Good vid. I've been picking the MD crab in sections the same way since I was 5yo in 1974. Grew up on the water 30 miles south of Annapolis, that was nothing but crab and oyster boats back in the day. Only difference, I handle the knife like a fine sushi chef to save raw fingers after 2 dozen. Use it in the same order, same as yours-to cut the apron, pop the top, cut the devilfingers, cut off the mouth, scrape the center, chop in half, chop in quarters, then start picking. Putting the knife down wastes time. after 45 years, I have the same knife movements that never cut fingers. I've tried Hurricane Hazels way, but she's a legend and it just screws up my crabs. lol So I stick with what I learned. I usually take a break, drink some beer and wait for the table to catchup. About to get a half bushel delivered from Crisfield's MD. looking forward to doing some pickin'! Cheers!

Great video. I live in MD, born and raised, and eating crabs is almost a mandatory thing for a Marylander. We are taught from a young age how to clean a crab. There are plenty of ways to do it but one thing you never, ever do if you are cooking crabs yourself is to boil them. NEVER BOIL a blue crab. Steamed only. The only exception is a soft shell crab, it's okay to batter them and fry them, but that's the only exception. There is hell to pay if you boil a blue crab lol. My prefered seasoning is Old Bay. I put it on crabs, corn on the cob, popcorn, scrambled eggs, etc.. Almost anything that salt can go on Old Bay can go on, and it tastes far better than salt. Also, in MD, if someone says they want crabs, it's always blue crabs. If you want just crab legs, you say snow crab legs. I like AYCE snow crab legs but I never call them crabs. That general term is reserved for blue crabs only.

Here in NJ us clam diggers generally eat the crab meat as it is removed instead of piling it up. Only the Bennies pile it up to eat later.

I learned to pile it up but it was because I always was picking for two small kids at the same time. I would pick mine between the kids' and when they were finally full - I had a nice big pile of crab meat to enjoy. Kids are grown but I still like to do that way.

Nowadays I use Nitrile gloves to stop cutting my fingers, a wooden tool or anything else hard to crack the claws open, and I like to use the smallest part of pincher or any pointy thing to fish out the smaller bits. I would never waste as much meat as this guys does, I love getting every little bit. I live in Pacific northwest now and get lots of Dungeness, which is like a 'giant' blue crab, but still think blue crabs have outstanding flavor and "sweetest" meat. I try to get them when I travel home to eastern US. I love Maryland style seasoning with butter and some malt vinegar for dipping. I also don't care if it takes all day - or all night to eat crabs, it's the best thing ever.

From Singapore and now Maryland.. Grew up eating crabs. You pull down the apron, dig in between the shell and pull the shell off first (use knife if you have to as leverage). Then the rest of the legs will come off easy from the main torso. The meat from the main chambers also break up easier. You first tackle the legs, you can potentially cut yourself because they less likely to “give”.
