOL. Lobster runs a close second.

So this is very sad news, I was really looking forward to a night of pigging out on it soon.

feels like eating crickets ( or what I imagine eating crickets to be like)

Chocolate covered crickets are better than that. More Crunch. Softshell crab often chews like eating beef connective tissue, which I also do not like to do.

Wow, that's an incredible ban. I had heard it might ease up. Tons of people plan crab feeds, holiday dinners, etc. Sheeyit. Just have to pay more for imports I guess.

It is a serious kick in the nuts for the local Fishermen. It may yet be reduced depending on what happens with the weather.

I had dungeness crab at Dead Fish in Crockett last night, it was delish. They said they get all of theirs from Alaska. We'll see! :laughing

I fucking love crabs. I am from MD, and we take that shit seriously. You guys complaining about work vs reward have never eaten crabs properly, and if you are bitching about dungeness well you're just wrong. Try sitting down to pile of blue crabs and tell how much it sucks.

First if you are leaving meat in the crab you haven't learned to properly pick a crab.

Second if crabs are properly cooked and you know what you're doing there are no tools required besides your hands.

Third, eating crabs is not a meal. It is a long feast done with friends, beer, and no particular time table.

You drink, and BS, and eat, and get messy not until you're full but until you are done. Your hands are cut and stinging from the old bay, and the party is over.

:x

Oh and I don't really like soft shell crabs either.

Don't get him started, I've been his kitchen bitch a few times: think Gordon R. in a wheelchair on crack.

you probably shouldn't have had him hold the live crabs for you, while you got the pot ready :twofinger
