How to Cook Alaskan King Crab Legs
Since our king crab legs arrive pre-cooked and frozen, you're simply reheating them — the goal is warming through without overcooking. All three methods below take under 20 minutes.
1. Steamed King Crab Legs
Bring water to a boil in a large pot fitted with a steaming basket. Place crab legs in the basket and steam for 5–7 minutes. Serve immediately with melted butter and lemon wedges.
2. Grilled King Crab Legs
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Brush crab legs generously with garlic butter. Grill for 4–5 minutes per side until lightly charred and heated through.
3. Oven-Baked King Crab Legs
Preheat oven to 375°F. Wrap crab legs in foil with butter, minced garlic, and fresh parsley. Bake for 15 minutes. Open the foil carefully — the steam is hot.
