Description

Elevate your kitchen creations with Hand-Picked Pasteurized Blue Crab Meat. Sourced from high-quality blue crabs and meticulously hand-picked, our canned crab meat offers the sweet, delicate flavor and premium texture you demand, with the  convenience and shelf life you need. This crab meat is ready to eat or use for any culinary purposes.

Each can is sealed and pasteurized under strict quality controls, extending its refrigerated shelf life to several months (when unopened), a significant advantage over fresh crab meat which must be consumed within just a few days. This process ensures you always have high-quality crab meat on hand, at a much more affordable price point than premium fresh product, without compromising on taste.

Claw Meat Vs. Reg Lump Vs. Jumbo Lump

We offer three types of pasteurized crab meat each hand-picked for quality and perfectly suited for different culinary uses:

1. Claw Meat

  • Description & Flavor: This meat has a darker color, a more shredded texture, and a richer, more robust crab flavor than the other types.
  • Culinary Use: It’s ideal for dishes where the flavor is key and the meat will be mixed in, such as creamy soups (like She-Crab or Chowder), hot dips, casseroles, or as a budget-friendly option for deeply flavored crab cakes.
  • Price Point: Claw meat is our cheapest option because it is the most plentiful and easiest to pick from the crab.

2. Regular Lump Meat

  • Description & Flavor: This type is made up of large, firm flakes from the body of the crab (Backfin meat) mixed with smaller, broken pieces of Jumbo Lump. It offers a sweet flavor and a good, substantial texture.
  • Culinary Use: It’s excellent for all-purpose use, including classic crab cakes (it holds its shape well), stuffing for fish or vegetables, or in pasta sauces and salads where you want visible chunks of quality meat.
  • Price Point: This is our mid-range option, offering a great balance of size, texture, and value.

3. Jumbo Lump Meat

  • Description & Flavor: These are the two largest, whitest, and most magnificent unbroken muscle pieces from the crab's swimming legs. They have the most delicate, buttery flavor and the most impressive presentation.
  • Culinary Use: Perfect for high-end applications where the size and look of the crab is paramount. Use it in cold crab cocktails, elegant crab imperials, or the best Maryland-style crab cakes made with minimal filler.
  • Price Point: Jumbo Lump Meat is the most expensive grade, reflecting the rarity of these two pieces and the meticulous care required to hand-pick them perfectly intact.
