How do you cook a crab?

[Malak]

I tried throwing one at the fire and I hear a sizzle for a moment before it falls off to the side. Then I tried having it on my spear while crouched in the fire which you would think would work and I get sick either way.

without a spit, just RMB to drag it on the fire and drop it.
As long as you hear sizzle its cooking.
Leave until you hear a DING.. all food works tht way.
Or you can RMB hold it on the fire.. but dropping it works fine

Put the Crab in to you´r inventory. Than klick on the crab, klick on Q, than right klick on the Crab and hold it over you´r Campfire so long as you hear a Loud Sound like KLING, now the Crab is gone and rigth for eating.

Those are not very filling.
Shark is the best
Once you have your fire, I cook as much meat as I have laying around.. stock it up,, so far it does not rot.
Coconuts will give you the runs, but man, they do fill you up in qauntity

I can't manage to get that Crab over my fire. RMB doesn't seem to do anything for me. I tried to change to controls, but no luck.

Ok, after trying over and over, I managed to do it, but it takes some crazy distance from the fire in order to get that crabbie cooked..

upgrade your firepit. You can lean fish and craps on the rocks around and cook all at once. The final 3rd "stage" of the firepit is nice to handle, but can only cook one thing at a time at the middle. But like i said, lean stuff on the stones around the pit.

Sadly, atm cocusnuts give way more "hunger" back than seafood.

Well, THIS is an old thread. LOL

What I have found is that you are correct that being a distance away to bring the crab up really helps. Also if the crab is rightside up it helps but sometimes when they are flipped over you can get them to hover in the flames really high up for a long time.

The upgraded fire pit & spit are really nice because it's click-click to take one off and put another one on. No screwing around. I actually need very few rocks anymore and pretty much make the full setup everywhere I go.
