Ey, always love me some blue crab, don't see any seasoning though, no old bay or J.O #2?

Also I would still be hungry with only 4, hope you had something to pair them with.

Either way nice catch man.

Since this is a thread about crabs, has anyone here ever had Coconut Crab?
From what I've heard, they can be found anywhere in the Pacific Islands, can be as big as 10 lbs, and are apparently deeelicious.
Would anyone know how one would acquire one, especially someone who lives on the East US Coast?

Never tried them steamed. What's the difference?

I suggest grilled, but try the different ways of cooking them yourself then you'll notice the difference.

Generally speaking, one doesn't want to be noticed by a shadow battle crab, unless your intent is to kill it.

Is that Babylon 5 bullshit? What a terrible series. Except for Londo, who was a pretty cool character.

They're less for eating, more for inspiring abject terror when they knock over your garbage cans at 2 in the morning and sever your pet and/or child's leg with their oversized claws.

They are definitely eaten by locals. I've had it once in a tokyo fish market and it tastes like really buttery white fish.

Star Trek stinks. Farscape was alright. Babylon 5 tried too hard to be smart, and so was overwritten. Every little theme and concept is overtly explained in lengthy expository dialogue. The first rule of writing is show, don't tell.

Possession of a small crab is a felony in the United States.
