Ruff and Ready Crabs

ASSI - The best steamed crabs are in Hyattsville, Maryland at Ruff -n-Ready Crab House located on the corners of Riggs Rd and Chillum Road. The best time to purchase crabs from Ruff-N-Ready is at the beginning of Spring and after right before Fall the prices are more affordable. Expect to pay top dollar during the summer and holidays when most crab lovers are purchasing crabs by the dozens and bushels. Mother's Day large male crabs were $42.00 a dozen and regular females sold $32.00 or $36.00. Honestly the large looked more like mediums but were a good size and worth the money. The aroma in Ruff-N-Ready makes your mouth salivate and you will spend more than anticipated but if you are going to splurge do so during non peak periods. You can purchase 30 large shrimp for $15.00. As I see it Ruff-N-Ready is the place to go for steamed crabs and I give them 4 blinks.
