Title: Anyone up for a mud crab sandwich?

They are fantastic. This is from my Home Town and I reckon I knew this bloke's Old Man.

They are pretty good mud crabs, but I have seen far bigger around Bundy.

Link.

There was a road side cafe at Miriam Vale (between Bundy and Gladstone) which had a huge reputation for its mud crab sangers.

Found really big mud crabs up the Roper River NT. Had to reach down into deep mud to bring them up-- but not me--no way, I left that to the expert's. ha ha

I never actually ate any but I believe they are very nice. :-X

They are delicious.....but.....they are not caught in the fashion you describe. Do that, and you'd at least lose a finger, if not an entire hand. Those claws work. They are caught in traps.

See these claws.....and they have just been removed from a trap.

Well this time they were caught in that fashion...I thought they were insane but I kid you not . I was there, I saw them do this, no fingers were lost, they knew what they were doing...anyway next time I am going to try some..

The servo is still there and still serving variations on crab. Their crab pies are f-ckin' awesome - very, very highly recommended.

Why waste good mud crab in a sandwich?

They are that sensational you don't need anything with them

Seafood should never be put in a sandwhich-- only exception to that is any seafood that is canned--
