Crabs - yummy :D

Tasty little things, but a bugger to peel.

I still can't get over what y'all southruners do to good seafood. Boiling is for potatoes. Crabs and shrimp are for STEAMING! Ugh.

Tasted good to me Karl. But as Woftam says, they are a mess to pickout.

Oh, Karl, I did batter and fry the claw meat, one pincher attached. :bigsmile:
