The king crab legs they sell at BJs says that it is Alaska king crabs. Some of the king crab legs thay sell at Sam's Club does say southern crab legs. But the ones behind the glass doesn't identify itself as southern or Alaskan.

The southern ones have a drawl. That's how you tell.

There is a restaurant outside of Williamsburg VA that has a buffet with all you can eat AKC legs. Is there a place even as far away as Ocala (not going to Tampa or Orlando) that has an all you can eat buffet of these things. I feel I should say in my wifes defense that she is not 300lbs, just loves this when we can find it. Thank you, Bud

Bud, you are about as far from Alaska as you can get in these United States. Good luck.

I can't believe Ichiban's in Leesburg does King Crab Legs. My wife and I tried there once and saw nothing like that. The only seafood I remember was really, really mediocre shrimp.

I did an online search for King Crab in Orlando and found a couple. The Juicy Crab (multiple locations) does a 1-lb. cluster (2 or 3 legs) for $75. King Crab does 1-lb. cluster for unspecified "market price" or 1/2 pound each of King Crab legs, clams and sausage for $43. J Crab House does 1-lb. cluster for $60. 192 Crab and Lobster does 1-lb. cluster for unspecified "market price". AllMenus.com claims that EZ Crab Shack does 1 lb. of King Crab plus 18 jumbo shrimp for $37, but that seems kind of hard to believe (I can't find a page with a menu directly for EZ Crab Shack).
