    Saw 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.

    Tough 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.

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

    100% agree that saltwater fish are superior to fresh water fish.

    That wasn't the question. Fish still not seafood.

    Do you want me to take down that Salma sex tape link?!? Do not question this fact.

    Good shit pole, Cletus.

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

    As Jim once said...

    Blue are pretty solid but the Dungie and King are better.

    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.

    Crab tastes way better than shrimp though.

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

    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.

    Fish 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.

    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.

    Disappointing.

    Shrimp is for teenage girls.

    Maryland blues on a big brown piece of paper and a cold pitcher or gtfo

    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.

    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.

    It's the social aspect bitch

    I don’t believe in wine pairings with certain foods, but Dungeness crab is great. I like king crab too.
    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.
