grilling crabs ?

[Capt. Dale]

I have a recipe for softcrabs on the grill. Get your grill hot and be sure to clean the grates. I then put some oil onto a folded paper towel and rub it on the grates. This is so the crabs won't stick. I season my soft crabs with a little lemon-garlic pepper and a dash or two of old bay and place them on the grill over med-low heat. I then mix 1tlbs of the lemon-garlic pepper and old bay with 3 tlbs of melted, lightly salted, butter. Baste the softcrabs with the mixture each time you turn the crabs. When the crabs are all dut done, I lift each tip of the topshell and add a small dab of boursin cheese, then put tip back down. After 2 more minutes, I take them off and serve them on a potato roll with tobasco infused mayo along with fresh sliced tomato. Talk about GOOD!!!! Enjoy!!

Rob,
I've used boursin cheese on grilled tomato's your recipe sounds tasty.
Thanks
Always looking for something new and different.
I hope someone will grill some crabs up Sunday.
What do you say Davey Boy or Gary!

I have to laugh at some of the replys to my soft crab recipe!! I get 20 dozen soft crabs each year from down below and eat them in more ways that you can imagine. I LOVE softcrabs, but for some boob to come on here and tell me I can't taste the crab is just crazy. I love them dredged in house autry with a dash of old bay and pan fried in butter (actually my favorite way of eating them) but I also like to experiment with food and create new flavors and taste. Eat um how ya want, I really don't care, but don't throw someone under the bus because they can step outside of their circle!!

Eat on my brothers!!!

Huh What?? It was a joke. It sounded like you where making a something and adding crab as a side ingredient. I am a boob though, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Apparently there are some other boobs on here that agree with me though. I eat seafood for the taste of seafood. That is just me and the way I do it. My comment was apparently too sharp for your thin skin. So I'm sorry. :-(

Great Thread....Keep them recipies comming..my fav. soft shell recipie is as follows and supper simple...two pads butter in the bottom of a pan, put the soft crab on, take 1/2 a lemon and squeeze it on top...light dusting of old bay/jo....flip...little more lemmon/old bay....then ummmmmmmmmmmm. Need to go stock up on softies before they all disapear for the year.

Anybody selling them by the dozen in the Elkton, Chesapeake City, Georgetown area? I know a guy on the delaware side who shed's them, but been looking for a guy on the other side of the peninsula.

Dale,

Norm has a Grillmaster to work the grill. He isnt a TFer, so lets all thank him with a tip. I intend to. Workin that grill for 4-6 hours is tough. He deserves out thanks monetarily.
He may happily try to cook them.
