Whole Cornish Male Crabs
Whole Cornish male crabs (referred to as cock crabs by the local fisherman and shellfish merchants) are generally larger than the female crabs (nicknamed hens). We offer 1000 and 1400 gram crabs as the total meat yields will be about 20-25% of the crab’s mass. So it doesn’t make sense you picking smaller cock crabs as there won’t be much meat to enjoy from them.
If you are ordering live crabs, please cook on the day of delivery and eat within three days.
If you are ordering cooked crabs these should be consumed within two days and stored at 0-5 °C.
If you choose to freeze please follow your freezer manufacturers instructions.
Male crabs are freshly cooked to order within our factory. Only strong crabs will be despatched live; upon receipt they should be cooked immediately. Weather, tides, seasonality and catch numbers can affect availability during December to May. Please note all items are sold as approximate and pre-cooked weight, some cook loss will occur. Three sizes are available.
