A Chesapeake delicacy

Soft crab season, whenever you want it

Soft crabs are blue crabs caught right after they shed their shells, and Marylanders eat them whole, legs and all. Our Hotel/Prime soft crabs measure 4 to 5 inches, a classic size for an appetizer for a small gathering soft crab sandwich, and will arrive frozen, cleaned and ready to cook. Dust them in seasoned flour (we like it with OLD BAY), pan-fry in a little oil and butter until crisp and red, then serve on white bread with one of our signature sauces and tomato or alongside lemon. Choose a 3 pack, a half dozen or a dozen.

Skillet Cooking Instructions 

    • Lightly dust the soft crabs in SEASONED FLOUR (preferably with Old Bay) to coat on both sides.
    • Heat Oil in a Skillet over medium-high heat until simmering hot. Add a little Butter and swirl in the skillet to melt.
    • Add the crabs top side down and cook until browned, about 2-3 minutes.
    • With tongs, flip the crabs and cook until red and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads about 145° F. 
    • Transfer crabs to a large paper-towel-lined plate to drain briefly.
    • Plate, serve with lemons & enjoy!
