There are no Maryland crabs yet, except maybe a few at the very bottom of the bay. We will not even put our first load of pots out until next weekend. If you want real Maryland crabs, you will need to wait a bit.

True Maryland Crabcakes

Chef,
You are abolutely right! I am a Maryland commerial crabber. That junk in the cans is crap verses what we catch in the Bay. To get the best crab meat, you should buy live crabs, cook them and pick them.
Our season in Maryland doesn't open until April first and we really don't start before May 1. And our soft-shelled crabs... I can't wait to pull the first one from our tanks! Beware what you buy.
