  • Splitting: For serving, split the Moreton Bay bugs lengthwise from head to tail. Remove the digestive tract and rinse the cavity thoroughly.
  • Removing Meat: Use kitchen shears to carefully cut along the shell to extract the meat from the tail. Be gentle to keep the meat intact.
  • Reheating (Optional): If you prefer serving them warm, lightly steam or grill the Moreton Bay bugs for 3–5 minutes, but avoid overcooking.
