I have to agree about the recipe being wrong. Steam the crabs for 12-14 minutes max. Be sure to add Old Bay seasoning to the water. Once steamed, let the crabs cool for about 15 minutes and begin the picking process. We freeze any crab meat we will not be using for our recipe.

This is exactly how we steam crabs. We live on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and eat crabs on a regular basis. Steaming crabs is extremely easy and fun. If you haven't tried it yet you definitely should. Great times with groups of friends.

You will end up with mushy crabmeat if you boil crabs for 40 minutes. They should be steamed for 9-12 minutes. They should also be seasoned.
