Soft-shells
Soft-shells are blue crabs that have shed their shell. Since they are soft, you eat the whole crab, shell and all. Live ones are available in season May through September. We also carry them frozen year round.
Wild Snow Crab
Delicate sweet flavor, delicious on it’s own or dipped in melted butter. Sold frozen or hot and ready to eat.
Wild King Crab
Richer, more buttery flavor. Also sold frozen or hot and ready to eat.
Wild Dungeness Crab
A west coast crab sold in clusters or as a whole crab. It has a meatier, less sweet taste. Can be purchased frozen or hot and ready to eat.
Crab Meat
If picking crabs isn’t your thing or you need crabmeat for a recipe, crabmeat is also available already picked by the pound. We have two different grades- Jumbo Lump which is large pieces of meat and a minimal amount of shell or Backfin which is smaller pieces of meat with a little more shell through out.
