Right out of the shell. If they are steamed properly in Old Bay they are good to go.

I am a dipper and one who sometimes eats the crab right out of the shell with nothing else. Had a friend years ago that would go up to Alaska and work on those crab ships. One year he brought back a bunch of king crab and we had one heck of a party.

Crab shells everywhere. Inside and outside the house.

Dipper

Sadly, I can't afford lobster or crab...so have been buying the phoney stuff...Not as good, of course, but satisfies my expensive desires.

I was born in Baltimore but moved to Virginia in the 70’s. I still can’t get steamed crabs like they make ‘em in “Ball-mer”.

Some of my fondest childhood memories of crab feasts at my grandparents’ place on Rock Creek.

When I was in college, I threatened my mother that my wedding reception would be crabs and beer. She about had heart failure at that thought. If I ever re-marry, I just might have that crab feast/wedding reception.

Suggest stop steaming live animals, gorging yourselves, and adding even more fat to your waist lines.

Vegetarianism and Conservatism easily co-exist.

Living on the West coast I consume Dungeness crab. I love any way - right out of the shell when it is still hot, dipped in butter with lemon, seasoned mayo, made into crab cakes, in pasta, crab melts, crab enchiladas, hot crab dip with artichoke hearts, crab omelets, in cioppino, and on and on.

None of the above. I usually rinse it off with cold water and stand right there at the sink and eat it.

You’re making me hungry!!

Pull that backfin out and drag it through some more Old Bay. The crabmeat is an excellent way to convey the Old Bay to your mouth.

One can never have too much Old Bay. It’s good on everything but ice cream and aspirin.

Dipper, although I prefer crab in Maryland crab cakes

I recently returned from a liesurely trip up the Virginia side and then down the Maryland side of the Chesapeke Bay. We had crab every day and once, twice a day.

The best crab was in Reed, Virginia...... Soft shell crab smothered in chunk crab meat.
