The Difference

Why DMV chefs keep us on speed dial

Big broadline distributors sell you a truck. We sell you crab, and a partner who answers the phone.

We won't short you, and we won't be late

Consistent grades and on-time delivery, order after order. Reliability is the whole reason kitchens switch to us, and the reason they stay.

Blue crab, all year round

We bring in prime Gulf blue crabs straight from Louisiana, so you get steady size and supply right through the local off-season. Same species, same sweet meat, dependable every week.

Crab specialists, not a catalog

This is all we do. We know the grades cold and sort to your spec, so what lands on your dock is exactly what your dish needs.

The owner answers the phone

No call center, no runaround. Whether it's a last-minute weekend rush or a special order, you reach Patrick, the owner, and he makes it right.

Our Story

A family in the crab business since 2005

For two decades, our family has made one thing our business: getting the finest blue crab to the kitchens that depend on it. We know crab cold: how to grade it, how to handle it, and how to get it to your door right. And we treat every order like our reputation rides on it, because it does.

We work hand-in-hand with trusted Gulf crabbers and handle every bushel ourselves, so the quality that leaves under our name is quality we'd put on our own table, order after order, season after season.

— Patrick Morrogh, owner
