How to Make Joe's Crab Shack Garlic King Crab Legs By Todd Wilbur
- Fill a large pot halfway (about 6 quarts) with water and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Bring to a rolling boil.
- Crush 10-12 cloves of unpeeled garlic with a mallet and add them to the boiling water along with 1 tablespoon of dried parsley flakes.
- Boil the garlic mixture for 15 minutes to infuse the water with flavor.
- While the garlic water boils, cut the crab legs in half lengthwise. This ensures even cooking and easier eating.
- Optionally, slit each crab leg lengthwise with a sharp knife (this is optional and instead of poking holes) to allow the flavorful garlic water to penetrate more easily.
- Gently lower the crab legs into the boiling garlic water.
- Cook the crab legs for 5-6 minutes, or until heated through and slightly tender. Avoid overcooking.
- Remove the crab legs from the pot using tongs and drain well.
- Serve immediately with melted butter (approximately 1/2 cup) on the side for dipping.
- Enjoy your restaurant-quality crab legs at home!
