Have any of you on the West Coast Dungeness Crab territory ever tried
grilling live crab??
Now and then one hears about this. I was recently reading the California
Seafood Cookbook which details the following. You freeze the crab enough to
kill it, or at least anesthetize it. Then you take off the thick outer
shell, and clean the inside,
just as you do a steamed crab. Cut the remaining body and claw into
"drumstick like pieces" and cook these on a grill.
Has anyone tried this or any other technique? I have heard about cooking
live crab in a wok. I know this is tough to address, butchering a live fish,
or anything live. I have a enough stress steaming a live crab.
Thanks for any thoughts and/or advice.
