Tips


 
Here are some tips for enjoying the best crabs from the seafood markets:

1. **Freshness**: Choose crabs that are still lively; they are typically more flavorful. Check for a strong ocean scent, indicating freshness.

2. **Size Matters**: Look for larger crabs, which generally have more meat. Maryland blue crabs come in various sizes; select according to your preference.

3. **Seasonal Availability**: Visit during peak crab season (April to December) for the best selection and quality.

4. **Preparation**: Ask the staff for recommended cooking methods; they may offer insights on steaming or seasoning.

5. **Limitations**: Since delivery isn’t an option, plan your visit accordingly to purchase crabs while fresh.

6. **Local Tips**: Engage with the staff for local recipes or cooking tips to elevate your crab feast.

7. **Accessories**: Don't forget to pick up essentials like Old Bay seasoning, mallets, and crab picks for an enjoyable experience.
