Instant Pot Crab Legs

[@portiahayes9127]

My son (13 ) loves crab legs and he just cooked some in my pressure cooker about 4 days ago. Very easy😊

[@MommahElaine]

Now look what you did! Where am I going to get crab legs to cook at 1:15 AM?!

[@LadyBereness812]

SweetMommah same here and due to disability I’m unable to drive Hoping my adult Son comes tomorrow to take me shopping and LOL he doesn’t eat Seafood! More for me! At least twice a year I go to an all you can eat crab leg/seafood restaurant. My Daughter & I usually go for our birthdays and we certainly get our money’s worth. We couldn’t wait this year... my birthday was just 4 days ago, hers is in 2 1/2 WKS, so we went early! We went in June! 😂

[@veronicaj758]

Lol

[@twidget59]

I KNOW! #lol

[@rhianariana6830]

SweetMommah try Walmart

[@deeabbey1791]

I tried your recipe, first time cooking crab legs. I added the powder instead of the liquid and followed recipe with a pat of butter. Frozen for 4 minutes. Tasted better than the restaurant. Thank you!

[@GeminiAngel526]

Looks delicious... dont know how you only eat one cluster I can eat about 5 clusters by myself. I love crab legs!!!

[@veronicaj758]

Same here

[@simplyme336]

That part!! I love me some crab legs

[@Tricey.89]

Yes girl! My bill at a seafood restaurant hardly ever under $70!

[@blane6592]

RIGHT! With Shrimp and Lobster tails! 🤣🤣🤣🤣I’m greedy!

[@leeyates189]

Ooooo oo

[@mandymiller5677]

Oh my goodness I’m so excited! I have an 8 QT and I’m thinking of making crab legs for New Year’s Eve!

[@Piper_Mahan]

Today is my husband's birthday. I made him steak, crab legs and all the fixings to go with it. Thank you... thank you... thank you for this video! He was so happy with his birthday meal. He said the crab legs were very good!

[@MarianneCastiglia]

I made these this weekend and they were INSANELY delicious. The garlic butter was amazing too BUT.... seriously the flavor in those crab legs were so wonderful that I won't bother with the garlic butter next time. If health and weight were no issue, fine but really you do NOT need the butter with this recipe. OMG I cannot wait to make these again!

[@kathiglomb9490]

Love when Richard gets into the kitchen. You guys are great!!

[@johncantrell614]

The sauce you made I am sure is good, but one time, try this.: in a small bowl or sauce cup, pour a small pile of salt, then a small pile of sugar, then a small pile of black pepper. After that, get a few halves of fresh lemon, and squeeze a good bit over this, until you have the sauce cup about 1/2 full of lemon juice. Stir it all well. Take a tiny taste. If it is too tart, add a bit more sugar. If it is too sweet, add a bit more lemon juice. My wife is from Vietnam, and this is a quick and easy dipping sauce for crab, shrimp, steamed oysters, pretty much any seafood, but it tastes so good on crab legs. I never ate many of them before my wife showed me this great lemon pepper dip. Give it a try sometime!

[@urssysplace2622]

Oh Jeffery thank you so much for showing how to cook crab legs...everytime I see them in the market I'm so intimidated to buy them because I have no idea how to prepare them and not ruin a little pricey investment of seafood. I am definitely going to try this with the 'garlic butta' lol You ROCK my 'Instant Pot' world...hahaha....say hello to Richard! He looks like my nephew when he takes off his glasses...wow....(my brothers name is "Richard" and his son is my nephew) take care you guys...and keep your culinary 'creative juices' flowing....hahahaha...I'm making your famous Stroganoff for our tomorrows Sundays dinner...made it a few times and it is always a HUGE hit... Urssy from Canada

[@Liz-ch9zc]

"Richard, get in here and try this!" LOLOL you guys are the best!!! DAMN I WANT CRAB LEGS NOW! Making this for Valentine's Day :) Thank you

[@tylord1966]

Fantastic - thank you so much. I cooked them immediately after watching your video. So good and sweet and meat came out whole. Just heaven. My husband doesn’t care for them but he buys them for me so YEESSS I am one lucky woman!

[@lindawatson1779]

I’m from Maryland and we know about steamed crabs especially the blue crab. Love your videos!!❤️

[@lucilleball5970]

OMG.....What a super easy way to cook crab legs, and best is getting it perfect everytime….. Instant Pot is just the best. Thanks so much for this...… Claudia

[@TheWilkenator]

You're not cooking the crab legs. If they are red or orange they have already been cooked. You are just reheating them and this is an excellent use of the insta-pot for reheating.

[@stephaniethomas256]

Oh man. Craving crab legs now! Great video ❤️

[@billykilcoyne8241]

Thx for saving me money as I came on KZbin looking for a steamer for crab legs. Didn't realize I already had the perfect tool sitting on my counter top!

[@leef6041]

I made this dish over the weekend- it was cooked perfectly- followed your instructions to the letter. Thank you! It was a hit at the party! :)

[@Stressed2Capacity]

OMG! I love watching Jeff cook! I'm getting addicted!!!!

[@HyeFelicia]

Wow something else I can cook in my Instant Pot!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@Jrsun4ever]

I’m making this tonight as one of my send off dinners for my son who is leaving for college at the end of this week. Hoping it’s good!! I’m sure it will be! All of your stuff is delicious!

[@maureenr970]

OMG Jeffrey, you've outdone yourself this time! Crab is my favorite thing to eat EVER! I can only afford them once or twice a year, but the wait so worth it. My favorite is the Dungeness crab, mmm,mmm,mmmmm! My tongue is hanging to the floor n salivating profusely, lol.... Next favorite is diver scallops.....what can you come up with for them? 👍👍🍴👍👍 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

[@toolstudios]

relax maureen

[@Imatelitlikitis]

This guy is too funny. Presentation is everything! I enjoyed this video. Thank u.

[@anna1128dav]

Wonderful !! Looks so delicious !! Love Crab leg Thanks for sharing !! 😀❤️😀

[@PaullaWells]

Just in time for my birthday this Saturday! I get crab legs every year for the occasion!

[@marykl6919]

My first thought was - “why would you use an IP to cook crab legs?” But I get it now! 😊 Really glad I watched this, and of course now I’m thinking about making a beach run for fresh crab legs.

[@paulkuras18]

Everybody always wants to see Richard thanks guys from Canada 2023

[@leonard8510]

Instant Pot is the best thing to ever happen for making seafood at home. Your shrimp scampi is probably my favorite thing ever. Going to have to get me some crab legs to try now. Stay awesome, Jeffrey!

[@CristinaD84]

Jeff you're killin me!!! Born & raised in Maryland here 🙋‍♀️ and that is just entirely NOT ENOUGH Old Bay 😭😩

[@gac914]

After watching enough episodes of "Deadliest Catch," you can kind of understand why it's "not too frugal". . . . . . ;-)

[@char1737]

Thanks to your channel you have rekindled my love for my Instant pot! I live for the recipes you post, keep up the good content !

[@paullaks7678]

Really got to say, I love your channel. Your attitude and the cooking and everything about it, it makes watching the video a fun experience instead of it just a video I watch for a recipe. Keep up the good work!

[@adamcarr8738]

Your Garlic Butter is pure genius! Perhaps Beer instead of Chicken Better Than Bouillon? I’m off to see my fish monger…

[@acolyteambassador]

Come to learn how Jeffrey cooks his crab legs ~ stay for that garlic butter dipping sauce. Holy moley!

[@z00k]

Hah! This was the first recipe video I ever looked up and I was like "this is my reason to get an instant pot!". Well, fast forward quite a while and we got one. I searched up instead how to do a beef and broccoli recipe and it wasn't until I started writing this comment that I realized that recipe was from you as well. It was incredible and now I'm buying everything right now for this recipe for a meal later this week. Definitely subscribing! ❤️

[@dianewilson4366]

Hay Jeff,the instapot does cook to perfection, I love it!

[@cars1963]

For over a year now I've been making crab legs in the instant pot any chance I get. I make them frozen and add only water to the the pot. I steam them for 7 minutes and they're perfect.

[@crumpfamilyvalues7935]

My family loves this recipe! I have made it twice since stumbling across your channel last month.

[@Jonahstrials]

Can't wait to try them! I have a Ninja Foodi,but I am sure it is the same.

[@redgingerbreadpam]

Oh I know these were amazing! I do a Shrimp feast with Onions, potatoes & corn using the Zatarains, Slap ya mama Cajun seasoning. Its super easy & omg delicious. I'll be doing a video on it, in fact tomorrow. We thinking on same "wave" 😏😂😂😂

[@rcarney712]

I'm in CA and see them fresh all the time at Costco . I would probably only have to use the steam setting, but the sauce you made looks amazing.

[@brigreer4583]

Loved your video! PSA, don’t thaw with warm water. Use cold water to thaw food.

[@crow9669]

Oh em gee!! Now I need to go buy some crab legs ASAP

[@lucentdepths643]

you can fit the crab in much easier breaking the legs from the clusters and placing the cluster part on top. Also - never "rinse with warm water". Always always always use cold water. It is still warmer than frozen and will thaw them quickly, but without worrying about letting them get too warm which is not safe. Edit: Adding something else: better than bouillon is such a great product and now I've got a new way to use it. Adding the garlic base to the butter sounds so good and so easy (and easy is one of the reasons I love the BTB products)

[@sburris65]

I will save this to my insta pot play list for my hubby (who is getting me one of these things for Christmas)..I have shellfish allergies so my tummy hurts thinking about it! And hi Richard !!!

[@melaniecoulter5692]

Making this tomorrow night!! Can’t wait!!

[@dedecolwell2691]

WHOA!!! Once again, you sold me!! Jeffrey, have you have pressure cooked Lobster? I'd love your recipe! Thank you!! You're THE BEST!

[@ANNPOLLARD1967]

Now I want some Crab Legs. Great job Jeff!!!!

[@BriarLeaf00]

I love watching your channel just for your amazing accent. I feel like you'd meet me on the street and invite me over for some matzoh ball soup.

[@kimmelpage5162]

Bout to try this right now! Think I was cooking mine to long!! Thank you

[@doristrice9246]

Man I’m going to try this now..thx was scar 2put crab n t pressure cooker.

[@sherieclifford9983]

Recipe outstanding!!!!!! When you were describing different funny names for them, I thought they looked like EDWARD SCISSOR HANDS, lol

[@livingwiththelyons2938]

I just got one of these and I am new to your channel. I can not wait to try some of your recipes !

[@patrickgarrett496]

I came here to find out if I can cook crab in the instant pot and I also got a crab eating lesson 🤣❤️

[@williamdontag2903]

It’s 3am in the morning and I’m sitting my alarm to go get some crazy in about 6 hrs 💀😅😅

[@jibrilbuilder2668]

Richard be eating Good af

[@soundwavepiano8853]

Thanks for making me *CRAVE* crab legs at 3 a.m.!! Arrrrrgggghh!

[@teyes400]

This works great!.. I often buy frozen blue crab leg clusters (uncooked ), from a market up the street. Will this method work for these as well?

[@MrZachxd]

Holy heck that looks good. Great video. Thank you!

[@camwae]

I enjoyed watching you eat the crab legs. 😂

[@lilyt5855]

Interesting! I've never eaten crab legs, or really even knew how to get the meat out of them, but you made it look easy.

[@capemaxi]

Susan P , there are how to videos on eating crab and whole lobster on You Tube. Watch and you’ll be up to the task.

[@JCNY718]

I’m gonna need two clusters to myself at a minimum lol

[@dom3029]

I know that Zatarain’s is pretty powerful, but did the instant pot seal absorb the crab boil odor?

[@simplyshaun1128]

I was thinking that as well. Likely to clean and then deep clean...and of course store unsealed. I only have one ring (new pot) so we’ll see what happens. Best of luck!

[@sing6257]

Yes it did

[@connietoliver2317]

I’m going to try this Jeffrey (actually I can’t wait), thanks. 🙏

[@lindawatson1779]

You guys are so funny and what a great cook you are!!!

[@jordanstarcher3782]

This is amazing, definitely going to do this!Can you do a lobster tail video, please?

[@margo6663]

Just went to the grocery store today......now I have to go again!!!!!

[@lisayerace5578]

My favorite food! Can’t wait to try it in the IP! And that BUTTAH! Mmmmmmm

[@arlenemurphy804]

Richards, never had these before. Will try them! Been cooking shrimp with great success. Would that broth be good for a seafood chowder? You are amazing.

[@priteshpatel7673]

Could you use the garlic butter spread on crusty bread to make garlic bread or garlic toast?

[@SandwichLady]

Pritesh Patel, sure, why not! All the ingredients would be delicious for garlic bread, but you probably would NOT need to melt the butter. Just soften and then add the other ingredients before spreading on the bread.

[@dom3029]

Love, Love, Love Snow Crab Legs!!! Will definitely try this recipe. Thanks!

[@jessicashanker6084]

You are so great. Love love your channel

[@HowToAPPL]

Haha instructional and entertaining 😂 thanks

[@thomassmith4616]

Looks like you two had a blast recording this LOL

[@jkledis]

Richard's lucky more ways than one!

[@LadyBereness812]

OMG it looks so yummy that my mouth watered as you guys were eating! Just wondering if you think you could do Lobster that way as well! My Husband, God rest his soul, always prepared a Lobster Feast for us on New Years Eve but I’ve never had the nerve to try making it mysel. Also, have you ever done a Clam Bake this way or is it even possible? I have a 6 quart IP just sitting on my kitchen counter waiting for me to try out! Thanks for the amazing recipes, I’ve saved all your YT video’s, shared with others & now I’m off to find you on FB. In the past I always typed in all CAPS as I have MS/Multiple Sclerosis, blind in my left eye and needing surgery on my right eye; so please forgive & overlook any typo’s I may have made. Vision’s so bad tonight that I can’t even see to try to edit. I’ll leave you with my famous {{{HUGGZ}}} ~Su Many people don’t realize it’s me as I’m working hard to text in regular size text, not using all CAPS, but they do remember my heartfelt {{{GUGGZ}}}

[@sarahcrain8083]

Sudan Napoli Berens sending prayers for healing your way. Stay strong and God bless.

[@felipefonseca6483]

This may seem like a stupid question.... but the only grocery store near me sell previously frozen cooked crab. Will this process work on this particulary product? Any help would be appreciated. BTW... Great Video in any case I will definitely try the sauce.

[@poodlescone9700]

Liquid crab boil!? What sorcery is this!?

[@toddsmale4577]

Looks so good.... one question could you use what's in the pot over again to make more or do I need to make a new batch.

[@LizT207]

Amazing!

[@MsPampam25]

I love your channel ❤️

[@TheKamakuraGardener]

I’m on it! 🤤🤤🤤😋😋😋👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you - snow crab is our favorite dinner and I never considered using the pressure pot

[@stinkydroolface]

I wonder if the seafood base would be better than the chicken for this recipe.

[@TheWilkenator]

Indeed. Try it with some salted water with lemon and the concentrate.

[@capemaxi]

Use some Old Bay in the cooking broth.

[@simplyme336]

I’m so doing this today

[@MsKeyIngredient]

I'm Sooooo HAPPY 4 U 😋

[@hellestinebeamon1717]

Are you using 1 cup of broth and 1 cup of water with bullion?

[@AntonShields]

You’re a nut...lol but I love it I really did at least you bring some personality to it and it made me laugh and I got to give you props for it. And by the way your version of dipping sauce was really good I enjoyed it..

[@Smootus]

Jeffrey, your face looks thinner! Look like you got this crab recipient down to a fine art... I think when I do this I will add half a lemon for some additional flavor! Thanks for posting this video.

[@bobbihawkins3844]

I love you Jeff but I love Richard too!!!!

[@soundwavepiano8853]

New subscriber by the way!

[@jamesanderson2638]

Made in the ninja foodi came out awesome!!

[@susantroxell7396]

Just a quick suggestion from the West Coast: Dungeness Crab - way, way better flavor!!

[@TheGerty15]

Let me throw my crab legs in this instapot

[@moyeramoyer8478]

Try to filter your butter through a coffee filter for a purified butter

[@Justme-kb2dr]

I got crabs lol..😂

[@stephw6046]

That’s some delicious looking meat! 😍🦀

[@kristencomstock8305]

I got my Instant Pot for Christmas and made your pot roast recipe as my first meal. Hoping to make crab legs soon! I was trying to research making a crab stock recipe in the instant pot using the discarded shells. Any ideas? I’ve never made any stock before, but as you said, “waste not, want not.” Thanks!

[@melissacrowley6824]

You are FABULOUS! Thank you! Thank you! I was so hoping you would do crab 🦀 legs. You are just the best. Kiss Richard for me.

[@DK-ji9ez]

I luv u guys

[@alexwilkie6518]

But what do you do when they are fresh/live crab legs?
