    The Dungeness crab were excellent. We ordered five and they arrived on time and still frozen. It was a wonderful New Year treat!

    These are amazing. We steam the frozen crabs with Old Bay for 25 minutes and they turn out perfect. Worth every penny.

    The Dungeness crab was delicious. I will order it again.

    We decided to splurge for our 2020 pandemic Holidays at home, and we’re really glad we did! We ordered the five pack, intending to eat them over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. We tried and failed to eat a whole one each on Thanksgiving, extending our feast into a second day! We will order again for special occasions. The only suggestion I have – a printed guide for cleaning them would be awesome to include with the cooking instructions, for people who have not done it before. It’s really easy, but I didn’t know where to start without looking it up first.

    We ordered 5 Dungeness crabs which arrived exactly on schedule and totally frozen with lots of dry ice remaining, and we live in Minnesota. We have thawed and boiled for 4 minutes in plain water (no salt added), cooled them some, removed the main shell, rinsed out the “guts”, and ate them slowly, piece by piece. These were wonderful, almost as good as starting with live crabs.

    waaaay too salty even after soaking. Couldn’t even finish the crab. The salmon was good though.

    Both the Dungeness crab and the smoked salmon were delicious! The crab tasted fresh, and I particularly liked the smoking of the salmon. Perfect! Glad we still have some in the freezer for another few meals. Thank you for quality products.

    The Dungies were delicious. Tasted like we pulled them right out of Puget Sound today!
