Yabby Catch And Cook, The Best Way To Cook Yabbies
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
WOW What an amazing start to spring I have had with the yabbies. The yabbying usually isn't this good until at least October. I caught some very large yabbies, and then I cooked them and in this video I will teach you the best way to cook yabbies. Well, it is certainly my favourite way to cook yabbies.

Thank you so so much for your amazing generosity Grumpy. You have just been robbed and here you are helping me and my family financially. WOW I'm so sorry about your terrible run on the road. My old man was a truck driver for almost 50 years. He was one of the first to drive for Fred Green when he started Greenfreight, working out of Myrtleford with just 3 or 4 trucks. He retired 6 months ago and now driver school buses instead. LOL He's almost 73 and just doesn't want to stop. I hope that the people that stole your phone get what they deserve. I hope Karma bites them on the ass mate, which I am sure it will.

Hi Robbie, THis is how I was taught to cook crustaceans with the exception of using the water they lived in to cook them. I do this at home but i only blanch them. This makes them easier to peel. Once they are peeled i use them in stir frys or whatever I'm cooking. When I'm hungry outdoors i will rake a bed of coals out of the fire and throw them on, this is my absolute favourite way to cook yabbies, I love that smokey seafood flavour.

Hey robbie great video brother those are some big yabbies i would use rock salt instead of table salt and i would probably use a little bit of honey and chilli flakes or powder into the water while cooking them or i would cut them down the middle and i would wash them out and then i would soak them in a garlic butter for a few hours and then i would put them on bbq and while they are cooking i would pour my butter and garlic over the top of them while they cook

100% agree with you on snakes, completely misunderstood. We have an American Black Snake that lives in the crawl space under our house, and sometimes she likes to come up top to say hello. My wife always freaks out while I simply pick the happy gal up and take her back out(She's not aggressive at all, just a big scaly puppy dog) . I used to call her Mr. Slithers(a play on the Simpson's character Mr. Smithers) but then realized she's a she, so I need a new name for her. I'm leaning towards Medusa, from Greek legends, but not sure that's a good name. Maybe I'll name her Naga.

Hey mate, they are dynamite shrimp traps. There is rarely shrimp in any of these dams as they need oxygen in their water. Yabbies thrive in poor quality water, but shrimp die which is why they are more prolific in rivers. I do get them in some dams, but usually only dams that have fresh water flowing through them, or pumped into them regularly.

Haha thanks mate. I have a few videos where I do that. To be honest, I reckon they actually lose a bit of flavour doing that. I don't know why. We all have different tastes I guess. The biggest benefit of tailing them first is that I don't even up with a freezer full of shells because of I cook them at home I can tail them out the bush before I even come home..
No no no. Best way to cook fresh yabbies is directly on the coals shell on. A couple of minutes on both front and back. Try it. You'll never boil another yabbie.
