Product Information: Alaska Golden King Crab

The Alaska Golden King Crab legs are wild-caught, pre-cooked, and flash-frozen to maintain their flavor and freshness. These crab legs are a delicacy that can be enjoyed chilled or reheated, making them a versatile seafood option for any meal.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Thaw: Remove the crab legs from the freezer and thaw them in the refrigerator overnight. Alternatively, you can place them in a sealed plastic bag and submerge them in cold water for 30 minutes to an hour.
  2. Prepare: Once thawed, rinse the crab legs under cold tap water. You can serve the crab legs cold or reheat them, depending on your preference. If you choose to reheat them, it’s important to heat them gently to avoid overcooking. Here are three options for reheating:
    • Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the crab legs with melted butter or oil and place them on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are heated through.
    • Steam: Fill a large pot 1/3 full of water and bring it to a boil. Place the crab legs in a steamer basket over the boiling water and cover with a lid. Heat gently for a few minutes until they are warmed through.
    • Roast: Preheat your oven to 375°F. Place the crab legs on a baking sheet and brush them with melted butter or oil. Bake for 10-12 minutes until they are heated through.
  3. Enjoy: Once the crab legs are heated through, use kitchen shears to cut open the underside of the legs (the white smooth part) and crack open the shell with your fingers. Pull out the crab meat, dip it into melted butter, and enjoy!

Preparation Steps

Alaska Golden King crab legs are pre-cooked and flash frozen to preserve their wild-caught taste. To prepare at home, simply thaw, rinse and serve chilled or reheated.

  • STEP 1: Thaw
    If frozen, we recommend thawing Golden King crab legs in the refrigerator. Place legs on a rimmed tray, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to thaw 8–12 hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator.
    We suggest using King crab legs as soon as they have been defrosted but they may also be kept for a day or two in the refrigerator.

  • STEP 2: Prepare
    Once thawed, rinse the crab under cold tap water. Golden King crab legs can be eaten cold or reheated if you prefer to serve your crab warm. Since the crab is already cooked, it is important to heat gently to avoid overcooking. Grilling, steaming, and roasting are all good options.

    • Grill
      Heat grill to medium-high heat. Brush legs with olive oil and place on grill. Cook for 1–2 minutes, flip and heat for an additional 1–2 minutes until the crab meat is warm.

    • Steam
      Fill a large pot 1/3 full with water and bring to a boil. Place legs in a steamer basket over the boiling water and cover with a lid. Heat gently for a just a few minutes. The crab will omit a crab aroma once it is warmed.

    • Roast
      Preheat oven to 350°F. Add crab legs and 1/8 inch of water to shallow baking pan. Cover with foil and bake for 3–4 minutes until just heated.

  • STEP 3: Enjoy
    Use kitchen shears to cut open the underside of the crab legs (the white smooth part), cracking open the shell with your fingers. Pull out the crab meat, dip into melted butter and enjoy!
