Answers:
If the shells are redish, they are already cooked!. You just have to steam them to heat them up!. Don't thaw them - just put them in a soup kettle on a rack and steam them or if you dont' have a rack - put 2 inches of water in the bottom and throw them in!. When you serve them - serve 2-3 legs at a time keeping the rest warm in the pot (not on the heat though)!. Serve them with melted butter!.

I like to have asparagas with hollandaze sauce, some crescent rolls, and white wine or champagne with this meal!.

If you don't like asparagas, have another green vegetable - maybe green beans, or a salad would even work well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Most crab legs have already been cooked!. We just pop them into the microwave for a couple of minutes until they are heated!. Serve with melted butter!. My hubby does not want anything else to eat with them!. I like to have a salad of some sort!. Call your grocery store and ask if they are pre-cooked!.

Happy birthday to your hubby!. :o)Www@FoodAQ@Com

We just steam them until warmed through since they're already cooked!. Make some garlic lemon butter for dipping!. And this may sound strange, but steam some asparagus and make hollandaise, and a package of Stove Top!. And a little green salad!. I don't know why, but Stove Top tastes incredible with the lemon butter and hollandaise!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would steam them and serve with melted butter with a bit of garlic mixed in!. You can get crackers at any dollar store, I found a set that included a pair of crackers and 2 crab forks!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I steam or grill!.!.!.make with a salad and carb!. Whichever one you prefer!.!.or just ask HUBBY what he would like with his crab!.;) Great luck to you !! Enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com
