Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Put oil and bacon pieces in stockpot and cook bacon crispy.
  2. Add onion and garlic and seasonings, sauté; add stock, okra, silver beet and WHOLE pepper. Bring to boil, and then simmer until all vegetables are soft (approximately 1- 1 1/2 hours), BEING VERY CAREFUL NOT TO BURST THE WHOLE PEPPER. With spoon carefully remove pepper and discard.
  3. Using an electric beater (or hand held swizzle stick) beat soup until vegetables are mashed down (do not puree). Return pot to heat, and add crabmeat/crabs; simmer until cooked.
  4. Serve hot and wear a bib to keep front clean when eating crabs, and sucking crabmeat from legs- ENJOY!
