Visit http://www.PartyCateringOBX.com for more tips, unique videos, and exclusive menus from Chef Wes Stepp. On this video, Chef Wes explains how to clean a softshell crab. Instructions are simple and clear, but they sure dont look too good for sensitive people ;) Softshell season starts in early May and goes until the end of June – if you dont feel like cooking them yourself, come in the Red Sky Cafe in Duck, NC.
