- Dress live crabs: With a sharp knife, cut off “apron” or flap the folds under the rear of the body. Turn the crab and cut off the face at a joint just back of the eyes. Lift each point at the sides with the fingers, remove the gills, and wash the crabs in cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Thaw crabs if frozen. Liberally baste bottom sides of crabs with marinade and carefully place, bottom side down, on barbecue grill.
- Grill over slow fire, at least 12 inches from coals for 5 minutes. Liberally baste top of crabs with marinade, turn carefully and grill five minutes more.
