Easy Grilled Soft-Shell Crabs

Recipe

  • 8 soft-shell crabs, cleaned
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Tabasco sauce

Preheat the grill to medium-high.

Combine butter, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Brush both sides of crabs with the mixture. Place crabs, top down, on well-oiled grill. Close grill top and cook until shell turns bright red, about 3 minutes. Turn and repeat, cooking until done. Serve with tartar sauce, if desired.
