It's been this price for the last month or so.

Note - they include the butter as part of the 2lbs so the cost of the crab legs are slightly more than $20 per lb.

The trick to the Sam's crab legs of any kind is to steam them. The instructions usually say serve cold or to boil but boiling makes the meat taste like mush.

Get a big soup pot, fill up about a quarter of the pot, get the water boiling then put the crab legs in and cover with lid. Turn down heat so it's barely simmering and leave it that way for a bit.

Every time I've steamed them this way it's removed most of the salt taste but not too much and the meat has come out easily and tasting perfect.

Again, you're not covering the crab legs, just the lower portion(the white cluster area) with water. The goal is to steam, not boil.

Many times trial and error before finding this is the best way. No more issues of meat sticking to the shell or coming out in pieces.

I weighed them last time and it was a bit over 2lbs without the butter.

Yeah I saw this in store before and was thinking pretty darn good price until I saw the butter. It's almost half the weight. It's still a good price compare to the local supermarket and costco.

We now give it a water bath for about 5 to 10 min first to trying to leech out the salt. It tastes really good after that!

haha, that is a bit of an exaggeration. There are only 3 small circular discs of butter but completely agree that it is a bit deceptive for them to have included the weight of the butter in the 2lbs.

I have bought this 5x already. You just need to look inside the bag and make sure you're buying large solid pieces Or else it's not worth it. Butter is also good. Never notice it being salty

I'd say these have been $40 for at least two months. My wife was crazy about these when they were full price but she's pregnant now and says the baby won't allow her to eat crab legs....
