These premium blue crabs are steamed whole in their shells for a striking presentation with unrivaled freshness. They are delicately spiced with a signature blend of seafood spices that will delight your guests. Serve them as a traditional crack-and-eat presentation, or process them in-house to create specialty dishes like Maryland crab cakes or cheesy crab dip. Let their natural, delicate flavor shine and keep your guests coming back for more. These male Jimmies have sweet, flaky meat that is incredibly tender and melts in your mouth. The medium crabs between 5 1/2" and 6" are petite yet packed with flavor, and one dozen is the perfect quantity to feed one to two people. A general rule of thumb is to have 8 to 12 crabs per person if you are only serving crabs, or 6 crabs per person if you plan to serve other food. To prepare these crabs, fill the base of a large pot with equal parts water, vinegar, and beer, if desired. Place a rack just above water level for the crabs to steam on, and layer the crabs on the rack. Steam the par-cooked crabs for 6-8 minutes, taking care not to dry the meat for optimal succulent texture. There is no recognizable loss of quality from re-steaming. Unlike crabs caught in areas with milder climates, these blue crabs acclimate their habitats to four distinct seasons throughout the year. This forces these crabs to hibernate and build up fat stores, commonly called "mustard," that are noticeably darker than other blue crab varieties and result in a heartier texture with a sweet, buttery taste. This distinctive flavor, combined with your establishment's signature seasoning blends, makes these crabs a uniquely customized, cherished option on your menu.
