voyager Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Today I bought our first Dungeness of the season. $14.99 a pound, in shell, a new price point for me. Just over $30 for the crab. I’ll see how that nets out. I pay $50-60 a pound for picked crab, and my home-did product has less shell fragment. I hope to get more than a half pound meat out of this one. Husband says just mayo with Colman’s tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joethefoodie Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Not bad, at $15 a portion (and a shell to make stock). Cheaper than Swan and having a couple Crab Louis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably only when squiring around out-of-towners eta because this crab struck me as "lean" when I started to pick it, I weighed out the net product. 2.8 oz leg meat; 2.7 body meat. $5.45 / oz Picked crab from my local at $50 lb. = $3.13 / oz. Or down the street $60 lb. = $3.75 / oz. So much for my per hour worth! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StephanieL Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Picked up two crabs at the Fisherman's Wharf market near work. At $10/lb, it came to $35 and change. (They're also selling live crabs at $9/lb.) N will pick up avocado and a few other things today, and we'll have a nice dinner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StephanieL Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 The market I got them from happily does travel packs, like some of the fishmongers at Pike Place Market, so take advantage the next time you come out here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
