Directions
Dungeness Dungeness Crabs With White Wine-Garlic, This is a fantastic recipe, stolen from the pages of Weber Grill If you are a lover of the Dungeness crab, you will love this Very easy to prepare , The butter-garlic-wine sauce was soo satisfying, I ate about a quarter of it just dipping bread into it before it even got on the crab I quadrupled the amount of garlic though, and doubled up on the wine I also added some veggies, boiled potatoes, corn and green beans and the sauce was amazing with everything I also used a broiler rather than a grill due to weather

to Kill Each Crab, Place It on Its Back and Hold It Down With a Large Cleaver. Use a Hammer to Tap the Top Edge of the Cleaver and Cut the Crab in Half Lengthwise All the Way Through. Remove and Discard the Dangling Tail Flaps and Mouth Parts. Turn the Crab Over. Pull Off and Discard the Top Shell. Remove and Discard the Gills. Rinse Each Half of the Crab Under Cold Running Water and Use Your Finger to Scoop Out and Discard the Dark Viscera. Slice Each Half Into Five Pieces by Cutting Between Each Leg and Through the Body. Using the Hammer Again (or a Nutcracker or Crab Cracker), Crack Each Section of Each Leg to Make Eating Easier After the Crabs Are Cooked. |
