Here's how you eat them.

Find a spot by the water, any picnic table will do.

Lay out some brown butchers wrapping paper.

Set up a couple of pitchers of beer, float a plastic cup full of ice in the pitcher to keep it cold.

Cook crab and coat em with a generous helping of Old Bay.

Place big heaping tray of aforementioned crab on table.

There are various methods of taking them apart, generally flip over and remove the tab from back, flip over and pull of top shell, clean away organs and stuff, flip again and split in half along seam on bottom, start digging for meat.

Drink beer while digging for meat.

As you are handling it the Old Bay will get all over your fingers, do not clean it off. The Old Bay will coat the meat as you retrieve it from the crab.

Drink Beer.

Repeat until all crabs and several pitchers of beer are gone.
