Sustainably Sourced King Crab
King crab is considered sustainable due to several factors:
1. Regulated Harvesting: Quotas based on scientific data ensure that harvest levels don’t deplete the species.
2. Limited Fishing Seasons: Controlled seasons prevent overfishing and allow crab populations to recover.
3. Bycatch Reduction: Selective gear like crab pots minimize harm to non-target species.
4. Protected Areas: Some regions are off-limits to fishing to preserve habitats and marine health.
These practices maintain healthy crab populations and protect the marine environment.

Customer Reviews
I have a friend, you know the one, he already has two of everything and gift giving get's more and more difficult every year. One evening he was telling a story about an all you could eat seafood restaurant probably from sometime in the 1980's and he spoke very animatedly about the Alaskan King Crab and how delicious it was. Later that night I ended up here and purchased the Colossal Red King Crab Legs as his Christmas gift.
On Christmas Eve the legs came out of the freezer for the recommended 8 hours in the fridge for thawing. The next morning I rinsed them lightly under cold water and returned them to the fridge. Later on Christmas Day I made seafood boil with Lobsters, Prawns, scallops, red potatoes, yellow onions, corn on the cob and kielbasa. All simmered in a wonderful broth of coriander seed, celery seed, dill, ginger, ground mustard, cayenne pepper, paprika and a pinch of all spice and the crab was added at the end for reheating.
Dinner was delicious, succulent lobster, tender prawns and scallops, with perfectly cooked potatoes and corn all bathed in the most wonderfully fragrant broth. The crab unfortunately was nearly inedible. The salt content was so far off, the crab had no flavor other than that of salt. At the end of dinner all that remained was the crab legs.
In hopes of possibly saving so much meat I de-shelled it all, the salt problem persisted throughout the entire four pounds of legs. In a final attempt to save the meat I even tried soaking it in milk as you would with salted cod. No luck.
So I’m sorry to say that I would have a difficult time recommending this product to anyone.
I ordered 4 lbs of king crab legs for our anniversary and we had a beautiful dinner with the kids. Everyone LOVED the crab legs. Best ever. Thank you!
The delivery was fast. Crab Legs were packed efficiently to keep them, frozen and tasted really good when they were cooked really impressed thumbs up.
I am not sure where to begin.... but I could have gotten better crab legs at a local retail store for at least 3/4 of the price and if the quality was as poor I could have taken them back. Meat was difficult to remove and overwhelming fish flavor.
These were truly COLOSSAL in both size and taste. Boiled perfectly and were delicious drenched in melted butter.
