Crab Legs with Basil Pesto Sauce.

 

Our crab comes cooked! Just thaw, sauce and enjoy! 

Frozen cooked crab legs are a convenient option because they come pre-cooked and flash-frozen to maintain their fresh, sweet flavor. This means all you need to do is heat them up and enjoy!

Crab Legs with Basil Pesto Sauce. 

  • 2 to 4 pounds Alaska Crab legs (King, Snow or Dungeness), thawed or frozen

Butter Sauce 

  • 1/2 cup unsalted melted butter

Tips for the Best Crab Leg Experience
