Rinse the crabs under cold running water and pat dry on paper towels. Transfer to a large resealable plastic bag.

Drain the crabs and discard the marinade. Lightly dust the crabs with Traeger Cajun Shake.

When ready to cook, set the temperature to 450℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.

Arrange the crabs directly on the grill grate and grill, turning once, until the crabs turn orangish-pink and don't seem "squishy" when pressed with a finger, 16 to 20 minutes total depending on their size.
