Wait, so you can't just go to the fancy food store in town and get stone crab from the fish counter, if you don't live in FL?
Where do y'all get these bad boys?
Well, I don't know... COL is much lower than in CA, and there's plenty of space and suitable temps year round for the cool motorcycle in your profile pic.Stone Crabs - You Rock Baby!
Been a long time. Next up as the season will be ending soon. Much cheaper to send the crabs to me compared to sending me to Florida.
Sounds like they blew the dough.
Nah, ain't no fancy fish counter out here on the left coast that has stone crabs
Not really. Other than the shipping, which is pretty expensive, the actual food isn't that high. Stone crab claws probably have the highest mark up of any individual food item in the US. If you know a shrimper you can get 5 lbs of shrimp for about 10% of what they cost in the seafood market. I'll pull the heads off myself at that markup.
Plus they kept a satisfied customer, good for future marked up prices.
But as was previously stated, if you don't live in FL you have no other options.
I would take the RV and make a trip to the Gulf Coast, and linger for a while to eat all the seafood, particularly freshly caught shrimp until I decide I have enough.
That's my routine whenever I go to Nova Scotia. Specifically lobster.
It's the same with Dungeness crab. They sell live crabs in fish tank here, so that's no big deal.

It’s interesting. I’ve lived near enough to the Texas gulf coast all my life to have plenty of great gulf shrimp. But once we stayed on the Alabama coast, and they had a very different gulf shrimp there. I think “Reds” was in the name. It was delicious. I’ve also had terrific shrimp from the GA coast (Atlantic).Now, they say that fresh Gulf shrimp is something you need to experience, and I have yet to do that.
Maybe! Or maybe a NEW PHONE?
My old one recently died of old age. And when I got a replacement I got the top of the line model. Cost 3 times what my old phone had. 3 years ago. Whao!

Thank you! Yes, that’s it. We were in Gulf Shores. We don’t get Royal Reds in the western Gulf.Royal reds. We had them in Panama City Beach, as well as Gulf Shores.
Almost like eating a lobster tail.
I always import them from some place on the internet in Florida.
