I ordered these for our

"I ordered these for our Valentine’s Day dinner, but my husband couldn’t wait and cooked them early. From the moment we bit into the scrumptious leg meat, we were in heaven. The crab was so sweet and tender—it truly melts in your mouth. We’ll definitely be ordering more soon!"

Stacia P. (5/5)

Red Crab

"My friend enjoy the Red Crab very much, but I did not. The flavor was not good for me and the texture was a wrong. May have been my preparation. I did them as usual but they turned out dry. I prefer the Snow Crab. My next order in the next season may have some of both since other enjoyed the Red Crab. I must say I have tried other vendors and your process and quality for exceeds other vendors. Overnight delivery is premium. I will be back next year. ."
