Preparation
How do you reheat steamed blue crabs?
Method 1: Reheating on the Stovetop (Steaming)
Prepare the Steamer: Fill a large pot with about an inch or two of water. Add a steaming rack or basket on top, making sure it sits above the water level.
Heat the Water: Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the Crabs: Place the steamed blue crabs in the steamer basket. You can layer them, but don't overcrowd them.
Steam the Crabs: Cover the pot and let the crabs steam for 5–10 minutes until heated through. Be careful not to over-steam, as this can dry out the meat.
Check for Heat: Carefully remove one crab and check that it's heated evenly before serving.
Serve: Remove the crabs from the steamer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
Method 2: Reheating in the Oven
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Crabs: Place the crabs in a baking dish and cover them with aluminum foil to retain moisture.
Add Moisture: To keep the crabs from drying out, add a splash of water or a bit of melted butter to the baking dish.
Reheat: Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until thoroughly heated. Check that the crabs are warmed evenly before serving.
Serve: Remove from the oven and enjoy.
Method 3: Reheating in the Microwave (Quick Option)
Prepare the Crabs: Place the crabs on a microwave-safe dish and cover with a damp paper towel to retain moisture.
Heat: Microwave on high for 1–2 minutes. Check the temperature after one minute and continue heating in 30-second intervals until hot.
Serve: Once heated through, serve immediately. Be cautious, as microwaving may slightly dry out the crabs.
For all methods, avoid overheating, as it can make the crab meat tough and dry. These techniques will keep the crabs moist and flavorful!

About this product
Do you have a large crab feast planned? Did you fill the fridge with all the traditional favorites? Creamy potato salad, spicy shrimp & pasta, and buttery biscuits probably lead the list. Setting the perfect table brings all the crab lovers to the yard. From the wafting bay spices to the fresh buttery crab aromas, everyone will cease their activities for the main event, a Maryland Blue Crab Feast!
Choosing a bay half bushel will load the table with approximately 4 dozen of these orange-colored crustaceans. Before you start tapping the claws with a mallet, divvy enough crabs per hungry fan. With all your sides, about 8-10 bay crabs should do the trick. See, bay half bushels get packed by volume with a delicious mix of small, 5”-5.5” and medium, 5.5”-6” crabs. Our bustling crab house crew prepares a half bushel by loading the crab cooler from a huge pot of freshly steamed and spiced blue crabs. The exact mix may vary, but if more smalls load the cooler, count on about 4 dozen, but if more mediums fill the pot, you may have about 3.5 dozen. This sized half bushel contains our highest quantity and holds a younger crab, about a year into a crab’s 3-year lifespan.
In the crab cooler room, the crew always moves quickly while checking the health of the bay crabs since they quickly scramble out of the bushel boxes. Lively and snapping angrily, bay crabs show their youth and readiness for a fight. If not careful, even these little guys can pierce their claws through the crew’s rubber gloves. A crab cut definitely “smarts” in this chilly room. Rest assured, a Maryland Style Steaming with exactly graded crabs to the 5”-6” scale, and then spicing to your order’s specifications, delivers a deliciously cooked blue crab with buttery, salty-sweet meat every time!
