Trying to buy crab fingers from Tony's for a party. Anyone know how many fingers are in a pound?

Probably about 30 or so, depending on the size.

Likely the most uneconomical food item in existence. I still buy em about twice a year because I have a great marinated and sautéed version, both of which I love.

It does depend in size, but I've always had a good many more than thirty that were a good size. A lot fits tightly in those containers.

ETA: I remember Chez Francois would tell me there were about 30, but I started counting them and there were always more than that. Usually between 40 and 50 or so even when plump.

And, I'd like your recipes also.

Marinated: chop a couple of green onions, maybe a shallot if you have one, throw in 3-4 cloves chopped garlic; whisk in some good olive oil, a bit of white wine vinegar, juice of one lemon, few shakes off Tabasco, dash of wostershire, a healthy shake of Tiger Sauce,l; salt and pepper to taste; pour mixture over crab fingers ((you can throw in a handful of chopped parsley at this point as well) and marinate for 2-3 hours; serve on a bed of lettuce and enjoy.

Sautéed: put some butter in a skillet, sauté a chopped shallot in the butter, throw in a couple cloves of garlic, toss in the crab, add juice of one lemon, dash of wostershire, and a splash of white wine, put in a shallow ramekin, sprinkle some breadcrumbs on top, and put in a 400 degree oven for about 5-10 minutes, or until bubbly. Take out and serve with good fresh French bread.
