Sustainably Sourced King Crab

King crab is considered sustainable due to several factors:

1. Regulated Harvesting: Quotas based on scientific data ensure that harvest levels don’t deplete the species.

2. Limited Fishing Seasons: Controlled seasons prevent overfishing and allow crab populations to recover.

3. Bycatch Reduction: Selective gear like crab pots minimize harm to non-target species.

4. Protected Areas: Some regions are off-limits to fishing to preserve habitats and marine health.

These practices maintain healthy crab populations and protect the marine environment.

As part of our commitment to sustainable seafood, Maine Lobster Now responsibly sources Red King Crab from the Icy cold waters of the Northern Pacific Ocean as well as the Bering Sea.

Know the Serving Size of Colossal Alaskan King Crab Legs
Ordering Alaskan king crab legs can be confusing since the weight includes both the hard exoskeleton and the meat inside. We’ll help you sort out serving sizes. On average, a Colossal King Crab Leg is about .75 lbs., or 12 oz. Crab legs yield about 50% meat, so 1 leg contains about 6 oz. of meat. The standard portion size is 5 oz.
So that means 1 Colossal Alaskan King Crab Leg will be enough to feed 1 person when served with classic New England appetizers or side dishes to complement the meal. We recommend red potatoes, great for baking, frying, or mashing, or Applewood-Smoked Bacon-Wrapped Scallops. Round out your Maine crab dinner with a sweet treat, like Labadie's Bakery, chocolate and vanilla Whoopie Pie.

Nutritional Benefits of Alaskan King Crab Meat

Crabmeat is a high-protein meat source that comes packed with vitamins and minerals. Like other shellfish and seafood we sell, crab could be added to the growing list of “superfoods” health experts recommend.

Crabmeat offers a whopping 16 grams of protein per 3 oz. serving. Crabmeat also contains vitamins B12 and C, and the antioxidants zinc and selenium. Zinc helps support bone mass and immune function, while selenium aids in preventing cellular damage. And there’s more. Crabmeat is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help lower inflammation and can reduce the risk of heart disease.
