i grew up on fried blue crabs (Texas Gulf Coast. my MOM use to fried them in a skillet not deep fried so then she could may a gravy to eat over white rice. because there is a lot of work to picking out the delicious meat (well worth it and having the rice with the gravy tasted just like the crab!!!

the recipe says soft shelled crabs - but on the show I am sure they were hard shells - and to parboil soft shells for 10 minutes would never work.
Any one else see this?
