Recipe by Momma Needs a Goal:
Maryland Crab Soup
1 lb. of Lump Crab Meat (or pick about 2 dozen crabs)
1 lb. of Crab Claw Meat
2 cups of Beef Broth
2 cans Diced Tomato with liquid
1 bg. (18.5 oz) Hanover Soup Basics Maryland Mixed Veggies for Crab Soup (if you can not find, use mixed veggies with string beans, potatoes, corn, lima beans and tomatoes).
1 cup Water (may need to add 1 more cup if not enough, start with one cup)
3 Tablespoons of Old Bay Seasoning (ONLY IF YOU ARE NOT USING THE HANOVER SOUP BASICS FOR CRAB SOUP)
If you are using the Hanover Soup Basics for Crab Soup you will only need about ½ tablespoon of Old Bay Seasoning. If picking your own crabs that have seasoning, wait until the soup is done before adding the Old Bay Seasoning. You don’t want to have too much; you can always add to the soup if you want it spicier.
Pepper and Sea Salt for taste
In a large pot add beef broth, water, diced tomatoes, veggies (and the seasoning packing if using Hanover Soup Basics for Crab Soup), Old Bay Seasoning (amount depends on the frozen veggies you use and if you picked your own crabs, see ingredient list for more details). DO NOT ADD MEAT YET!
Cook on med/low for ½ hour. If you picked your own crabs you want to add the claws and half crabs after ½ hour (do not add meat yet). Then cook for an additional ½ hour. Total of 1 hour. After an hour add crab meat and cook for an additional hour. Total cook time is 2 hours. Add salt and pepper to taste. At this point do a taste test, if you want spicier add a little more Old Bay Seasoning. Enjoy! This soup does freeze well. - Навчання та стиль
Well, I copied your recipe it was absolutely amazing. I did make my own seasoning but I didn’t use that much of a bag because my mom can’t handle the spice but it still turned out great thank you.
Awesome, so glad you enjoyed it. I can't wait to get some grabs and make this soon. Thanks for watching and commenting, truly appreciate it.
That’s the best Md. crab soup I’ve ever seen!’ Bravo!!!!!
Thank you so much for such kind words. Thanks for watching.
I'm gonna give you a little tip by the crabs raw season them yourself and use the broth as the stock. It comes out ten times better than beef broth from a can
I remember my dad doing that when I was little and I think he added a can of beer when he steamed the crabs. I have to be honest I don't think I could steam live crabs. lol But that is a really great tip and brought back memories for me. Thanks so much.
I came across your Maryland Crab Street recipe. It was absolutely great your recipe was by far the best I’ve ever had. The only thing I can’t find is that Hanover foods Maryland Crab mix I looked at Giant they don’t carry it. Safeway doesn’t carry. Any suggestions please
Thank you so much, I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. I have found the Hanover mix at Food Lion and Weis. So far they are the only two stores. Sometimes you will not find it until around May or June. I stock up when I get it. Thanks again and hope you find them.
looks amazing!
It was! Thanks for watching
Your amazing and motivated me to make this!! I’m going to get 6 steamed crabs and use Phillips lump & claw. Hope to be anywhere close to your fabulousness!!!
You are so kind. Your plan sounds like it will work. If you are able to find the Hanover Old Bag Veggies that would be great if not just use more Old Bay. Good Luck and thanks for watching.
I bought 2 bags of Hanover old bay today, after 3 grocery stores, finally I found it at Food Lion. I am doing double as you did so I got 2 Lbs of Lump, 2 Lbs of claw and got 4 L male crabs to use the claws and body’s as you did, I don’t have as much fabulousness as you to pick all of the crabs 🦀. I’m hoping it will be good!
You really knocked it out of the box with your Soup!!!
I’m Born & raised Marylander as well. ❤️🦀❤️🦀❤️
Quick question do you add onion or would it be ok too?
@@user-kd4mz4in8o I didn't add any and I just went to look up the ingredients in the mixed veggie bag and I can't find it. It's not on their site any longer. Oh my, I think it has been discontinued. ughh but to answer your question you can add onion.
Very cool Kelley...that's a labor of love picking the crab for this dish.....being a northerner I would have to go for a can of crab meat....looks amazing and can't wait to try...
I was at the grocery store yesterday and a 1lb. crab meat was $37. Went to Costco this morning and it was $38 for a lb. I was going to make crab cakes. I think I will wait a little longer. lol
Ypu never said whats in those spice packs in the hanover veggie mix. You said you list it. Im sure its very important to the flavor. Can you please provide this information?
oh my, sorry I didn't realize I never posted the ingredients to the packet. I have some in my basement freezer so I will get it out later today and post an update in the description box. I will copy and paste it to your response too. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
Tomato paste and old bay is pretty close if not the same
Here are the ingredients in the spice packet: water, tomato paste, beef broth, salt, vegetable protein, seafood seasoning (old bay), chicken juices, rendered chicken fat, crab base (crab meat), butter, potato starch, salt, sugar, potato flour, crab juices. If I was to replicate this I would just use tomato paste, old baby seasoning and a little beef broth. With all the other ingredients in my soup this should work.
can you add potatoes?
LOOKS GREAT!! Been thinking about moving to the crab state md for a while now
It is one of my favorite foods. If you have any questions about Maryland, just ask. Lived here my entire life, though we are thinking about moving in a few years when we retire. Thanks so much for watching.
oops sorry I missed your Potato question. Yes, you can add potatoes. The vegetable soup mix that I use has potatoes in it. They are just chopped up small.
They say crab is coming down in price due to an abyndance in Alaska! I know not blue shell! You said you weee going to give the recipe for seasoning in veg. bag?? Was that jusy Ol

Thanks for watching.
A waist of perfectly good blue shell crab.
Absolutely NOT!!!! We ordered a bushel of crabs to eat with family. We picked them up when the store was closing and they gave us 4 extra dozen of crabs. We had way to many to eat. So instead of Wasting them I put them in my big freezer. A few weeks later I thawed them to use for soup. I call that being smart!
You talk too much. I lost interest in the recipe.
Thank you for being honest. You are correct, my husband says I have diarrhea of the mouth. This is an older video and I have gotten better and if I notice I talk a lot I try and edit it out as much as possible. I am getting better at it but still need to do better. Please try and skip through my chatter because it really is a good recipe. Thanks again for commenting, comments like this truly help me create better videos.
