Whole King Crab...for my Valentine

[FishNette]

My wife sells flowers wholesale, to flower shops, so Valentines Day is a little different around our house. By the time Valentine's Day arrives, my wife will have worked many 12 hr days with no days off for a couple of weeks. She will be tired and whooped, to say the least. So for the past several years, I have made it a special point to take the day off work and prepare her one of the greatest seafood feasts you can have.

I order a whole king crab from Alaska. I also order scallops and shrimp. I use the scallops in a couple of different recipes. Below is a pic of last year's Valentine's feast.



I just ordered the fixings for this years feast!

I can't hardly wait until next Tuesday!

Well done it makes me hungy, if we are just schmoozing for recipes I would love to have the recipe for the scallops and mushrooms! Yum

where did you order the crab from. That looks good but I ain't showing the wife this thread. She won't let me take her to Burger King after that.

If my GF sees that, there goes the Golden Corral Buffet plans!!


I'd take her to Brennan's or Marks, but why spoil her? Like my daddy said when I showed up at his house on my Honeymoon and asked "Why ya here and not with the new wife?" and I tole him "Dad, she's a virgin." He said "So?" and I tole him "Heck, if she aint good enuf fer her own Family, why should I be with her."

Alright...I checked out the site...everything looks great...how did you cook (heat) the King crab...just some water in the bottom of the pot and put it in the oven???
