What makes Blue Crab Meat so delicious?
Our crab boats every morning travel from crab pot to crab pot in search of the fattest blue crabs. This routine requires dedication and a knowledge of crab sizes and fresh catches. Naturally, the fatter the crab, the more claw, lump and jumbo meat. Bays, inlets and sounds offer the healthiest environment for blue crab growth with the perfect mix of fresh and saltwater. This gives the crab’s meat, after a steaming or boiling, a buttery salty-sweet taste. With a ravenous appetite for eelgrass, snails, oysters, insects and fish, and given time to grow, blue crabs will naturally fill with lump meat. Crabbers just need patience to allow the blue crab to grow past 5". The avearge caught crab measure 6".
