Love this video! My mom was born and raised in MD and we moved to Texas when I was 11, so I started life learning how to catch, cook, and clean and eat crabs. We didn’t have a boat or the fancy gear y’all used, just a string with (usually) a piece of bologna tied to the end lol. And yes, she definitely steamed them using Old Bay seasoning. I was happy to see that the guy cleaned them the same way I was taught. Such fun going crabbing with my mom then having a “crab feast” for dinner! If there were any left, we kids cleaned and picked out the meat and she’d make crab soup for the next night’s dinner.

[@kevinroberts9580]

When I was growing up in Fort Myers, Florida, we used to go down and fish for crabs with chicken Gizards on our hooks. When you see your fishing line that is loose ...getting tight, you reel it up slow and they don't let go. Already have your dip net in the water and net them and put them in your bucket.

[@johnypintura]

Keep healing Robert! We look forward to your videos. Plus I wanna go fishing with you!

[@Uncle2kk]

Great video Robert! I grew-up in western-MD and was introduced to "pickin crabs" at a very young age. We typically got together with our extended family one time during each summer and had a wonderful family day of crabs, BBQ, games, and beer. However, I've never went crabbing. This video has me promising myself that next summer will not pass without me figuring out a way to go crabbing. Thanks Robert! Also, I'm praying for you and your family, and for your continued recovery. Peace

[@mawmawvee]

Me, too, only I learned to pick and love blue crabs in VA, which is along the DelMarVa Peninsula. Best times of my entire young life, visiting with Mom to see her whole family. I loved those crab boils and then we'd flag down the guys in the watermelon truck to get delicious watermelons for dessert. I grew up in NJ and NJ had some delicious blue crabs, too.

Hi Robert, My name is Pete I"m from cajun country la. First time commenter. I"m 70 yrs old, When I was a kid all of the old fisherman crabbed using that same method its been around for 100 + yrs. brought back some fond memories. Love ur show , keep up the good work. PS. Sorry Louisiana boils are the best.

I’m 58. I’m just now Beginning to enjoy them love your videos, man. Prayers for you and your family.

[@mastergunnerysgt1258]

I hope you love seeing of something that is new and old at the same time. For us old water men eat every thing but the devil and the face pouch of the crab. For this was the way of the old Indians that lived on the Chesapeake many years ago. But us old timers adapted there way of life many years from them, that taught us many things of how to get the best out of a crab for nutritious values. For some of us do the same thing today.

This is absolutely awesome I love crabs I crap my whole life in Texas and I'm now about to be 45 years old I absolutely love your channel I've been praying for you ever since I started watching it and since you had The strokes I look forward to watching your videos all the time I personally like my crabs pre-cleaned before I boil them in Louisiana Crab boil but that's just me and how I like them I do have friends like steamed crabs like maryland-style but I prefer mine cajun-style boiled but pre-cleaned with the shell taken off not saying that I will not eat crabs that are cooked maryland-style or that our whole lives when you cook them I will eat them like that I just prefer mine when I cook them shell off and clean and no I don't eat what they so-called the butter that's in the side of the shells the stuff that is in the middle is the guts and no thank you I would rather not

[@jameskam4408]

When I was a teenager, there was a restaurant in Sabine Pass, Texas. They had all you can eat BBQ crabs. They would take the shell, lungs, guts, bottom plate, and mouth off and bury them in their own BBQ/cajun seasoning and then deep fry them. By far the best crabs I've ever had.

We crabbed for the first time 2 weeks ago. My oldest granddaughter stayed in the cabin that we rented. We caught 1 whole crab that was big enough that first day. We were in a campground off their docks that had a LOT of babies. My granddaughter told us that we needed to take that crab straight back cause he's our friend!!! I cooked him up to let everyone in my family get a bit of a taste, since they'd never had them. The next night, we caught 5. She caught the 1st one and the biggest. I asked her if she wanted to throw it back (like that would have happened, LOL), and she said, NO, I caught him and we're going to eat him!!!! What a difference a day makes, LOL.The last day of our trip, we bought a bushel, lol. We all LOVED crabbing and it will become a part of our lives going forward.

Its the same for shrimp guys. Vinegar+Beer+Old Bay & steam. Thats traditional Maryland Style- You could use whatever seasoning you wish tho.. I've not heard or seen the corn or sausage being cooked together. If you go to a place that's how you can eat or some joint that's normally served as a side/filler.

[@ilexopaca437]

Marylanders do not dabble in the butter. I grew up in Jersey where my grandfather taught us how to "trot-line" without a boat - when we were little ones. He steamed them and we ate them with butter. Exquisite. So, I get the Pennsy and Florida thing. I moved to Maryland 30 years ago and I haven't looked back... Steamed blues, seasoned, corn, beer, potato salad, donuts, more crabs, more beer. And yes, Marylanders eat the mustard, and soft shell... not for me but I'm not a native! Respect. I think a Louisiana crab boil looks like allot of fun!

💯🎯 agree with Robert.. got to clean them before they are cooked. In NJ we clean steam or boil then garlic olive oil S&P “ garlic crabs” . We also use drop lines with a chicken thigh. They are cleaned alive in the dock. Also Old Bay overwhelms the crab flavor IMO.

[@777Dorado]

Yeah.. I agree you either have to go big on the Old Bay or leave it out, That's why I go with Zatarain's and really ease up on it, love the G&EVO S&P I also throw in some shallots.

Jimmy's was also a liquor store with a drive in window .

[@randyhandy6437]

Finally you get serious about crabs and a professional waterman doesn't use chicken necks, that use to be a insult. When I worked on a oyster boat off Kent island. If they called you a chicken necker it was time to fight. Yes the Chesapeake Bay blue crab is the sweetest crab in the world they say it has something to do with all the Marsh Grass along the bay, but you have to be a true connoisseur in order to taste it. And steaming is a thousand times better than boiling . Especially with that salt rock based seasoning. But you're definitely on the right track keep up the good work you guys might have us beat with the weather but you don't have us beat with the taste. Enjoy your shows By the way professional crabbers use salt eel on a trout line. Do you have any idea how expensive chicken is ? And we always ate the mustard when it's warm. You have to try our soft shell claims. Claim bake potatoes onions kielbasa. Just make sure you soak them in some cornmeal first so they spit the mud out best steamed clams in the world.

[@tymesho]

Robert: CORN ON THE BBQ~ Partially open husks and soak ears WITH HUSKS ON in salt water for 20 minutes. BBQ on low heat~15-20 minutes. DON'T OVERCOOK! The singed husks will impart a smokey flavor you've probably never tasted. CRABS: STEAM ONLY! Boiling steals flavor AND nutrients, and it's faster! I fell off my chair when you said you never leave the husks on, that's like throwing away the LOVE!

[@phillipjohnson1234]

#1 This is the best content on You Tube, bar none. #2 I do like the crab mustard and lobster tamally. Yes, I know it is the digestive organ most similar to a liver combined with pancreas.

I live in Deale, MD and though not born in MD I have fully adopted crabbing as an amazing summer/fall passtime. I swear by the steam with beer/water/vinegar, but I add a few bay leaves and some JO2 to the broth. Glad you got up to MD and were able to experience running a trot line!
