• Our shipping charge is calculated to cover the cost of express next-day delivery on a nationwide scale. The reason shipping varies based on order weight is because the lower the weight of the delivery, the higher the cost of express shipping.
• Express shipping ensures that our customers’ seafood is precisely temperature-controlled in transit to maintain maximum freshness upon arrival.

How long will Culinary Reserve Canned Crab Meat last in the fridge?

Our crab meat has a refrigerated shelf life of 12 months. Each can also has a Sell By date on the bottom of it, which can also be used as a "Use By/Eat By" date.

Can I freeze Culinary Reserve Crab Meat cans?

We do not recommend freezing the cans of crab meat, if you can avoid it. Once frozen and then thawed, the crab meat will taste a bit different than ideal (slightly inferior flavor and texture). However, if you NEED to freeze the crab meat, you certainly can, as long as you are aware of the impact on quality.

• TH Teresa H. Verified Buyer I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoWonderful!

  So yes, crab is super expensive right now, but if I’m going to buy it, I’m buying it from NCS. It arrived frozen, so I thawed it in the fridge and made 4 nice sized crab cakes. It’s a treat, but one we’ve earned for sure! Attached is a picture of my crab cakes going into the oven.

  Hi Teresa! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback on our Jumbo Lump crab meat. Those crab cakes look absolutely delicious!

  While crab meat prices are much higher than “normal” due to a global shortage, we agree that it is a wonderful, well-earned treat!

  Cheers,The Sea Fresh Team
