Hairy Crabs and All-you-can-drink

We had a party at a restaurant tonight. We ordered course meals and all-you-can-drink whose time limit was 2 hours.
Hairy crabs were served in the middle of the course. They were about the size of our hands and each person had one crab. They were delicious but there was one problem.
It was difficult to eat a crab. First I broke its legs and cut them with scissors and scooped crab meat with a special folk. The legs of hairy crab were not big. It meant that it took more time than a big crab. Regardless of hard work of scooping meat I can't get large amount of meat. It took long time even for one leg and, oh, there are ten legs.
It was really hard work to eat whole legs and I had got a stiff neck. But I had done. When I finished working the two-hour time limit had elapsed. My all-you-can-drink was one glass of beer. Someone said that serving crabs was a restaurant's tactics to prevent guests from drinking a lot.

It was difficult to eat the crabs.
First I broke its legs, and cut them with scissors, and scooped out crab meat with a special folk.
The legs of a hairy crab are not big.
It meant that it took more time than eating a big crab. ["x more than y" requires that "x" and "y" be comparable. You compared "eating a hairy crab" with a "big crab".]
Regardless of the hard work of scooping out the meat, I could not get a large amount of meat.
It took a long time even for one leg and, oh, there were ten legs.
It was really hard work to eat all of the legs and I had got a stiff neck.
But I did it.
When I had finished working, the two-hour time limit had elapsed.

I don't eat crab often, but I think it's very good and worth the work(＾＾)
It took a long time even for one leg and, oh, and there are ten legs. (your sentence was good, but this sounds more natural to me.)
First I broke off its legs, and then I cut them with scissors and scooped out crab meat with a special fork.
It took long time even for one leg-- oh, and there are ten legs.
