I could eat these every day
 

King crab legs are so sweet and succulent . . . I could easily make this a staple of my daily diet.

How are you cooking them?

mmmm....luv crablegs!

Oh yea :winkwink: I love seafood, just had my mom cook me a huge bowl of shrimp on the weekend.. delish!!

They are steamed soon after they are caught.

You haven't had crab until you've had Stone Crab.

I like sea food but I never really get to eat it. Growing up my sister was deathly allergic to shelfish and then when I got married I discovered my husband got sick at the mere suggestion of fish.

cooking?

Alaskan King Crab is a lot tastier

Yeah I recently developed a taste for these.

I like soft shelled blue crabs from Chesepeake Bay

I ate Red Crab for the first time two months ago... it was good, too bad it was windy so it wasn't warm :(

i thought of pussy :1orglaugh

Yea King crab is damn good. But I prefer loster just because you get more meat for less effort :)

Yum! Yum! I'm starving! Let's feast on king crab!

Though this may sound insanely silly. The best way I have found to cook them is the microwave. As it has been mentioned the legs are pre-cooked right after they are brought to dock. Boiling them kills them and steaming them often will make the tough since they just need a slight re-heat.

So I take them and wrap them in wet paper towels. About 6 legs at a time depending on size. Then I double wrap that with plastic wrap and put them in the microwave for about 2 minutes. This heats them perfectly without over cooking them.

Carefull with your blood pressure--a friend went straight to the hospital after having it on her birthday..

And why is that?

Not a fan of seafood or crab.

I loveeeee seafood! I'd eat more shellfish, but the cholesterol is a killer.

Because they did not kill it first?

You should try crayfish & baby octopus, that stuff is the shit :winkwink:

Must be. Aside from alergies I have never seen any person have a medical issue from eating crab. (ok assuming that crab was not left out all day)

skip the butter

this is a GREAT place to order Alaska crab legs:

I rather like using http://www.fishermansexpress.com/ and they seem to have better pricing.

I love them too, just seems like I have to eat a ton to get filled up.

definetly yummy.. I used to have allergies with seafood.. good thing that was over...

:1orglaugh Mb it's because it's high i calorie or something.

mmmm, now i'm hungry

Anyone her ever have a crab ball? :D

Crab meat + cream cheese, mixed and shaped into a big half-ball, then "painted" with seafood sauce, served with crackers.

Makes a killer snack for a superbowl party, Christmas day, etc.

Btw, I've had nearly every variety of crab mentioned in this thread served every way suggested (even the crab cakes)... and love love love it all. I am a seafood-a-holic.

Agreed....

. . . and that is coming from an SC fan. :winkwink:

i'll take lobster 4thewin

I like crabsticks very much, but when I have too much I have rashes after.

I'd go for that crab cake instead. Looks yummy. :)
