This crab is available in various forms, including Jonah Crab Leg Meat, Jonah Crab Cocktail Claws, delicious Jonah Crab Roll Kits, Jonah Crab "Triple Scores" Claws, and we even use this delectable meat in our in-house Jonah Crab Cakes. Call us biased, but us New Englanders LOVE Jonah Crab.
Domestic Alaskan Snow Crab
The two primary species of snow crab are the Opilio crab (Chionoecetes opilio) and the Tanner crab (Chionoecetes bairdi). These species are often collectively referred to as snow crab, and they are harvested for their sweet and delicate meat, primarily in the northern Pacific Ocean and the Bering Sea. Both Opilio and Tanner crabs are popular seafood choices known for their delicious flavor and versatility in various culinary dishes.
Why Do We Sell Bairdi Snow Crab Clusters?
Opilio crab is smaller and easier to find, while Bairdi crab is larger, sweeter, and has a firmer texture. When most people think of snow crab, they are actually referring to the easier-to-acquire Opilio crab. Bairdi crab is known for its bigger size, flavor, and texture, and is considered a more premium option compared to Opilio crab. To ensure we offer the best product to our customers, we conduct a blind taste test with our team. Out of 12 employees, 10 select Bairdi crab, confirming that the extra cost is justified. We are dedicated to offering the highest quality products to our customers, particularly to those who may not have access to these unique items in grocery stores and because of this, we chose Bardi Snow Crab Clusters for Maine Lobster Now.
Let customers speak for us
We have shopped with Maine Lobster Now for years. We usually buy multiple 2lb lobsters, but this year for a treat, we ordered two 6-8lb lobsters. We were so thrilled with the lobsters we received. And they were delicious. Shipping is amazingly fast and well communicated. We are customers for life.
Four lively lobsters, perfectly packed, and delivered to our door in Colorado, on time - to the minute!
Lobster Fra Diavolo is our family's favorite, so to celebrate our reunion, we ordered 4 live ones. They arrived on time, to the minute, beautifully packed and topped with seaweed. Each lobster was lively and ready for cooking. Dinner was a big success, every savory bite brought closed eyes and a smile! So delicious that we couldn't wait for leftovers! Best Fra Diavolo ever, in Colorado no less, thanks to Maine Lobster Now!!
I was pleased to receive the 2 pounds of lobster meat, delivered right on time! The pieces were extremely fresh and tasty. An expensive indulgence, but I made 8 people very happy with my Thanksgiving lobster side salad!
My only suggestion in the whole process is to figure out a more sustainable way to ship the meat without using styrofoam. thanks!
Every once in awhile a deal like this comes up. The broken tails are just as good as the perfect ones at a 40% discount or about. Never know what you'll get so maybe keep them just for you! I received 13 4oz tails and butter poached them in 2 batches. Very tender and moist...delicious.
Biggest tails I've ever seen. These were so good, I cooked them in the smoker. Was nice to have just one thing for dinner and have it be lobster, one is enough for a meal. Was a pretty good deal but probably won't get them any more. I usually get the 8-10oz and have something else with them. I saw these and thought it would be cool to try them, they were so good. I'd definitely recommend them. I'm just not into spending this much on dinner all the time.
We had these on Thanksgiving Day. We sent pictures to our friends telling them this is what turkey looks like in Florida. LOL. Quite an upgrade.
Lobsters arrived in perfect condition.. tasted like they were just pulled out of the ocean.
Always a pleasure to celebrate my husbands' birthday with live Maine lobsters. They are so good and such a special treat.
I gifted my sister 4 lobsters for her Birthday dinner!! Her response “ The lobsters were soooooo good! Thanks again 🥰🥳”. They were enjoyed by all!!!
The lobsters came fresh, came quickly and they were delicious!! Always going to order from here!!
I usually don’t eat bacon but wrapped around Scallops for
Maine, Really.
I’ll be using the Meat to prepare The Dublin Lawyer and it’s will be Spectacular, thanks to Maine Lobster Now…
This will be our Thanksgiving dinner next week. I Absolutely Love the Price and Service. I Know it’s The Best even before it’s served!’
These lobster tails were excellent! They arrived in perfect condition, beautifully packaged, and still frozen with no sign of defrosting. They actually arrived earlier than I would have expected having come cross country. We steamed them following your instructions and served them with a butter, garlic, lemon dip. They exceeded our expectations! We will definitely want to order from you again. I am anxious to try your lobster rolls, In live lobsters as well. As transplants from the NorthEast to the West Coast, we were delighted at this very next best option to sitting there in Maine at a lobster shack enjoying this delicacy to the fullest. We definitely plan to order again.
I have a photo, but it will not let me post it in this space. I will send it separately.
