Grilled Soft-Shell Crab With Barbecue Butter

1. 1

   Heat your grill until moderately hot OR turn your broiler to high. Position the grill grate or oven rack at least 4 inches from the heat source.

2. 2

   In a small saucepan or a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. Warm over medium-low heat, or microwave in 15-second bursts, until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm and fragrant. Stir to make sure everything is combined.

3. 3

   Brush the crabs on both sides with a thin layer of barbecue butter. Grill or broil for 3-4 minutes per side, brushing them occasionally with the barbecue butter. When the crabs are plump, firm, and pink, they're done. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over the top.
