Snow Crab (Canadian)

Packaging:

Our Canadian snow crab clusters average 1/3 to 1/2 pound each. Clusters are comprised of three legs & 1 claw each*. The clusters are pre-cooked, flash-frozen and packaged in clear plastic bags for easy freezer storage.

*Note: Snow crab can be prone to breakage during shipping. As a policy - we do not pack broken pieces, and we do pack it carefully, but please be aware that we are not responsible for any breakage that occurs during shipping.

Storing & Thawing:

Frozen snow crab can be kept in a freezer for several months due to it's protective water glaze. To thaw snow crab, place it in the refrigerator a day prior to cooking it. Left-over snow crab should be kept under refrigeration and consumed within a couple of days.

Serving Suggestions:

Three pounds of snow crab will serve 2 to 3 people easily if you're serving with additional entrees. If you're having a crab feast or are serving a group of crab lovers, 1 & 1/2 pounds per person would be a good start.
