Then you just bake it until it's tender. Or, as a variant, you can do it in a fry pan, and when it's just about done, turn up the heat and add some surgar to turn the marinade into a glaze.

That sounds yummy- I'll have to try that for my own family.
On a side note- can you cook with alcohol in a sorority house? Or would that go against the no alcohol rule?

I guess you could smuggle in an airplane size bottle, but I'd like to think that your National/Housing Corp/Campus doesn't have THAT big a stick up their ass.

I have brought in wine and beer to use in cooking only. I just don't say anything and its never been an issue. Used in recipes like Beef Burgundy, Brats, Poached Pears, She Crab Soup.

I have to ask - no He Crab Soup?
What makes it She Crab Soup, and how can you tell it's a girl crab?
Oh, and can I have the recipe? I'm partial to crab.

I'll get a recipe to post for She Crab Soup but I'm going out of town and it will be a couple of days before I can post it. It is She Crab in that traditionally you add crab roe. I don't think I've ever had a bowl of it with the roe, so its more accurate to say a She Crab Style Soup. But it is really good if after dishing into a bowl you float some sherry on top. Nice and hot and thick for a good cold winter day.

Hope this helps!
He-crab, she-crab, it...does it matter?
 Many recipes specify she-crabs, so you'll need to be able to tell females from males. Luckily, this is easy to do, and you won't need a magnifying glass. Simply look at the underside of the crab. As you will see from the graphic, the female has a broad, triangular-shaped area in the center of the shell, whereas the male has a distinctive, elongated spire in the center.

So, I take it the elongated spire is you know what?
Well, I do not know if I would be up for the mating of crabs!
Just the eating sounds so much better.
