22 steps
Ingredients
- 5 pounds Crab Legs Or Crabs
- 2 sticks Butter
- 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 cups Chicken Broth
- 1/2 cups Beer
- 3 Tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning, Plus More To Taste
- Good Bread For Dipping (optional)
Directions
-
1Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
-
2Add in the garlic and saute for 2 minutes, stirring often.
-
3Add in the chicken broth, beer and Old Bay.
-
4Stir well.
-
5Bring to a rapid boil for 2 minutes, stirring often.
-
6Set aside.
-
7Reheat sauce just to a boil when crabs are just about ready.
-
8Cook your crabs.
-
9We have a very large turkey cooker that hooks up to a propane tank that we only use for crabs.
-
10So easy, and its all done outsidean extra perk.
-
11Frozen crab legs are already cooked, so all you are really doing is heating them up.
-
12We steam them frozen in batches for approximately 8 minutes a batch.
-
13The bigger the batch, the longer it takes.
-
14Again, all you are doing is heating them up.
-
15If you do not have a turkey fryer, you can cook the crabs in a vegetable steamer or colander over heavy and rapid boiling water (fill pot about 1/3 of the way with water.)
-
16Cover tightly and steam them for 10-12 minutes until heated through.
-
17As soon as the crabs are ready, begin dunking and basting them one cluster at a time in the sauce.
-
18As you place each one onto the serving dish, shake a good amount of Old Bay Seasoning onto one side of each crab cluster.
-
19Once your dish is full, spoon some of the additional sauce over the crabs; if necessary, give a couple of additional shakes of Old Bay and you are good to go.
-
20And dont forget some good French bread for sopping up the sauce in the bottom of the bowl.
-
21Dip your crab into it as well if you like, and please lick your fingers every once and a while.
-
22All rules are out the window when eating crabs!
