Additional Details

Additional Details

  • Wild-caught by trusted experts, Alaskan King Crab Co. brings the sea right to your doorstep. Our king crab is pre-cooked to preserve that freshly caught flavor. Learn more here.

  • A whole red king crab is the perfect way to impress your guests. Plus, red king crab meat is packed with high quality protein, loaded with vitamin B-12, and is high in omega 3s.

  • Each order is packed with dry ice so that it stays completely frozen while en route to your doorstep.

How To Prepare

  • Since our king crab comes pre-cooked, it's as simple as thaw, heat, and eat. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight (8-12 hours). Then, simply steam, grill, bake, or boil. For a whole king crab, the heat time will be slightly longer than heating up crab legs alone.

  • Enhance your meal by dipping your crab legs in melted butter with our AKC "Just Add Butter" Seafood Seasoning and be sure to include some of our favorite side dishes.
