Chef Lynn’s Golden Juicy Crab Boil Had Besa Gordon in a Whole Food Coma
By Besa Gordon - Did you miss my girl Chef Lynn’s Golden Juicy Crab Boil? Well, clearly I didn’t, because your girl was eating good! So let me tell you how it all went down — and yes, how I was eating like I hadn’t been fed all week.
I pulled up to Metier Brewing on Cherry Street, where Chef Lynn had the whole place smelling like heaven. The spread? Everything you dream of in a crab boil — crab, potatoes, corn, mussels, clams, shrimp, sausage, and a boiled egg — all swimming in that legendary garlic butter sauce she’s known for. It was giving flavor, it was giving vibes, it was a whole shmood.
Now, when that bowl hit the table, I was shook by how much seafood was in there. The portions were no joke — just look at that cluster of crab! I started with a potato (because balance), then moved on to a mussel... or maybe that was a clam? Either way, it was fire. I took down some sausage, corn, and had to pause for a water break because I was eating way too fast.
Now here’s a fun fact about me: I don’t know how to use those crab crackers to save my life. Like, if you ever catch me eating crab in public, just know I’m using my hands and teeth — because the last thing I need is crab shells flying everywhere. We’re here for the good meat, not the cleanup! And trust, that meat was sweet and tender.
Chef Lynn never skimps on the servings, so you already know I went home with leftovers (the best kind of midnight snack). So let me tell you something — when she does her next Golden Juicy Crab Boil, make sure you pull up. Otherwise, I’ll just eat it all for you and live my best foodie life. And yes, I’m gonna need that extra side of garlic butter sauce every single time.
