I normally like his videos but this is not how you smoke good snowcrabs. You first do a half boil in butter,water and your seasonings to infuse flavor. Then you put them on the grill at a low temp and cook slow with your favorite wood to add smoke flavor. Use your leftover seasoning broth and dip crabs in it every 10 minutes until your desired smoke level is achieved. If you want them super flavourful. Break legs up off body in the beginning and when you put them on grill use a pan with holes in it. Come on bro I thought you knew better, we know those crabs had no flavor.
I know this is weird but I asked Chatser AI about basting the crab shells. Here is it’s answer: “As an AI language model, I do not have personal experience with cooking, but as per my knowledge, the basting of butter and lemon juice can penetrate the shells of snow crabs to some extent, but the degree of penetration may vary depending on the thickness and hardness of the shell. However, most of the flavor and moisture will be absorbed by the meat inside the shell. It is essential to baste the crab frequently while cooking to enhance the flavor and ensure even cooking.”!
That's like seasoning an egg while it's still in the shell

I am going to the bank tomorrow and get a loan so I can buy some crab legs to smoke.
Lol when he said son, you know they were bussin 😂
Why not just use the butter sauce for dipping instead of basting the shell that really serves no purpose?

When he said “SON!” I felt that 😂😂😂
That’s a big tablespoon 😂
Awesome!!!!
I bet that shell tastes bomb😂
It would have been nice if he included the temperature 😢
This man haven't missed yet. Everything he touch is fire
Looks great what temperature did you use
I remember going to a restaurant in Freeport TX that did this when I was a kid. Those were the best crab legs ever.
DAMN!!! They look good. What temperature did you smoke them at?
Try injecting some of the marinade into the shells before putting them on the grill. 💯
He said the heats gonna help them thaw out 😂😂😂😂 yes sir your on point with that one!
I never saw someone crack a crab leg so perfect
Can’t wait to get my EBT get me some crab legs 😋
Love this guy and I'm sure smoking them is great but basting a shell and then call them juicy as tht butter runs off is a stretch
