Jumbo Russian
Red King Crab

Back in the 60's, Russian scientists introduced red king crab into the Barents Sea located above Russia's northern-most coastline. Since then, a booming king crab fishery has evolved creating some of the largest king crab in the world.

These red king crab legs are mighty jumbo indeed and packed full of sweet succulent king crab meat. They are flash frozen, pre-cooked, and ready to reheat and serve with hot melted butter and lemon wedges. Now who could pass that up?

We also offer split Russian red king crab legs that are split lengthwise down each leg to offer a convenient way of getting to that sweet meat we all love.

Serving Sizes

2 pounds of king crab will serve 2 to 3 people easily if you're serving with additional entrees. If you're having a crab feast or are serving a group of crab lovers, 5 pounds would be good for 3 people. Usually around 1 1/2 per person is a good starting point.

Storing and Thawing

King crab arrives in the form of frozen legs and claws. Frozen king crab can be kept in a freezer for several months due to it's protective glaze. To thaw king crab, place it in the refrigerator a day prior to cooking it. Left-over king crab should be kept under refrigeration and used within a couple of days.

Size and Packaging

Fisherman's Express has always opted to offer jumbo king crab legs and claws for their quality and meat content. Legs and claws average between 1/2 pound to 2/3 pound each. Legs are packaged in large clear plastic bags making it helpful to store in your freezer. We do not ship broken pieces or tips and knuckles parts, just whole legs and claws.

Our crab legs are separated for your convenience.
