I've been asked by everyone since moving here if I've had blue crabs yet. I finally stopped alongside the road and got some along with a lesson in cracking them from a very nice lady. If you are ever in Southern Maryland in Brandywine on the 301 and see a sign for crabs, stop!
I have to say getting them out of the bag and into the pot was scary. I'm sure they couldn't really hurt, but I wasn't about to find out. I wish I'd taken a picture of them uncooked because they are such a pretty blue color, but see last sentence as to why. They were lovely and delicious except for Parker's tantrum. I only got to eat two! The rest are in the fridge waiting for me.
