Last week, hubby got to go out crabbing with his brother and brought home 4 nice big crabs for us. Now I have never really torn a whole crab apart, but it actually wasn’t too hard. I got a good amount of yummy buttery meat and we were able to share some of the crab with family.

Oh. My. Goodness! That looks soooo delicious. I remember when I used to live in the south, my uncle would go ’round the corner an’ buy up a whole bunch ‘uh crabs an’ we would sit on the back porch an’ feast on crab. Oh, how I Do miss those times.
Even the picture looked edible! Makes me want to go buy some crab meat, but alas, we do not live in very good crab meat country. Thanks for sharing though.
That sounds really good! Definitely want to try it!
This seems really delicious. Yummy..mouth watering…Gonna make it for the family. It seems they will love it very much.
Gorgeous food photo – yum!
Gosh, your post reminds me how much I miss going crabbing. Used to float around near the San Juan Islands reading a book and then pulling the crab trap up after a few chapters to see if we’d caught anything.
