OLD BAY KING CRAB LEGS
The classic seafood seasoning and lemon bring heat and brightness to sweet crab meat. The only way to improve it is with a dunk in drawn butter.

Steps:
- Put the crab legs in the bottom of a large stockpot, then cover with 4 quarts of water and stir in the seafood seasoning (see Cook's Note). Halve the lemons and squeeze the juice into the pot, then add the rinds. Cover and bring to a boil, then cook over medium-high heat until the crab legs are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove the crab legs to a large serving bowl or platter.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until the butter foams and simmers, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let stand 5 minutes. Using a spoon, remove any milk solids from the surface of the butter, then slowly pour the melted butter into a small serving bowl, leaving any watery, white whey behind in the saucepan. Serve alongside the crab legs.
CRAB LEGS WITH GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE
I ended up getting some snow crab legs on sale at the market. I wanted something a little different from plain steamed, boiled, or grilled crab legs, so I ended up throwing a few things together to make this awesome crab leg dish. Enjoy! This would be great with shrimp as well.

CRABS - GARLIC BUTTER BAKED CRAB LEGS
I have tried and tried again to re-create the garlic butter crab legs that taste like the crabs from my favorite crab joint-The Crab House on Pier 39 in San Francisco. I have finally done it!

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Meanwhile, grab yourself a small saucepan. On med low heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic (I prefer a press) and LIGHTLY saute. Squeeze in the juice of the citrus of choice. If using a lemon, squeeze the juice into your hands so that you can remove the seeds with ease. Turn the heat to low and let those flavors mesh until the oven is nice and hot. Toss in as much salt (to taste) and a couple pinches of parsley. Then whisk in that olive oil with a fork. Turn off your burner.
- Arrange your tasty crustaceans in a 9x13 baking dish, brushing each leg with the sauce. ***TASTY TIP*** I use an injector to pop a *little* extra UMPH into my crabs. Pour any remaining sauce over those puppies. Now toss the pan into the oven on the center rack.
- Bake your crabs for about 25 minutes or so (depending on how thick the legs you have are), brushing the sauce from the bottom of the pan onto the legs every 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with a few pinches o' parsley for garnish.
- I am a lazy gal, detest doing more dishes than I have to, and am a firm believer in the "waste not, want not" phrase. With that said, I just serve the crab in the same dish I baked it in so I can dip the meat into the tasty sauce, savoring every last drop. If you are the opposite, use tongs and place them on a platter and pour the buttery-goodness into ramekins. VOILA! Crab House comparable delicacy! "Ohhhh my CRAAAABS!

HOW TO COOK CRAB LEGS 4 DIFFERENT WAYS
From tasteofhome.com
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
- Boiling Crab Legs. Boiling is one of the best ways to cook crab legs. The water gets in between the cooked meat and the shell, keeping everything moist and juicy.
- Steaming Crab Legs. Steaming crab legs is very similar to boiling them. Some people say that steaming is actually better because it allows all of the crab flavor to stay within the shell instead of leaking out into the cooking water.
- Broiling Crab Legs. Broiling crab legs in the oven is a great way to infuse some good buttery flavor into the crab legs as they reheat. Thanks to the high heat of the broiler, the crab legs will also gain a little bit of caramelization using this method, adding an extra layer of flavor.
- Grilling Crab Legs. Grilling crab legs is a great way to keep cleanup to a minimum, and to avoid heating up your kitchen in the summertime! A charcoal grill will add the most flavor to the crab legs, but even a propane grill will add that characteristic grill-smokiness.

- Drawn Butter. I am a firm believer that you can’t have crab without melted butter! The fantastic thing about this flavorful drawn butter is that the crab needs no further seasoning, no fancy sides, just dunk the crab meat and eat it as is!
- Bloves Seafood Sauce. Bloveslife is a YouTube sensation and this sauce put her on the map! Her seafood sauce is savory and full of delicious spices. There are a lot of ingredients, but they are probably already in your kitchen and it’s definitely worth gathering them all up.
- Pan Seared NY Steak. Serve up an epic surf & turf dinner by pairing your crab legs with a perfectly pan-seared New York strip steak! Talk about a comforting and lavish meal!
- Cheddar Bay Biscuits. Red Lobster was onto something with their cheddar bay biscuits. These cheesy, fluffy biscuits are delicious on their own, but they pair wonderfully with seafood!
- Milk Boiled Corn On The Cob. There’s a reason you always see corn on the cob at every crab boil. The crisp, fresh crunch of corn is nice and refreshing when paired with buttery, savory crab.
- Parmesan Roasted Artichokes. I can’t believe how many people I have met that have never tried artichokes! At least not in their whole form. These artichokes are topped with panko and Parmesan cheese and are guaranteed to be a great first impression for anyone who has never tried them.
- Baked Zucchini Fries. Zucchini fries are crispy and baked to perfection. Serve them with a delicious dipping sauce like this pesto sauce (or ranch) and you have a comforting side that is less filling than potatoes.
- Garlic Bread. When in doubt, serve up a side of garlic bread! It goes with everything, and you will be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t like it.
- Coconut Fried Shrimp. Serve up seafood spread by making some coconut-fried shrimp! This is a personal favorite of mine, and the crunchy coconut coating is a great contrast to buttery crab while keeping with the seafood theme.
- Jalapeno Corn Bread. If you want a little spice, jalapeno cornbread is a great option. It’s not overly hot while being fluffy and full of flavor. If you like your crab with Cajun seasoning, this jalapeno cornbread will pair perfectly.
