Jess My Seafood Boil

Holy Crab Legs!

So I made my own crab boil seasoning and also created a butter garlic drizzle!
It was so good and also so easy to make. I made it because we bought a shit ton of these for a good price and I was jess trying to get creative.

  I really recommend thinking about how you like your crab to be seasoned and also possibly the crabs a little seasoning ahead of time so that the flavor really sticks. Making sure they are thawed is a good idea but its not really necessary.

Try it for yourselves and let me know what you guys think about it!


 Jess what you need:
2LBS of thawed or close to thawed crab legs
1 Garlic Cloves
3 stems Parsley
3 pats of Butter
2 Bay Leaves
1 teaspoon of Old Bays Seasoning
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 tablespoon Red Cayenne Pepper (we like the spice)
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper
Garlic Salt
 4-6 cups of water depending on your pot
13 x 18 Long Pan
Skillet


In a large pot, boil 4-6 cups of water. (20 minutes) depending on your stove type. Bring to a boil. Once its boiling: add bay leaves, old bays, cumin, cayenne pepper, sea salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Essentially your water should look deep red. Once the water is rolling with boil, add your crab legs.
Once your crab legs have boiled for about 10 minutes.

While your crab is boiling preheat oven to broiler setting (LOW).
As crab is boiling. In a skillet add 2-3 pats of butter, garlic chopped up, and parsley. Once the garlic is starting to brow remove from heat. Be sure not to keep crab in the water after 15 minutes, you don't want to over cook your crab legs! 
Remove crab from pot into your long pan. Once you've got them in the pan. Drizzle your butter all over them. Put them in the broiler for 3-4 minutes.
