We make crab legs every New Year and they're actually pretty easy at home. Get 1- 1/2 to 2 lbs lb per person at least. I myself can eat 3 lbs before dinner and I am a small person, but I LOVE crab legs.

We buy Alaskan King crab at a fish market downtown; it's flown in daily and we buy fresh only. Fresh is always best, purchased on the morning of the same day as you plan to cook it. NEVER buy fish from a market on a Monday. It is usually leftover from Friday. And unless you buy it already frozen, do not try to freeze your fresh crab to try and keep it.

We use a huge tall pot, that is heavy bottomed and has large handles riveted on the side, as once filled with water it is VERY heavy. Ours is about 20 quarts or larger in size. HUGE.

We use an "orka" silicone cooking glove that goes all the way to my shoulder, to put legs into the pot and remove them. It is boil and heat safe and you can grasp the legs easier than with tongs.

Rinse legs quickly in cold water, drain on paper towels and set aside before cooking. Never soak them or set them in standing water. Unlike clams or mussels, they don't need to be cleaned before cooking in that way.

Fill pot 3/4 full, add small handful of salt and bring to full rolling boil (this will take some time due to the amt of water ). Add legs, arge bump or cluster that holds legs together at bottom, legs up. Do in batches or use two pots , if pot is not big enough to fit them all, with plenty of room between clusters.

Cook no more than 8 to 10 minutes for a large bunch of meaty legs or cook ony until legs get an orange- reddish or brighter color, before removing, draining and throwing on a large platter and serving.

The outside shells should be softer than before cooking, but not mushy or like wet paper. They should still crack or snap when joints are bent and snapped to open and reveal crab meat inside.

Some people like to eat them plain, as we do; I find good crab to be sweet and tasty enough. Others may want clarified/melted butter to dip pieces into or lemons to squeeze over the crab legs or removed meat.

Do not refrigerate or try to freeze/store the cooked legs; they will taste mushy and strange. You can remove the meat from the shells and put in fridge for one day, to use later in a crab salad or other dish. But do not try to keep the removed meat more than a day or two.

To choose your fresh crab legs, always sniff and look carefully at the color and texture. If it is really fishy or off smelling, it is old or bad, do not buy. If it is very pale, gray or grayish in color, do not buy. If it slimy, do not buy. Shell of the legs should be, when fresh, slightly orangish or reddish in tone, with white or creamy colors, shell should be hard or firm and the overall smell should be, well, fairly non-smelly. It may smell a bit of salt or seawater, but if you smell it and go "whew, that's fishy", then it's off or bad.
