Contraband Crab

Limbs ripped off and shelled. Ok so I ate an obscenely ginormous pile of crab tonight and it was absolutely awesome. When they're this fresh the crab meat is sweet sweet sweet with an undertone of Atlantic sea-saltiness. And I love the soft stringy texture of the meat when you scrape them out of the shells... like crableg cheesestrings. Really, there's nothing better than hands-on eating and sucking out some juicy crabmeat. Soooo goooood.

Then into a giant pot of boiling salted water. This guy looks like he's choking, but I somehow felt no remorse as I watched them steep into the pot. No remorse. Just deliciousness.

Tossed into the trunk of the car Goodfellas style.

Ok so the crabs were abducted here at the Southside Smallboat Basin. Well actually they were given to us by some of the local fishermen who were supercool hardworking dudes. 25 lbs they gave us. Unbelievable.
