Red King Crab Broiler Claw "Lollipops"

SeaBear's King Crab Broiler Claw "Lollipops" are a very indulgent treat from King crabs caught in the frigid cold waters of the Barents Sea, near the Arctic Circle at the top of the world! Each claw is a massive, making this a wildly impressive presentation to family & friends. Every claw is pre-scored, so the top comes off easily for simple serving and enjoying as the most impressive finger food. Serve chilled for an appetizer your guests will never forget.

Storing
You can store this fully cooked crab up to two months if kept frozen. Once thawed, you can store your crab three days in the refrigerator. Pack the lollipops in ice and cover with a damp towel for best results (replenish the ice as it melts).

Thawing
To thaw, wrap the frozen Red King Crab Lollipops in paper towels and place in the refrigerator to thaw overnight.

Preparing
You can simply thaw your crab and serve chilled. If you prefer to warm your crab, there are a variety of ways to reheat it. Steaming, boiling and baking (we recommend 275) are among the most common. Usually, under these methods, crab takes only 5 to 7 minutes to cook. Be careful not to overcook your crab, as it will reduce the texture and taste.

How To Serve Your Red King Crab
The traditional way to serve our fully cooked Red King Crab is with a simple accompaniment of drawn butter. Over the years, top chefs have derived their own creative touches to serving this special meal. Try a mix of garlic, lemon juice and olive oil… or experiment with your own creations!

Choosing The Right Beverage
Dry white wines with a hint of sweetness make terrific partners for Alaskan Red King Crab. Pair with a Pinot Gris, though a dry Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc will work quite well, too. Malty ales, well chilled, are also delicious. For non-alcoholic alternatives, try either a fresh-made lemonade or fresh-brewed iced tea with lemon; again, serve well chilled.

Cleaning Up
Finely crush two saltine crackers in your hands, and then rub your hands together, just as if you were washing them with a bar of soap. The cracker crumbs will absorb any lingering crab odor, and leave your hands feeling fresh, soft and smooth!
