Reviews
They tasted like stale old beer. I used Pilsner Urquell,
Excellent recipe. Added 2 teaspoons of Old Bay Seasoning to the beer boil. Added clove garlic to the drawn butter, love garlic. Definitely the easiest and best way to serve Alaskan Red King Crab Legs.
Love it
Taste great! Loved the strong stout undertone in the crab meat. I added some crab boil and it was delicious…
Delicious turned out great
Excellent… Great for a Family event!
