the thing is - questions that are posted by a new guy are often ignored because they have been discussed many times

so I don't want someone new to think people are ignoring him - It's just the question has been answered many times before

You should make something like soup or sauce with cooked meat.I do crab cakes with cooked meat,make the crab cakes but dont cook them,shrink wrap them and they should be good for the Winter.I do not recomend freezing raw crabs.

  I freeze raw crabs all the time.Like I said only good for the sauce cause the meat DOES come mushy but the flavor is still there..There is nothing like a FRESH CRAB... Smiley

I have frozen half-cooked crabs for over 40 years.  Never had an issue !!!!

I re-steam frozen for 20 minutes and I have never seen anyone push them away.

Might give that a try. How long do they last. I will try a test run with a dozen and keep them in the freezer for a few weeks. I have keep raw crabs in the freezer but only for soups.

I freeze mine like Masspi.  I always have a couple dozen for superbowl Sunday.  Never had any complaints as the crabs tasted excellent.  I've been freezing crabs a long time.  I have never kept them past 5 months though.......

get real

Belacheat paid the HIGHEST FINE IN NFL HISTORY FOR CHEATING $500,000 AND THAT WAS THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED - HE WOULD HAVE GOT MORE IF THEY COULD. AND THEY LOST A FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK AND BELACHEAT SCREWED THE OWNER BY NOT TELLING HIM HE CHEATED FOR SEVEN YEARS

The first step in recovery is to accept and admit it.

 Grin

BTW - it ain't cheap talk--- it's reality --

and some people believe Adolf Hitler was a nice guy, didn't smoke, was well dressed, drank just a little, didn't curse and went early to bed and was courteous the ladies. A nice guy
