It's New Year's Eve and I have 3 lbs. for my husband and I, can't wait to feast on crab legs. Thanks for the simple and quick how-to. Peace, prayers and blessings to everyone, here's to a spectacular new year!!!
Another happy new year ❤😂❤ 2024. I’m totally craving these king crabs and butter right now but I am making them tomorrow. My boyfriend doesn’t like them and that makes me so happy. More for me. 😊
Love your video..I viewed maybe 8 others before yours and yours is the one that seemed to be the most easily explained and exactly what I was looking for..thanks
Thanks for this tutorial! I didn't know they could be baked. I also did not know crab legs were already cooked. King crab is anywhere from $39.99 to $65.99 a pound in Los Angeles right now!!
Yep! Almost all crab legs sold in stores are pre cooked. If they are bright red/orange, they're cooked! I live in NC and snow and dungeness crab legs are in the $17-$25 per pound and the King is usually 50ish per pound but today they were $64.99!!! Still bought some lol
@@lazyblazer It actually made sense after I thought about it. Crab spoils fast. My friend bought them too at that price. I couldn't bring myself to pay that price but I was tempted....for about a minute!
@@sandijohnson4630 Yeah, they were collosal king crab as well! 1lb per leg. They were great but not quite worth it for $65/lb in my opinion. But King crab is always more expensive on the east coast, and snow crab is more expensive on the west coast, generally speaking. Snow crab and Red Atlantic crab has the best flavor I think.
@@Warblaster glad you liked it now the bad news is you are going to be addicted to them like the rest of us sometimes you won't even care how much they cost you just know you're eating some of that day
Damn I just found out I have cancer and before I die that's all I want is to be able to try some king crab legs...I eat a lot snow crab but I really want to try the big ones...you have great friends especially gifting 10lbs...wow🤤
Is the timing for the legs baked in the oven based on frozen or thawed? If thawed, how much longer should I go for frozen? I have a cpl pounds of them and really don't want to fuck up $120 by doing it wrong
Hi Gloria - These crab legs were actually fresh, but this steaming method works with frozen, too. Simply thaw the crab legs in your refrigerator one day before you plan to steam them.
Hi There - The king crab legs used in this recipe were fresh, so they will steam within 5-7 minutes. If using frozen, we recommend allowing them to thaw one day prior to cooking. They can then steam for the same amount of time as fresh crab legs. Thank you for your questions.
King Crab is already cooked when you get it. I take it out of the shell and clean that mush off of it. Then. Then steam ithe only way you're gonna get a uncooked king crab is if it's alive
Chef Billy is so easy to follow, this made the process such a breeze
Thank you for this! I’m trying it tonight can’t wait, I have been intimidated to ever prepare these for my family but I’m finally trying.
It's New Year's Eve and I have 3 lbs. for my husband and I, can't wait to feast on crab legs. Thanks for the simple and quick how-to. Peace, prayers and blessings to everyone, here's to a spectacular new year!!!
Enjoy, Holly! Happy New Year!

After your video, I will definitely try to cook it myself) Thanks)
That looks delicious!

Thank you! Treating myself now, cause this is a treat 💸
Love watching things I cannot afford 😂😂

Costco

@@lazyblazer It's so disappointing when we spend a lot of $$$'s and it's not good. I've done it enough times.
Average market price per pound is now $99 in the Midwest. We'll be enjoying some Canadian and Russian crab legs for a while from now. It's ridiculous.
Awesome video I learned something new and I really appreciate it
What a great video
I've never eaten lobster or crab legs. I was always curious. Am trying this tomorrow.
We hope you enjoy!
@@HeinensFoods I made them. It was different. Good different. Like, I want more different ;D. Thanks!
It's the most delicious meat you can ever eat.
@@jalissaarchuleta6736 Agreed. Tried it the other day and it’s way better than chicken
@@Warblaster glad you liked it now the bad news is you are going to be addicted to them like the rest of us sometimes you won't even care how much they cost you just know you're eating some of that day
Can you bake or steam them right out of the freezer? Otherwise what is the quickest way to thaw them.
Thank you so much. I was gifted like 10 lbs of king crab legs and I had no idea how to prepare them
Wow you have great friends wish I got a gift like that
Damn I just found out I have cancer and before I die that's all I want is to be able to try some king crab legs...I eat a lot snow crab but I really want to try the big ones...you have great friends especially gifting 10lbs...wow🤤
Easy 🎉thank you for sharing had no idea. Can I cut them by the join to make them fit in a smaller pot?
Yes you can, I do it all the time.
good content here!
If it has not been precooked how long would you cook it?
If they are precooked, can I just microwave?
Were these frozen or fresh?
Steamed in the oven? It looks like there is water on the baking sheet? But not inside the wrapped crab legs? I'm confused.
Oh! I thought it was John Oliver
oh YES

Hey can someone tell me, should u season or put lemon juice/ or slices in w the k.carb legs when u bake them?
Tastiest,easiest to prepare food on Earth !
Cant wait baby
I'm going to steam them today. Hope all goes well....fingers crossed 🤞 🙏
Can you oven steam King Crab Legs right out of the freezer?
Are these from frozen or thawed from fridge ?
Most crab is frozen cause where it comes from is too far to not freeze it
You can do it
The spikes are too sharp, help?!?
Seasoning 🙊
Exactly 🤣
Trust me, obronis deh love no seasoning
Did you steam them frozen or thawed?
You can steam them frozen
Hi Gloria - These crab legs were actually fresh, but this steaming method works with frozen, too. Simply thaw the crab legs in your refrigerator one day before you plan to steam them.
How many cups of water to use
But why you putting parsley on the shells? 😂
Chef #👨🍳สวัสดีครับเชฟ🎉
could you eat crab legs without cooking them?
It's pre-cooked, recommend re heating it using one of the methods
Boiling, steam, bake or grill
$40/lb now
What about if you get fresh king crab? How long will it take to steam?
Hi There - The king crab legs used in this recipe were fresh, so they will steam within 5-7 minutes. If using frozen, we recommend allowing them to thaw one day prior to cooking. They can then steam for the same amount of time as fresh crab legs. Thank you for your questions.

Why butter. Why not habanero sauce
