IlanaKS Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I haven't had any in over 2 years and don't want to pay the high shipping cost. I'd prefer a market that sells them but will go to a restaurant, everywhere I look seems to normally have them but they aren't listed in the menu. Please help!!!

DanielK Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I have no idea if they carry them, but my first two thoughts for fresh seafood are always BlackSalt in DC and RiverFalls in Potomac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSalt my not "carry" them, but might be able to do special order. Call and speak to the new manager, M.J. or to Keith, if M.J. is not there.

Mrs. B Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Every so often, Harris Teeter has stone crab claws. They have been quite good in my estimation (purchased when they 1st appear)very sweet and meaty. I am rather picky about stone crabs, I grew up a stone crab claw throw away from Joe's in Miami Beach. They were a mainstay of my adolescent diet any my beloved Dad still sends them to me on occasion. Jonah's claws suck. I have heard, though never verified, that all stone crab (like most shrimp) is actually frozen. Any one have the inside knowledge on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any one have the inside knowledge on this? Fresh is a relative term when it comes to stone crabs. Claws are cooked immediately after harvest. This keeps the meat from deteriorating or sticking to the shell. They are then sold either "fresh" (cooked but never frozen) or frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
