From the brand

From humble beginnings, what started out as a passion for the water and what it could provide, our family business has slowly grown over the past 3 decades. Maryland is where it all started and now we are fortunate to be able to ship our blue crabs and other seafood products across the US. We are proud to provide work to our family and job opportunities for our fellow community members. From our boats to your table since 1990! Happy Picking

How do we prepare our blue crabs for shipment?

During the busy summer months, our crabbers bring in their catch 5-6x a week. Once we receive the crabs, we sort and steam them off with our signature crab seasoning the same day. After a 24 hour cool down period in our 40-foot refrigeration units, we can then package and ship them out to our customers.

Where do we source our blue crabs from?

We source our blue crabs from several different areas throughout the US. Due to the seasonality of the “Maryland” blue crab, we have crabbers in Louisiana, Alabama, North Carolina and Maryland.

Is there a difference between blue crabs from different regions?

Yes.

Blue crabs caught along the Atlantic carry less meat and fat. They also tend to have a lighter blue color with slightly red tipped claws.

Blue Crabs caught in the gulf waters carry the most meat and fat. They are typically a bit darker in color and have blue tipped claws.

In our experience, our customers prefer the blue crabs caught in the gulf due to the higher meat and fat content that creates a savory butter flavor.

Do we carry other seafood products?

Absolutely!

We offer handmade Maryland style crab cakes, softshell blue crabs, lump and jumbo lump blue crab meat, Alaskan king crab, Canadian snow crab, Pacific dungeness crab, Louisiana crawfish, Delaware bay oysters, Virginia little neck clams, jumbo gulf shrimp, Nantucket bay scallops, Maine lobster tails, Caribbean lobster tails, assorted fish, soups, salads and much more!
