Crab Legs

Method

Preparation

1

Chilling Method

If serving chilled, place the crab legs in a large pot of boiling water for 5-7 minutes until heated through. Remove and plunge into an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain and serve cold with melted butter and lemon wedges.

2

Grilling Method

If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and add minced garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Brush the crab legs with the garlic butter mixture and grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until heated through and slightly charred. Serve hot with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh parsley.
