Crab Preparation

  1. 1

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add 2 tablespoons of sea salt to the boiling water.

  2. 2

    Cooking the Crab

    Carefully add the Florida stone crab claws to the boiling water. Boil for about 8-10 minutes until the claws are bright orange and fully cooked.
