    From 58 thru the 60's we bought these after grocery shopping at the Winn Dixie in Ybor City. There was an old man out front with a cart. He had it filled with deviled crabs. He put a little hot sauce on it for you. They are still my favorite thing to eat. Back then he only had Louisiana Hot Sauce. Delicious. Later they began to sell them all around at the restaurants.

    I make these every year for my family at Christmas..it is a true labor of love…I always get the phone calls to make extra so ‘they” can take a few home! Had to say no this year …getting older and the cost of crab is pricey! I buy la segunda Cuban bread from Tampa and make my own bread crumbs too…that’s the secret for sure! Picked up a few good tips from your video…thank you and merry christmas

    I used to watch the older guys at the Silver Ring Cafe in Ybor make the deviled crab. There was no such thing as Siracha back then. They gave us Crystal Hot Sauce to spritz on the deviled crabs. The Silver Ring is long gone, but fortunately the deviled crabs live on and are available many places here in Tampa - a great accompaniment to your Cuban Sandwich!

    I was born and raised in Tampa, FL. Deviled crabs and Cuban sandwiches are some of the things that I miss the most from that area. Being able to see dolphins playing in the ocean was great as well. I'm so glad that I found this video though. I've been craving deviled crabs but I've never made them. You did a great job explaining them as well.

    I'm a Tampa native and you've got this 100% correct. I grew up on these and my last trip to visit family, my nice hooked me up with a dozen, frozen. I've kept them frozen and transported back to my home in NC. I'd really like to try my air fryer on a couple. Thaw first? Any suggestions? P.S. - I also brought back 6 loaves of Cuban bread because you can only get the good stuff in Tampa!

    • @DoesntPayFullPrice
      @DoesntPayFullPrice  4 месяца назад +1

      Thank you, I love to hear that! Ooo that's a tough one, I would probably say that first so it heats all the way through. But if it was low enough, maybe 325 degrees it may work from frozen.
      I do miss that good Tampa cuban bread, you really can only get the good stuff there.

      So I did it with 2 thawed deviled crabs. Heated the air fryer to 390° and lightly sprayed the deviled crabs with olive oil. Kept in the air fryer for 20 mins. but turned them every 5 minutes or so. Not bad, but I'll probably deep fry the others. Of course I did add Sriracha.

    I’m born an raised here in the Tampa Bay Area and all my family is too we’ve been eating and making these all my life and I just gotta say you don’t take short cuts and try to change the real true recipe for them it takes a few days to get everything together and ready to make and our recipe makes around 30 rolls. If you want to make them find the copy cat recipe for the Columbia restaurant or the old 1920s Ybor city recipe I have my granny’s recipe which is about the same as those. And follow the steps and times No Short Cuts!!!! We always freeze some for later and since everything as went sky high to buy these in the restaurants here now they are around 7 to $8.00 dollars Each!!! And side note We have never SHOT THEM full of hot sauce
