The idea is to get a fast yet tasty crab dish without the sticky sauces that usually accompany these dishes.
The crab is still sweet crab tasting but gnawing on the shells gives a fantastic bunch of kick and flavours
Enjoy!

I try and steer clear of crabs, I mean I'm still trying to shake off the VD from yesterday, but I gotta admit, that looks pretty darn good. :thumbup:
 
I just had a craving for some crab yesterday, made some crab stuffed ABT's.

If I saw this yesterday, I'd probably would have made something like this, that looks awesome.
 
I'm always getting creative but this worked so well I wrote it out in my little black book and also posted it here for my brothers.
Don't hesitate if you love crab, seriously good recipe!
