Boiling: Bring a large pot of heavily salted water (or seafood seasoning bath) to a rolling boil. Carefully submerge live Jonah crabs. Cover and cook for 12–15 minutes until shells turn bright orange-red.
Steaming: Place crabs in a steamer basket over boiling water/beer with classic seasoning. Steam covered for 15–18 minutes.
Serving: Serve warm with drawn butter, fresh lemon wedges, and seafood crackers, or pick the meat to craft rich crab cakes and chilled seafood cocktails.
Our live crustaceans (lobster and crabs) ship Priority Overnight to ensure maximum freshness and vitality upon delivery. Crustaceans are packed in insulated containers with gel ice packs and covered with damp salt paper to keep them cold and hydrated.
For lobster orders of 12 pieces or more, we ship them in dedicated heavy-duty styrofoam boxes featuring individual cardboard divider cells and a damp salt paper topper for safe transport.
Storage & Care: Upon arrival, transfer your live lobsters and/or crabs immediately to your refrigerator. Keep the original damp salt paper laid over top of them to retain moisture. Do not submerge them in fresh water or store them in airtight containers.
For the absolute best quality and safety, live seafood must be cooked on the same day you receive it.
