How to Eat a Crab Like a Pro | Food Skills

Digging into a crab can be an intimidating task for some.

Luckily, Fifi Clanton and Gwendolyn Woods—the dynamic duo behind Brooklyn's the Crabby Shack—are here to breakdown the crustacean cracking commandments for beginners. From the soft meat hidden inside the body, to the proper way to crack a claw, Clanton and Woods leave no shell unturned.

Respect for building a business from the ground up with your bare hands. The things we value most in life often do not come easy.

Step 1 drown it in butter. Step 2 tear it apart any way and drown it in more butter and eat. Step 3 repeat! Lol

Helpful video. I plan on eating crab still in the legs/claw for the first time today lol
I was asking myself "How do I get at the meat" So this helped. Prior I only had it in sushi.

Got some great ideas to switch up my crab game. I was hesitant about the boil method but boiling in beer and old bay legit.
