Blue Crab Handling and Preparation:
The steamed blue crabs we ship are caught daily, steamed right off the boat, then shipped directly to you. The crabs are packaged in a sryrofome cooler with gel packs frozen at sub-zero temperatures. This means you can eat and enjoy your fresh crabs right out of the box. Be sure to refrigerate or prepare your crabs to eat upon receiving your order. Some people prefer to eat their crabs cold while others like them hot. Here's a few suggestions on re-heating your fresh Maryland Crabs...
-
Re-steaming is the best way to reheat your crabs without any taste lose while keeping the crab meat moist and delicious. First start with a steaming or boiling pot with rack to keep crabs above the boiling water. Add one part water, one part viniger, and one part beer so your mixture is just below the boiling rack. Bring the liquid to a full boil. Then layer your crabs inside the pot adding JO Seasoning, Old Bay, and salt if desired for more flavor. Cover and re-steam your crabs for 5-8 minutes. Be sure not to overcook and enjoy!
-
You may reheat the crabs by placing them in the oven at 375 degrees F for approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
-
You can also reheat your crabs by placing them in the microwave covered by damp paper towels for one or two minutes.
-
If you are combining crab with a backyard barbeque, you might try placing the crabs directly on the grill. Don't over cook!
Once your crabs are prepared gather some newspapers, crab knives, crab mallets, seasoning, vinegar, butter, bowls, beer and refreshments. Cover your table in several layers of newspaper for quick and easy cleanup. Dump your crabs in the middle of the table, then gather your family and friends. Just hurry up and grab some before they're gone!
