I personally can not eat spicy food, so I live vicariously through y'all!! I am a chef, though, and a firefighter, too! Just the right mixture for this type of cooking, no?! I am just finishing up a batch of pure Habernero Hot Sauce from my garden pickings! Wish I could try it..... Anyway, letting them sit should draw in some of the liquid as they cool a few degrees. Or, as in basting a turkey, you could inject a little mixture into the legs at some point. You can do this through the thin membrane on the inside of the joint. This will allow the meat of the leg to sort of "Baste" in the 'heat' while cooking.Then when it cools a little, it will reabsorb some of that liquid into the meat itself. I know, I know, alot of work for a crab leg, but just imagine the outcome...********! Happy Cooking! ~Frank~ Hi all! I personally can not eat spicy food, so I live vicariously through y’all!!

It is an excellent way to enjoy hot and spicy crab meat. Find a sechwan sauce that is to your liking. Then pull the raw crab meat out of the shells, get together any of your favorite chinese vegetables and prepare them for stir frying. Get your wok hot and add a little peanut oil, stir fry your assorted vegetables and remove. Add a little sesame oil and stir fry some chinese red peppers, add crab meat, don't overcook!!!! Remove from wok, then add back in your veggies and sechwan sauce, when bubbly, add crab and peppers. Toss this a couple of times and eat with some sticky rice. For the vegetables, I would suggest waterchesnuts for the crunch, sugar snap peas, carrot, mushroom and Bok Choy. If the Sechwan sauce isn't hot enough for you, add a little of Blair's sweet death sauce to it. I am a fond of sechwan crab. It is an excellent way to enjoy hot and spicy crab meat.

Nice legs...! Hey don't forget y'all, when these go through customs, (from Canada, eh!) I think the customs agents get a little antsy with little vials of black oil and white powder....!! Still pity the poor bugger that opens them up to test the contents..... LOL! Enjoy! Muso Nice review! Nice legs…! Hey don’t forget y’all, when these go through customs, (from Canada, eh!)
