my wife has crabs

[2thDoc]

took the kids crabbing. stopped keeping them after about a dozen. steamed em and ate em but wifey sat there drinking beer and picking the leftovers. I would say I have a solid 1.5 cups of pure, unadulterated crab meat.

crab cakes? kinda boring. she crab soup? tempting. what else do you cheftains (my word) think I could whip up?

[Lowcountry Boy]

They make a cream for that.

Nothing boring about good crabcakes, a little dijon cream sauce. Mmmm.

Not much better than lump crab coming from someone elses hard work...maybe going to an oyster roast with someone who doesn't like oysters but likes to shuck.

You could do a crab stuffed flounder as well.
