  • Best way to make crab legs are grilling them over an open flame. Crab legs are one of my favorite things to eat. Alaskan King crab legs taste great cooked a variety of different ways. I tried King Crab legs on the griddle for the first time and wanted to do a comparison against Grilling King Crab Legs. In this video I show you 2 different ways to make Alaskan King Crab grilled and on the Blackstone Griddle. Both were excellent however I did have one that I liked slightly better than the other. Best way to make crab legs is with fire on a grill.
    Steaming crab legs while they taste good I think grilled crab legs get that extra bit of flavor from the flame and the kiss of fire. Both Griddled Crab legs on the blackstone Griddle and Fire cooked crab legs are good tho and you cant go wrong with preparing the Crab legs either way but the best way to make crab legs is on a grill.

    Haha!! This was great man! You know we gotta go with the Blackstone! 🔥🔥😄😄. Man, they both looked amazing - love the use of steam - do you think tossing some ice cubes on the griddle would have prolonged the steaming, or would it have even needed more? You seemed like you had the perfect amount just using water. Gotta say, this may be something we’ll have to do! Smashed the like button (even though our Blackstone didn’t win...😜😜) - great job as always man!🤙🤙🔥🔥. GRIDDLE ON!

    Man those crab legs with the citrus butter sauce both looked delicious Jason! I’ll have to say I’d probably give the edge to the pk as well, gotta love flame. As far as ideas, maybe jalapeño poppers, Crunchwrap supreme copycat or flank steak tacos. Great job brother!

    I have two Black stones, and I have two PK's... Love them all !!! BUT, I will always give the nod for flavor to PK, the nod for convenience to Blackstone. Both platforms are great, but in my opinion have their own particular niche. Can't go wrong, either way !!!
