The Ultimate Guide to Crab Legs & Premium Seafood โ€” Delivered to Your Door

There's nothing quite like cracking into a perfectly cooked crab leg โ€” the sweet, briny meat, the satisfying pull, the sense of occasion it brings to any table. Whether you're planning a special dinner, a summer seafood feast, or stocking your freezer with the finest the ocean has to offer, The Table Gourmet has you covered with a curated selection of premium crab legs and seafood delivered straight to your door.

King Crab Legs: The Crown Jewel of Seafood

Alaskan and Chilean King Crab are the gold standard โ€” massive, meaty legs with a rich, slightly sweet flavor that needs very little embellishment. Here's how to navigate our selection:

The Merus Cut โ€” For the Purist

Large Premium King Crab Merus โ€“ 20 lb โ€” The merus is the largest, meatiest section of the king crab leg โ€” the part closest to the body. Pre-cut and ready to serve, this is the choice for restaurants, caterers, and home cooks who want maximum meat with minimum effort. Wild-caught, flash-frozen, and exceptional.

Snow Crab: Sweet, Delicate, and Endlessly Snackable

Jumbo Snow Crab Legs Clusters โ€“ 10 lb โ€” Snow crab is the everyday hero of the crab world: thinner shells, sweeter meat, and easier to crack than king crab. These jumbo clusters are perfect for a backyard crab boil, a seafood platter, or a casual dinner that still feels special.

How to Cook Crab Legs at Home

Our crab legs arrive pre-cooked and flash-frozen โ€” all you need to do is reheat them. Here are the three best methods:

Steaming (Best Method): Add 1โ€“2 inches of water to a large pot with a steamer basket. Bring to a boil, add crab legs, cover, and steam for 5โ€“7 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately with drawn butter.

Baking: Preheat oven to 375ยฐF. Place crab legs on a baking sheet, brush with melted butter and garlic, cover with foil, and bake for 7โ€“10 minutes. Finish under the broiler for 2 minutes for a slightly caramelized edge.

Boiling: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add crab legs and cook for 4โ€“5 minutes. Drain and serve with lemon and butter.

Pro tip: Thaw overnight in the refrigerator for the best texture. If you're short on time, run cold water over the legs for 20โ€“30 minutes before cooking.

What to Serve with Crab Legs

  • Drawn butter with garlic and fresh lemon
  • Cocktail sauce and tartar sauce (try our Inglehoffer Variety Pack)
  • Corn on the cob and red potatoes for a classic crab boil
  • A crisp Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, or light lager
  • Crusty sourdough bread to soak up the butter
