Joe's Stone Crab

"In the early 1900's, Joe and his wife, Jennie,

discovered an unknown delicacy

- stone crabs -

and served them chilled, with mustard sauce.

It was the beginning of a tradition."

Stone crabs:

Native to the waters around Florida,

stone crabs are a delicacy only available

from November to May.

Fishermen remove one claw from the crab

and return it to the water.

The claw will regenerate

to full size in about a year.

Usually served chilled.

Stone crab claws were first succesfully prepared

on Miami Beach
