The Making of a Crab Feast

Preparing the live box -- crabs have to have a place to live until you catch enough for a feast!














Hauling in the catch -- we bait our traps with fish that Shawn catches off the dock.















Emptying the traps into the live box -- not quite as extreme as they make it seem on the Discovery channel!













Maryland blue crab.


















Hauling in the live box -- Tropical Storm Barry makes it *feel* (almost) like Deadliest Catch!



















Surveying the catch -- definitely enough for dinner.

















Calming the crabs in an ice bath makes them a lot easier to transfer to the steamer.












Shawn demonstrates proper crab handling technique.














Steamed in a bath of Natty Boh (beer from the "Land of Pleasant Living!") and Old Bay.














Enjoy!
