FAQs

FAQs

What is the flavor profile for Alaskan king crab legs?
+
-

Alaskan king crab boasts a rich, natural sweetness and firm yet tender texture.

How should I cook my Alaskan king crab legs?
+
-

After thawing your crab legs in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours, you can steam, grill, bake, or boil. Learn more here. We suggest rinsing your crab legs in freshwater before and after thawing them. You can also heat your king crab legs directly from frozen; simply add additional cook time to whichever method you choose.

How long can I keep my Alaskan king crab legs in the freezer?
+
-

All of our products will stay good in the freezer for several months. However, for the best taste and texture, we recommend enjoying them within 2-3 months.

What can I expect in my order?
+
-

All products are hand-weighed using a certified scale. We do our best to give you as many full legs as possible; however, orders may also include claws, knuckles, and pieces. Your order will be packed with dry ice to keep every item frozen until it gets to your doorstep. 

What’s the difference between Red King Crab and Golden King Crab?
+
-

Both red king crab and golden king crab have a sweet, rich, and luxurious flavor profile. Golden king crab is a slightly smaller species caught at deeper depths. Their legs tend to be a bit pricklier than their red king crab counterparts, so we recommend using a quality set of shears. 

How much meat should I expect to be in each Extra Large King Crab Leg?
+
-

The exact amount of meat in each crab leg will vary slightly. We recommend ordering 1-2 lbs per person, depending on appetites and what else is included in your seafood feast!

Is king crab meat healthy?
+
-

Both red and golden king crab boast 16g of protein, ~350mg of omega 3s, and 9.8 mcg of vitamin B-12 per 3oz serving.
