Experience the rich, sweet flavor of wild North Atlantic Jonah Crab. Sourced directly from local fishermen and landed at our waterfront facility in Gloucester, Massachusetts, Intershell Seafood delivers restaurant quality crabs straight to your door.

Often compared to Pacific Dungeness crab for its sweet taste and flaky texture, Jonah crab features heavy, meat-packed claws and a dense, flavorful body. Caught in the deep, cold ocean waters off the New England coast, these crabs offer an exceptional seafood feast for crab boils, family dinners, and gourmet seafood menus.

Why Choose Jonah Crab?

  • Wild & Sustainable: Harvested responsibly following strict Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission guidelines to ensure long-term fishery health.
  • Peak Freshness: Live crabs are held in temperature-controlled saltwater tanks before custom packing to guarantee maximum survival and quality upon arrival.
  • Meat Yield: Renowned for exceptionally large, dense claws packed with succulent leg and claw meat.
  • Wild or Farmed: Wild
  • Availability: Year Round
  • Package Size: 2 pieces (2 lb)
  • Form: Live
  • Crab Size: 1 lb approximately
  • Harvest Area: Gulf of Maine waters
  • Scientific Name: Cancer borealis

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.

Customers praised the crabs as "delicious" with great meat quality, noting they were "heavier than expected." Packaging was "well packed" and secure. However, some shoppers experienced delivery issues with crabs arriving dead, and found the return policy "insanely strict" requiring 24-hour contact and specific documentation.

  • They arrived live and were heavier than I expected. They were very good.
  • Packed really well, everything fresh and delicious.
  • The cooler box was well packed...delicious meat!

They arrived live and were heavier than I expected.
I was planning to eat 4 and only was able to eat 2. They were very good.

Purchased 2 orders - 4 crabs. Arrived on Friday. One was not moving on arrival and did not revive. Other 3 were a bit stunned but became more active. We cooked and ate the 3 alive crabs - they were a lot of work but delicious. I contacted Intershell on Monday and they refused to refund the one crab. Their return policy was insanely strict. I did not contact them within 24 hrs and did not take the right photo or video of the dead crab.

the cooler box was well packed, although 3 of the crabs were not alive upon received, they were chill in good condition. The shell is a little hard, but it is worth the work...delicious meat!
