    Here is my Amazon Affiliate Link to the Instant Pot I use: amzn.to/3yi5slW
    Ingredients
    1 cup water
    1 1/2-2 pounds crab legs
    1/2 fresh lemon Any size will work.
    1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
    1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning Optional
    Optional Lemon Garlic Butter
    2 tablespoons butter Melted
    3 garlic cloves Minced
    1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
    1/2 fresh lemon I use the lemon after it's pressure cooked with the crab.
    Instructions
    Place the trivet (that comes with the Instant Pot) into the bottom of the pot.
    Pour in 1 cup of water along with the spices.
    Add in the crab legs and the lemon.
    Place the lid on the pot and seal. Cook for 1 minute on Manual High Pressure Cooking.
    When the pot indicates it has finished, quick release the steam.
    Serve the crab legs immediately.
    Optional Garlic Butter
    Combine the ingredients in a bowl and stir.

    Made this recipe, added extra seasoning came out great! Crabs were crunchy and easy to break. No more using my teeth!

    Wow, this video was so helpful. I learned so much about the different locations to crack the crab legs to get all of the meat. I was probably unintentionally throwing away crab meat before. Love this video...thank you Brandi!! 🙌🏽🔥💜

    I love using distilled water it forces more moisture into whatever your cooking. Just basic osmosis.

    One thing I would do differently is make sure the bottom of the crab legs touching the sauce… that’s how it gets the flavor.

    Very good way since it should steam them plump, especially when the crabs are running skinny on the meat.

    I came across this after watching a video of a guy preparing smoked crab legs. Having a pressure cooker, I knew there had to be a video of the process.

  • @merovingian688
    @merovingian688 ปีที่แล้ว

    I use a pressure cooker whenever I can to speed up the process without ruining the meal. Pinto beans in 45 minutes for example.

    Recently bought some crab claws and stumbled upon this video after looking up insta pot recipes and such! I think you've earned a subscribe from me. This was super helpful, even right down to how to crack legs and where you focus with the cracking tool.

    I'm from Maryland, been a fan of blue crabs my entire life. I've been craving crabs, my local grocery store only has king crab legs. I don't have a steamer and I was wondering today if I could do it in the instant pot. And this video was SO helpful! I really like your style too lol. And when the crab gets everywhere, sometimes it be like that! But thats just part of the fun!!! Thanks so much for the video!

    I've got an instant pot and an air fryer. Which do you recommend for crab legs?

    • @staysnatched
      @staysnatched  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on how you like them. If you want flavor baked into them, then air fryer.
