Old Bay King Crab Legs Recipes

BEER-BOILED CRAB LEGS WITH OLD BAY GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Crab LegsBring a large stock pot of water to a boil. It's best to only fill the stock pot about half way to allow for a rise in the water level when you add the crab legs. Add beer and enough Old Bay to give the water a "muddy" appearance. Boil crab legs for 10 minutes. Drain crab legs and place on a large platter or cookie sheet. Squeeze lemon juice over crab legs and sprinkle with Old Bay. ButterAdd about 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of butter to a ramekin for each person. Microwave ramekins in 20 second intervals, swirling in between, until the butter melts. Top with Old Bay if desired.

KING CRAB LEGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place crab legs in a shallow baking pan.
• Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted, about 3 minutes. Whisk in seafood seasoning, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Brush crab legs with butter mixture and pour any remaining mixture over crab legs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until opaque and flaky, basting regularly with the butter mixture in the pan, 25 to 35 minutes.
