Comment préparer Beer Steamed Crabs

In a 6-quart pot, combine 4 cups of water, 12 ounces of your favorite beer (lager or pilsner recommended), 1-2 teaspoons of crushed red pepper flakes (adjust to your spice preference), 4 bay leaves, and 2 tablespoons of Old Bay seasoning. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
Carefully add 2-3 pounds of live, uncleaned crabs to the boiling liquid. (Adjust the crab quantity based on your serving size).
Once the liquid returns to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the crabs are bright red and the meat is easily pulled from the legs.
Remove the crabs from the pot using tongs and serve immediately. Enjoy with extra beer and plenty of melted butter for dipping!
