Colossal Male Hard Crabs

How to reheat steamed crabs— Put the steamed crab in a pot with about 2 inches of water. For added flavor, add about a cup of vinegar or beer. Reheat them for no more than 8 minutes, over the boiling water. Also, use a rack at the bottom of the pot to lay the crabs on, to help them reheat well. You can also reheat previously steamed blue crab in the microwave. Place a damp paper towel over them to keep them moist and cook on high for 1 to 2 minutes or warm them in the oven for approximately 10 minutes at 375 degrees. ENJOY!

How many crabs should I order for each person?
If steamed crabs will be served along with other food, about two or three crabs per person. If you will be eating crabs solely as your main course, then you can plan for approximately four to six crabs per person. Generally, 2 dozen crabs can feed about six people. * Please keep in mind that these numbers are "approximate" and are intended to help you determine a ballpark number of crabs to order.

My experience with this company is phenomenal. I've ordered from them on three different occasions and each time the service & the products was exceptional. My colossal crabs for the 4th of July were so sweet meaty & the largest crabs I've ever seen. I love the way my order was prepared packaged & shipped. "Take a bow crab dynasty" JOB WELL DONE!

We ordered steamed male colossals, and they were perfect. These were all true to size, and tasted delicious. We usually go to the dc wharf, but with local one day shipping, these were just as fresh. We'll definitely order again.
