Crab pictures from Mattamuskeet

[horsefly]

I will try this one more time and hopefully it will work. I gotta say if it does work, lots of kudos for someone named Nick who visited the site and wanted pics. Now these pics are couple of weeks old mind you. But you can get the general idea of the size and quality of crabs. Not a single whitey in the bunch and as some of the guys from around York River,Va "NO TIN CRABS"  Thanks for looking and I do have some 4-6 week old pics from another trip down there that if I can resize I will upload them too.

  Now, that's how you season crabs.  Good Job!!!

[horsefly]

Oh heck 69 thats not alot, right before they (the crabs) finish cooking say the last 15 min. I add a little more! Now if I have my in-laws come over I have to use less. Bunch of whimps!!! I go to Sams Club and get the mega bottle of Old Bay, thats if I'm not in the DC/Balt area to pick up a case of JO or Harbor Spice crab season.

No need to actually go there:

From the homepage: All items on their website are in stock in the store and available for shipping.

I am not associated with them, but only eat their #1 spice on my crabs and shrimp. We buy 25 pounds at a time to make it worthwhile.

hey man im from baltimore and i gotta nice season for u to make...considering i worked up here for 4 years at a crab house(baltimore style)....take the old bay u get from sams club...mix it with a buncha rock salt, ground yellow mustard(touch of), and crushed red peppers(a little bit)..when u steam em put a nice amount of vinegar and beer on the bottom of that pot and u will have great tasting crabs in no time..btw where is mattamuskeet? i go to outer banks every year on vacation and crab at emeral isle-we catch a lot of crabs but they seem to be all pretty small.

It is about 3 hours away.

Your limit is 12 per person per day.

3 hrs running and NO traffic on a Sunday!  1 dz per person is pretty fair you gotta admit. I take the wife and 2 kids down there so it's no problem getting 4dz usually jumbos. It's enough with their size to make it a meal and some!
