Premium Maryland Soft Shell Crabs
There is nothing quite like a crispy, golden-brown soft shell crab sandwich. We’ve made it possible to enjoy this Chesapeake Bay tradition anywhere in the country. Our Maryland soft shell blue crabs are harvested by local watermen, hand-selected for size, and immediately cleaned and flash-frozen. Try with our other seafood options!
Why Buy Our Frozen Soft Shells?
Preserved Peak Quality: Maryland Soft shell crabs are incredibly delicate and harvested right when they shed their shell. By flash-freezing them immediately after cleaning, we lock in the sweet, buttery flavor of the crab at its absolute best.
Cleaned & Ready to Cook: No mess, no fuss. We handle the cleaning process for you, so your crabs arrive ready for the flour, the fryer, or the grill.
Safe Shipping: Shipping fresh soft shells is risky; our frozen method ensures your crabs arrive intact and beautiful, never crushed or compromised.
Cooking the Perfect Soft Shell:
For an authentic Maryland experience, we recommend a light dusting of flour and Old Bay, followed by a quick pan-fry in butter or oil. Serve on a piece of white bread, fresh bun or just eat the crab by itself! Watch Andrew Zimern cook soft shell crabs
Thawing:
For best results, thaw your soft shells in the refrigerator overnight on a paper towel-lined plate before cooking.
