All Spider Crab | Minimum £35* | View all boxes |
Spider crabs are large, spiky crustaceans that are common around Cornwall’s coast. They grow up to 80cm in claw span. The claws are full of delicious moist, white meat that is a prized delicacy in Spain and France, yet not as popular in the UK despite being delicious. Male spider crabs are very much like the male brown crab in that they have longer legs and bigger claws than the female spider crab.
Live male spider crabs are usually in stock. We don’t offer female spider crabs as the meat yield is very poor. We don’t buy or process them as we don’t want to disappoint customers.
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.
Spider crabs are adversely affected by freezing and so we wouldn’t encourage this as it will impact your enjoyment of the meat. If you choose to freeze, please follow your freezer manufacturers instructions.
