Steps:
- Put the crab legs in the bottom of a large stockpot, then cover with 4 quarts of water and stir in the seafood seasoning (see Cook's Note). Halve the lemons and squeeze the juice into the pot, then add the rinds. Cover and bring to a boil, then cook over medium-high heat until the crab legs are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove the crab legs to a large serving bowl or platter.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until the butter foams and simmers, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let stand 5 minutes. Using a spoon, remove any milk solids from the surface of the butter, then slowly pour the melted butter into a small serving bowl, leaving any watery, white whey behind in the saucepan. Serve alongside the crab legs.

BAKED CRAB CAKES WITH LEMON MUSTARD SAUCE
These are great using finely crushed Ritz Crackers in place of the bread crumbs. When zesting the lemon, start with 1/2 and if you like it more lemony use the zest of the other half of the lemon. Same when making the sauce. Taste using the juice of 1/2 lemon and see how you like it. If you want more lemon, then add the rest of the juice. It is really about personal preference with this recipe. If you use canned crab, make sure you squeeze it to get all the juice out before mixing with the other ingredients. Lump crab is great for making these.

- Garlic Butter Sauce. As I mentioned, I’ve found a handful of great crab leg dipping sauces over the years. They enhance the natural flavor of the crab meat instead of overpowering it.
- Tartar Sauce. I never enjoyed dipping my crab legs in tartar sauce. I’ve always appreciated the bright, tangy flavor of the condiment. I just didn’t think it paired well with crab meat.
- Homemade Cocktail Sauce. I’m a serious cocktail sauce fan. It sounds crazy, but I could put this stuff on practically anything. (I’m not joking, either.
- Green Cocktail Sauce. Are you looking for something a bit spicier? Try this recipe for green cocktail sauce instead. The cilantro and tomatillos give it a brilliant green color and fresh taste.
- Wasabi Cocktail Sauce. I like this wasabi cocktail sauce best on shrimp. However, my friends swear it’s a must-have sauce for crab legs. It’s quick and easy to make.
