@HungryChris – how do you heat your crab legs? I’ve never eaten them or King crab legs at home. Alton Brown recommends the microwave.
@Kim Shook, I have found that the best results are gotten when you buy the crab frozen and keep it frozen until you are ready to heat it up. Put it, still frozen, in a steamer basket, in a large covered pot over boiling water and keep the heat on high until about 2 minutes after the steam starts rattling the lid.
