There are couple different popular ways of Crab Legs cooking : steaming , boiling , oven baking and even grilling . We’ll cover all of them and on top of that, we’ll even show you how to eat them, which is probably the hardest part of all.
Ok , Crab Legs are delicious , nutritious and rich with proteins and vitamins .

Steamed Crab Legs
Fill a large pot with water just below your steaming grate . Bring the water to a boil . Add a table spoon of salt and black pepper(on your taste) and some bay leaves for a flavor . Put Crab Legs in your steaming grate and cover the pot and steam it for 5 to 7 minutes . You can smell that heavenly aroma when it’s ready , so go ahead and serve it with some melted butter , old bay seasoning and some lemon . Enjoy …

Boiled Crab Legs
Fill large ( large enough to fit the crab ) legs pan half full with water and boil it . A tablespoon of salt and pepper , and some bay leaves will bring up the flavor , you can use seafood seasoning also . Put the Crab Legs in by reducing the heat on your stove a little bit . Wait 6-8 minutes , and Crab Legs are ready to be served . Lemon and Old Bay will add some deliciousness to them . Enjoy …

Baked Crab Legs
You need to preheat you oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit . Fill the baking pan with 1/6 water , and put your crab legs in single layer , so all the legs can get equal heat . You can season you Crab Legs with some Old Bay or seafood seasoning , lemon juice and some olive oil if you like before putting them into the pan . Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake them for 7-9 minutes . It’s ready , it’s delicious , be careful not to eat your fingers with them . Enjoy …

Grilled Crab Legs
Wash your Crab Legs , put some olive oil on all sides so they don’t stick to your grill . Bring the grill up to approximately 300 degrees Fahrenheit and place the Crab Legs on the hot grill and grill 5 minutes on each side . Make sure grill is not too hot so your legs don’t dry out . In this case less hot is better than too hot . After your Crab Legs are heated all the way , you can serve them with some melted butter and sliced lemons and for spicy lovers you can even throw some hot sauce on the side . Enjoy …

How to crack , pick and eat Crab Legs ( before eating you need to crack )
Start picking Crab Legs by breaking them in half . Most legs can be broken with hands , for tougher shells you can use crab crackers , heavy knives or cleaver , if needed . Some will start with body meat but the deliciousness is in the legs which will come out straight away if you break the legs with no hustle , easy and smooth . Nutcrackers and lobster crackers are popular choices too . Don’t use too much force , so you don’t have to clean the meat from the shell shards . Crack it easy and solid delicious piece of tender will come out easy too . You can crack and eat as it goes , or you can separate the tenders firs from the whole cluster and enjoy the sweet crab meat feast after . Hope you find it helpful . Enjoy your Crab Legs at home or visit us at Seafood World and we will cook it for you . See you soon .
