Stone crab claws are a Florida favorite, known for their hefty shells packed with tender, flavorful meat. This recipe pairs the claws with a tangy mayo-based dipping sauce made with horseradish, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, and lemon juice. Simply mix the ingredients, chill them, and serve alongside the claws on a platter of ice.

The claws are pre-cooked and ready to eat, making preparation a breeze. To access the meat, lightly crack the shells using a claw cracker, hammer, or the back of a butter knife. Then, dip into the sauce and savor each bite.
