Do you cook them the same as crawdad's.
-
Do you cook them the same as crawdad's.
Pretty much. Your seasoning goes into the water, you let it come to a boil, add your seafood, let it come to a rolling boil and cook appropriately, then let them soak in the flavor. For crabs I like to boil them around eight minutes and let them soak for about twenty.
The other stuff like onion, garlic, sausage, corn, potatoes... should be cooked separately with a light soaking or it will retain a lot of spice!

Was that off of Hwy1?
-
this late in the season, I was just wondering if they were still full?
-
They were pretty nice and fat Ted.
...JP
-
Oh Buddy I can smell them from here.......my favorite!
-
JP, I want to know where you launched from and crabed, I want to catch some this weekend!!!!!
-
My buddy Bailey took me. Its his spot. I'll need to ask permission to divulge the spot. If he says its okay, I'll PM you. Sorry, have to respect that.
...JP
-
understand completely!!!! Thanks
-
Ted, looks like we're going again this Saturday, Bailey & Schawee for certain. I may be included in this trip or not depending on whether Bailey filled my spot or not. He originally asked me to go but I wasn't certain what time the LSU game was. I was thinking it was at noon but now I see its at 7pm.
If we do as well as last time perhaps we could meet up and I'll be more than happy to hook you up with some. You in Denham Springs now, I forget?

next time i'm down, i'll wear a blindfold and do the dirty work if i get to eat some of the catch. :-) oh...and you have to bring your wife so i have someone to talk to while you guys are doing your guy thing.

Some of my fondest childhood memories are crabbing off mt Uncle Johns dock in Bayou Caddy MS. My cousins and I also have a tradition of going crabbing after any family wedding in New Orleans in Lake Pontchartrain. We call it "The Tastiest Catch".
Most people think it is the boiling water that kills them but actually it's the lemons. If you listen very carefully you can hear them scream when you put them in the pot, "Oh no not the lemons". You gotta listen close.
-
Man that reminds me of Crabbing with my parents in the Chesapeake bay when i was a kid. We would say up for 48 hours straight catching them from the piers. go home and cook them sunday after church and have a ball. one or two would always fight and get out of the pot in the kitchen. :evil: then the fight was on with my mom with a pair of tongs. may wish i had videos of that I would have a 100,000 from AFV on TV. :-P
