How do you drink the juice out the shell?

Two ways. Break off the big leg at the back of the shell and suck the juice out or tear off the plate that determines male/female on the underside of the shell and that will allow the juice inside the crab to be consumed.

Its like a little bowl bruh. You open your crab with the belly facing up so you dont spill that spicy nectar.

I boil crabs for 6 minutes are so. When I get them big fat females off Grand Isle beach I double the seasoning I use for crawfish, they so fat they barely absorb any seasoning.

Don't put hot crabs in hot water. Make sure they are cold or they will drop there legs and claws.


Sound advice. When doing crabs I use about 1-1/2 times the seasoning to water ratio I’d use for crawfish. More if I know they’re full.

Sometimes you’ll get a poor one that will light you up with that method, though...
