Hello I came across your channel on TH-cam. I thank you so much for the information given on crab legs.
Excellent job of explaining the differences between Snow Crab and the King Crab. Thank you so much.
I have the greatest addiction to snow crab legs. Ever since l saw yhem in Cape Hattaras.
Great video and so glad I found it. I learned a lot as well. Thankyou
Saying that 1 king crab leg would be enough😒😒😒 I know if hungry, I can eat 10 of those King Legs, however my bank account would get pissed off.😂🤣😂 This video made me hungry again.
Very good video. Great job explaining and showing how to get to the meat without fighting the shells. Great job.
Great video !!
i was thinking, he must have superman hands, how is he handling the spiny legs with bare hands. then I saw the bleeding from his index finger. thanks for taking one for the team!

Husband bought me some. Cooked them and have more then we can eat. Can we store until tomorrow in fridge or should we freeze them.
Interesting, I had no idea that there were (commercially caught) crab in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
The best way to go at king crab is to not break it on the knuckles or the joints
Crack in the center comes right out
When it comes to king crab, the shell is closer to 30% then 20%. But that can change drastically if they're frozen! Read on!
I've bought these FLASH *FROZEN,* and *THAWED.*
Obviously the shell is waste.
After removing the crab and re-weighing the meat and shells, here's what I found.
At $37 per pound *THAWED,* (which I bought today) it works out to around $50 per pound after you subtract the weight of the shell.
At $29 per pound FLASH *FROZEN* (which I bought last year) it works out to around $100 per pound.
The *_HUGE_* difference is because inside the legs there's a good amount of water filling the voids when they flash freeze them. After they thaw, that water drains out.
So if you're buying these frozen, you're paying for meat, the shell and lots of *hidden ICE!*
_While it seems like a 'no-brainer' to buy these thawed, you have to ask how long they've been thawed, because the taste does degrade (becoming less sweet) as they sit unfrozen in the case._
It was noticeable enough so the next time I buy king crab, it will be 'partially' frozen.
*I hope this helps!*
