Preheat the grill to medium-high.

In a small bowl, combine butter, salt, pepper, garlic, lemon juice and paprika.

Brush both sides of crabs with butter mixture. Place crabs, topsides up, about 4 inches from coals. Close grill and cook until shells are bright red about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn crabs over and repeat.
