Buy 5 lbs of Jonah Crab Claws, Get 2 lbs of Shrimp Free

Did you know the Gulf of Maine is home to the Jonah crab?

For years, lobstermen despised them. Jonahs would work their way into the traps and steal the bait, then get hauled up, unhooked, and pitched back into the Atlantic under a shower of curses.

Eventually somebody had the sense to take one home and throw it in the pot instead.

Turns out Jonah crab is delicious. A small cottage industry grew up around steaming, picking, and selling the meat — and the biggest crabs had claws juicy enough to give Florida's famous Stone Crab claws a run for their money. At about half the price.

Today Jonah crab has earned its place on the menu. They're landed fresh year-round, hauled inshore and offshore by the same lobster boats you'd expect — this isn't a separate fleet, it's a side hustle for guys who were already out there. The meat is flaky, sweet, and rich, often compared to its Pacific cousin, Dungeness crab.

We hand-select the larger crabs for our "cocktail claws" — the full arm and claw, about 6 to 8 pieces per pound. They're steamed and flash-frozen right after harvest to lock in that sweet ocean flavor, then shipped ready to thaw and eat.

Serve them with cocktail sauce, aioli, hot sauce, or drawn butter, the way you'd serve lobster. Crack one open and you'll see why we're hooked.

And right now, buy 5 lbs, get 2 lbs of shrimp on us. No catch — just more seafood in the cooler.
