Crab legs

Okay could someone tell me how to make crab legs? I know it should be simple but I've never cooked any fish.

I would suggest you google it. It is very easy to do but the timing is important! :)

Get a pot of water, add Old Bay Seasoning and a lemon sliced in half, squeeze the juice in the pot, then add the whole lemon. Once you have a rolling boil, add your frozen crab legs. boil for 3 minutes, remove and eat. That is for snow crab (the thin legs, smooth red and white shell). For King crab, (spiny bigger legs), 5 minutes. I usually cook my clusters in rounds, only 1-2 clusters at a time, if you dump a lot in the pot at once, the water will get too cold, it will take too long, and then you will have water logged crab. Good Luck!

Thanks!!! I'm going to make my dinner now :)

ive personally never made them. but i know my mom steams them. i say google it :). enjoy.

I have the store steam them. Just ask at the fresh fish counter if they will. Its free. Although they might be a tad over steamed, causing the meat to srick to the shell, it still tastes good.

I just had crab legs for dinner and my tummy is sooooooo happy! :)
