America's 49th state in Alaska isn't known for much. It's a blue-collar state recognized for its rich oil reserves, indigenous Eskimo tribes, proximity to Russia, and one other thing... it's monstrous crab surplus. The cold temperature and climate of the Northern Pacific Ocean have been producing these beauties for hundred of centuries and have been the target of fisheries for years now. The legs of an Alaskan king crab can grow up to nearly six feet long and weigh close to thirty pounds. Crabs this size have become one of the most sought after crustaceans in the world.
Native Alaskans have become experts in preparing king crab from soup-based bisques, rolls, cakes, clusters, and buckets. Personally, we believe there's no better way to enjoy some Alaskan king crab than boiled, seasoned, with a side of butter and opened with a mallet or nutcracker. While the process of accessing the meat might be tedious, it is definitely worth the sweet and savory reward.
