Soft-Shell Crab Recipe | How to cook Soft-Shell Crabs

[@h3ath3r22]

I just made this recipe and it was amazing!! I added a little Old Bay and served it over grits and drizzled some of the juice over the top! Can't wait to try this with shrimp too!

[@taminikaoutlaw1584]

Thanks for the grits idea with the soft shell crabs. 😀😋

[@toddhickox4757]

I love me some soft shell crabs! Am used to eating them fried but this looks like a great way to try them!!!!!!

[@LauricesKitchen2010]

My mom loves these. I have yet to try them this way, but I do love picking crabs. 😊 Thanks for sharing this. It looks scrumptious.

[@TheWolfePit]

Hope you can find some to cook for your mom and for you to try! Thanks for watching Laurice!

Larry, I skipped ahead of 15 other videos I should watch because I just HAD to see this recipe! Ms. Lulu and I are crazy about soft shell crabs! We have planned vacations around them, Virginia Beach, Myrtle Beach, and New Orleans! The only food that rivals them are New England tender sweet fried clams! I might have to order these to be shipped to me... but I can imagine how expensive the are. Thanks so much for the simple, succulent soft-shell crab recipe my friend! It knocked my socks off!!!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thank you John and I couldn't agree more about the sweet whole belly New England fried clams, so delicious! I work with Harbour House Crabs and have a promo code if you want to order some online You can get them shipped to your front door, just like these were to me! www.ilovecrabs.com/soft-shell-crabs/soft-shell-crabs-jumbo.html Use the code WP12 in the promo code for $12 off your first order if you decide to place one!! Soft shell crabs are expensive no matter where you get them unless you live on the Eastern Shore.

[@MusicLoverCT]

Excellent recipe! One variation on this is to flour egg, breadcrumb the crabs first, they pick up more of the amazing taste of the sauce this way.

[@protocolofficer2629]

My favorite sea food ever. I always looked forward to eating them whenever I was in Virginia or Maryland. Now, you can get them all over. As the years went by, I slowly developed an allergy to the iodine found in the soft carapace and the last time I had them, I swelled up like Howard Wallowitz when he ate peanuts. So, I have happy memories and envy anyone who makes and eats this marvelous recipe!😋. Sigh

[@TheWolfePit]

You literally made me laugh out loud about Howards allergy to peanuts!! LOL My wife is also allergic to most seafood, she can eat fish but that's it. Thanks for watching Colin!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Looks like a great soft shell recipe Larry! Brother, I love soft shell crabs! YUM!

[@TheWolfePit]

I love them too Rus, can't eat enough!! Thanks for watching!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Alla!

[@marie42ify]

This recipe looks wonderful Larry! I have seen the soft shell crabs at my local market but never knew how to prepare them. Thank you. I will give these a try :)

[@chophappy]

I love soft shell crabs but only ordered them never cooked them. This is great. Thanx for sharing!

[@MsKestrela]

A friend gave me some soft shell blue crabs yesterday, and I needed a recipe. I should have known you'd have one! The only way I've had them before is breaded or tempura, and since I eat low carb these days, that wouldn't work. Thank you!

[@BallisticBBQ]

Great cook Larry! We don't get soft-shell crabs here on the West Coast. I've had them once in a restaurant though. Great stuff!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Greg! Yeah but you guys get my second favorite crab, the dungeness!! I wish we could get those fresh over here too! LOL

[@SouthernCoastalCookingTM]

one of my all time favorite foods I really love this

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Joe! One of my favorites too! I'll have another version coming soon!

[@LindasPantry]

Omg I can't believe how good that looks!!!!!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Linda!!

[@BubbasGrub]

oh dear sweet baby easter bunny those look amazing!!

[@TheWolfePit]

LOL!! You funny man!! Stop by and see me on your way to Atlanta.....I'm only 12 hours away!! Thanks for watching Bubba!

[@therealbradleywebb3058]

Keep those seafood dishes coming Larry! Can't get enough seafood! Like you mentioned before, we could eat seafood everyday! 👍

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Bradley! I've been fortunate enough to start doing some videos for Harbour House Crabs and I'm getting the great LOCAL U.S. seafood free, otherwise I wouldn't be doing this many seafood videos! LOL The quality and price of the seafood in grocery stores around here is horrible!!

[@therealbradleywebb3058]

+TheWolfePit .......I know exactly what you mean! Just a few weeks ago I was craving some shrimp, so I go to Publix and found that the shrimp they had was frozen from Indonesia!! I politely passed!!! I want fresh gulf shrimp! 🍤🍤🍤. That's awesome that you have that connection with fresh seafood! Great job Larry!

[@SmokedReb]

Yeah Larry, I was excited when I saw that much garlic going in. looked delicious!

[@TheWolfePit]

Never enough garlic! Thanks for watching Brian!

[@terrysharing]

Larry, no soft shell crabs around this neck of the woods! I'm envious that is for sure. We actually had crab tonight for dinner but it was frozen parts from parts unknown. It was "good". I've never had softshell crab. Dorothy has, in restaurants and enjoyed it but it was always breaded and deep fried. Your version looks wonderful. I hope to try that one day.

[@TheWolfePit]

[@terrysharing]

Thanks Larry!

[@CookingwithHoney]

Yum Yum Yum... they look so good...ive never had them...thanks for sharing....

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Honey! Hope you give them a try!

[@hocussmokuskitchengrill113]

Ive always wondered what softshell was all about,and how to eatem! Also I'm hard of hearing and want to say your voice and set up make it really easy for me to hear your vids Larry! Thanks!!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thank you Greg I appreciate the feedback! I did the closed captioning with some videos but stopped because it was really time involved. But would that help with you being hard of hearing? If so I would definitely put the extra time in to make it easier for you and others who need it. Let me know!

[@bridgettholman4074]

I'm a new subscriber and I learn so much from his videos!

[@michaellmikeyymike]

that looks really good Larry. My wife family is from Baltimore so I'm familiar with soft shell crabs but I've never had them.

[@TheWolfePit]

Oh Mike you gotta give them a try at least once, definitely fried on a sandwich! Thanks for watching!

[@tomstestkitchen]

Looks really good Larry, I have never had soft-shell crabs.

[@TheWolfePit]

Definitely give them a try when you can Tom! Thanks for watching!

[@TessCooks4u]

Larry, it is a nice change not to see the crabs in a coating. They look amazing! Enjoyed.

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Tess! Yes I see a lot of people put a thick batter on soft shells and fry them and it ends up being more batter than crab!

[@handsomejohnjohn]

soft shell crab is the best. It's hard to find them. where did buy them?

[@grassburner]

Shell and all? Who'd a thunk? ----- A must try Wolfemiester. Thanks for the video!

[@TheWolfePit]

Yep the whole shebang! Thanks for watching!

[@29render]

Never had these...looks great!

[@TheWolfePit]

Gotta give them a try Matt! Thanks for watching!

[@ChefJohnPolitteItsOnlyFood]

Great job Larry

[@zoelynn69]

They look yummy thanks for the how to on how to eat them.

[@TheWolfePit]

You're welcome Zoe! Thank you for watching!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Soft shelled crab! YUM!!! That would make a killer poboy Larry! Stay cool brother!

[@TheWolfePit]

Those might be next..... ;-)

[@tom5256]

I was wondering how you ate them now I know I have never had them but I will probably try them if I get the chance to :)

[@TheWolfePit]

Yes, you simply eat the entire crab minus the parts I mentioned! Thanks for watching!

[@foodcookingrestaurants6945]

This is interesting I have only eaten the deep fried version, at Chinese yum cha, and a lacklustre attempt at home. Thanks for sharing this.

[@nothadnotbad]

wow! shell and all. is the shell rubbery?

[@JustinJamesXJS]

No, not at all.

[@ImjustKelly73]

I've never had them, but they sure look good! TFS Wolfe & hope y'all are having a great weekend :D

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Kelly! Hope you have a chance to give them a try sometime!!

[@ImjustKelly73]

***** Me 2! :D

[@CorneliusSneedley]

This looks really good, Larry. I've always wanted to try these, but I live on the wrong coast for blue crab. By the way, can donations be made using PayPal? I tried, but a credit card seems the only option.

[@RobinRDDavis]

Looks yummy 😋

[@TheWolfePit]

Thank you Robin!

[@leffteebeats5002]

what does it taste like

[@andrewhead2901]

Do you like crab with your parsley

[@TosTinManEasyCooking]

I've never had those but they'd be perfect for me! I love crab but I hardly ever eat it because it's too much for my arms trying to get it out of the shell!

[@TheWolfePit]

Jim I know what you mean, this past year picking crabs has gotten really difficult for me as well! Thanks for watching!

[@bitehungerback7554]

Looks so delicious!!

[@byronchandler5000]

Hi, Larry. Those crabs look fantastic. CookedByJulie and Julie Steindel would be amazed. How big is your request list, and what is your favorite way to grill? Have a good day, good buddy.

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Byron! I did a video on Moo Goo Gai Pan finally for you last night.....at least I think that is what you asked me to make, right?

[@PaiviProject]

Oh boy oh boy Someday I sure hope to taste those things. Yum ! :)

[@TheWolfePit]

I hope you do too!! Thanks for watching!!

[@PaiviProject]

***** Hey keep making and I will watch all ! :)

[@maravenu1512]

where can i buy soft shell crab chef?

[@TheWolfePit]

Hi Mara! If you don't have any fish markets near where you live you will need to probably order them online. I work with Harbour House Crabs and have a promo code if you want to order some online You can get them shipped to your front door, just like these were to me! www.ilovecrabs.com/soft-shell-crabs/soft-shell-crabs-jumbo.html Use the code WP12 in the promo code for $12 off your first order if you decide to place one!!

[@synicalxjackal]

How much garlic was that

[@stripymccatpuss]

Butter...Garlic....White wine...Lemon....Parsley.... All stops on the food train to great seafood.. Choo Choo

[@TheWolfePit]

Yeah buddy! Thanks Ross!

[@samsqwanchey]

Yes!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks Sam!

[@douglasbosso3560]

Damn Those look so tasty. Do you live in New England? I live in Missouri which is land locked, so it's hard to get quality seafood. I settle for canned crab most of the time.

[@douglasbosso3560]

I can get Fresh Prawns though, cause they're fresh water. Do you have any Prawn Recipes?

[@TheWolfePit]

I live in Virginia, but even where I live it's hard to get decent seafood. I work with Harbour House Crabs and have a promo code if you want to order some online You can get them shipped to your front door, just like these were to me! www.ilovecrabs.com/soft-shell-crabs/soft-shell-crabs-jumbo.html Use the code WP12 in the promo code for $12 off your first order if you decide to place one!!

[@douglasbosso3560]

Yeah sometimes I settle for frozen. My local Supermarket has Wild Salmon, Orange Roughy and stuff like that. It looks fresh but I don't know if its frozen or brought on a plane. I'm Making Some Sea Bass Tomorrow. I'll check out that Crab Shipping site.

[@BigMeatSunday]

Looks killer man, my favorite way to eat these lil buggers is in a spider roll :-) but I will have to try it like this it just too good to miss !

[@TheWolfePit]

I like them on a sammich too!! Thanks brother!

[@moparnut6933]

Just cooked these and they were slamming.

[@Booger500us]

Booger loves loves loves loves soft shell crabs

[@leopard7440]

yum

[@cghern75]

Damn that's good stuff!

[@maravenu1512]

ooooh delish!

[@TheWolfePit]

Thank you Mara!

[@lumpyq6385]

I see a Road trip in my future, Dam those looked good. Hey Larry I haven't forgot about you, I will FB you with an update.

[@TheWolfePit]

Steve, hope you get a chance to get some of these soft shells!!! Thanks!

[@SouthBayFamily]

Dang! This is awesome Hell yeah BO!!! Yeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

[@seven_hundred-seven_hundred]

Nice video... but I don't think I could get myself to eat the shell and claws of that bug...

[@TheWolfePit]

LOL I know what ya mean, but ya gotta give it a try at least once!

[@deanwilson4973]

Yeah better to eat a cow, pig, chicken right ! ?

[@ralphmcmahan2139]

Wish my Dad was still around I'd try that recipe just so he'd complain, "you know damn well we don't put no fancy wine and lemon and green stuff on our crabs what the hell is wrong with you?" pan-fried in oil til' almost black and served on wonder bread is the only way to eat soft shell crabs, as God intended. looks great to me though, love the channel ohh, and for those that have moved from Maryland eastern shore far far from crabs the afore mentioned Harbour House will be happy to air-mail you some. steamed or soft shell however you want them. not cheap but not like you do it every day. ask them to send some J.O. seasoning along too.

[@TheWolfePit]

Your father sounds a bit like my father! Their way was the only way!!! Thanks for the shout out to Harbour House! I work with them and have a promo code if you want to order some online You can get them shipped to your front door, just like these were to me! www.ilovecrabs.com/soft-shell-crabs/soft-shell-crabs-jumbo.html Use the code WP12 in the promo code for $12 off your first order if you decide to place one!!

[@ThatCooLDUD3]

[@TheWolfePit]

Thanks!

[@truth-seeker331]

He didn't let the underside cook it wasn't done

[@doublejbbq42]

candy from the bay

[@TheWolfePit]

Yeah buddy, you got that right Jerry! Thanks for watching!

[@Anonymoose]

I haven't had, or even seen, soft shell crab since literally the 70s! I remember them as quite a delicacy. Finding one this far away from The Bay would be nigh unto as likely as finding Donald Trump's real hair.

[@TheWolfePit]

John you should be able to find them easily in Florida. If not you can find them on your front door!

[@evanleo7633]

i didn't even know crab shell is edible

[@spfjpm]

evan leo , it's only edible once the crab sheds its shell , only when in season.
