Bbq Soft Shell Crabs With Grilled Vidalia Onions Recipes

BBQ'S SOFT SHELL CRABS

Steps:

• Place wok and ring over BBQ. Heat 1 1/2 inches vegetable oil in the wok over hot fire.
• In 1 shallow bowl, combine the flour and crab boil. In a second bowl, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon water. In a third bowl, put the bread crumbs.
• Using paper towel, pat dry a crab. Dredge in flour, coat with egg mixture, then place in bread crumbs or back in flour. Coat well.
• Using tongs, lower the crab into hot oil. Brown both sides, about 1 to 2 minutes. While first crab cooks, prepare second crab. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• When crab is done, place on grate or paper to drain.

GRILLED SOFT-SHELL CRABS

Steps:

• Clean crabs by removing gills and cutting off the eyes and mouth.
• Place crabs on pan or aluminum foil. Place on grill over a low fire. Baste the crabs with the Lemon Butter Sauce. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Continue to baste during cooking. Before serving, top each crab with a slice of tomato and a small amount of mozzarella cheese. Allow cheese to melt. Remove from grill. Serve immediately.
• Add lemon juice and other seasonings. Seasonings may be adjusted for personal taste. Allow to simmer for about 20 minutes.
