ShrimpSaw Snow mention getting crab the other day but he never said What kind of crab he was getting I like dungeonous Snow, or Blue....I like Blue the best, Dungeonous nex.
But like “Royal Red” shrimp best....they come from deep water of Florida and can only get them Florida to Alabama. Very rarely make it much further west. I cooked some tonight.

FishFish in a tidal wave. Maybe if it was just one kind of fish, crab would have a chance. But ALL/ANY fish? EZ PZ.
Also, I’ve developed a quasi-moral aversion to eating octopus. They’re one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet.
To be clear, I still eat it. Because it fucking delicious. But I feel bad about it. Sometimes. -
ShrimpTough one - it's almost a dead heat between crab and shrimp.
I went with shrimp just because it's easier to peel and eat. But I love me some crab.
Fish are not seafood. Fish are found in lakes and streams (inland). Seafood is found in, you know, the sea.

ShrimpBTW, crawfish suck. Again, not seafood - inland mud dwellers.

Fish100% agree that saltwater fish are superior to fresh water fish.

CrabGood shit pole, Cletus.
You're full of shit on crabbies though. It's Dungeness with a good white wine or GTFO.

That wasn't the question. Fish still not seafood.ThomasFremont said:100% agree that saltwater fish are superior to fresh water fish.
Do you want me to take down that Salma sex tape link?!? Do not question this fact.

FishBarbecue fresh salmon from the cold waters of Puget Sound
Lived for a summer on it when I was working at a herring bait fishery. We kept accidentally catching salmon in the nets
Not big on seafood as a rule
Also like fresh crab legs.
One thing the NW will spoil you on is seafood. Not the farm shit available most places -

Still doesn't change my answer. Unless you're going full on picnic table/newspaper crab boil, shrimp are just easier to consume. See also: scampi.

None the above, Snows a oar boat rower hamburgerhead and I know better ——>there really is no bad vote on those choices - missing Scallops mmmmmmmm.
Take a little of each one on the list and make Ciopinno mmmmmmm
When I lived in Baltimore used to each lunch at a place called Schultzy's on Eastern ave. Crab bisque and a soft shelled blue crab sandwich - a CLT instead of a BLT. mmmmmmmm
ABUNDANCE is the answer
Edit - forgot the pix

All seafood is work. I don’t think crab is any more challenging than shrimp. I don’t have to de-vain crab.PurpleThrobber said:

King Crab is the ultimate, but PNW salmon, dungeness, and clams are all worthy.

Skrong disagree. Dungies beat the shit out of King crab although they are still damn tasty.UWhuskytskeet said:King Crab is the ultimate, but PNW salmon, dungeness, and clams are all worthy.

FishFish is too broad a category so it wins by a mile.
Crab fishermen that I know will only eat kings, red or blue, and Dungeness.YellowSnow said:Good shit pole, Cletus.

Because of this I am a massive pain in the ass when going out to eat. I love salmon. But *only* wild PNW salmon.RaceBannon said:Barbecue fresh salmon from the cold waters of Puget Sound

“Oh that salmon dish sounds good. Where is the salmon from?”
Waiter/waitress: “uh I don’t know, Atlantic?”
“Is it farm raised?”
“Uh I don’t know, maybe”
“Fuck you I’ll have the steak”
Salmon, Halibut and crab (dungeness, King, snow and blue all have their place) are my favorites.

Mastro's Seafood Tower. Customizable. Order the King Crab, Dungness, and the LARGE prawns. Skip the oysters. I could go either way on the lobster. Can be ordered at Scottsdale's Mastro's, CityHall, or The Ocean Club. Mastros has a Beverly Hills location, as well. They'll give you a private table. Just tell them you're part of Derek Johnson's crew. -
CrabDisappointing.
Shrimp is for teenage girls.

None the above, Snows a oar boat rower hamburgerhead and I know better ——>Was on my way to a family get together and everyone was bringing seafood or related item. I decided to bring a geoduck for chowder and generally an all around laugh
I stop by my favorite bar carrying a geoduck in a bag. Sitting there, people are asking what I have in the bag (insert Kimmie what's in the bag.jpg). So I had them play a game and I promised that I had not ripped the bottom of the bag out. (I wish) Anyway generated a lot more laughs than clam chowder. Took all night to clean that damn clam, I think my brother broke a couple of knives trying to skin it.

Crab
Listen - I've told you before that I wouldn't steer you wrong, and I won't. Take that blue crab and put it behind the trailer tire where it belongs and get yourself a big 9" Dungeness crab, and eat the fucker with nothing but melted sweet cream butter. There's really no comparison. King crab is nice because the size of the chunks you get is immense, but the flavor of Dungeness crab is way above the others that I've had, including blues.Pitchfork51 said:Disappointing.

Get your cold pitcher and brown paper and put a Dungie on it. You'll see. I'll give you that my opinion may be a bit biased because on a typical July weekend, I'll go out on my buddy's boat, drop the crab pots, go fuck off and knock back some brews, then pull the pots. Sometimes you have to drop the pots twice to get a limit, but that just means a few more brews. Once we get a limit, it's back to the launch - hit the cleaning station, and then off to the camp site to get a big pot of water boiling with some Old Bay.
Throw in a crab, wait for it to turn that awesome cooked-crab color, then fish it out and eat it - on a piece of brown paper if you want. A crab that's only hours out of the water is pretty hard to beat.
I voted crab in the pole because I like fish, but love crab. If I could put as much crab in my face as I do fish, I might change my vote - but crab is harder to come by than fish.

Rose works too with crab. I’m fairly liberal on the pairings. But if you wanna drink cab that drinks like merlot with crab you should probably got jump of the Narrows Bridge.RoadDawg55 said:

I could drink a read with seafood and a rose with steak. All of that is gibberish bullshit that restaurants do to upsell you on wine.YellowSnow said:
