Eating stone crab in Florida isn’t just about taste—it’s an experience. Locals don’t overcomplicate it—they crack, dip, and enjoy. CrabFather makes it easy to enjoy this Florida tradition at home with Fishermen’s Grade™ stone crab claws, delivered fresh from Everglades City. Here’s how to eat stone crab like a true Floridian:
1. Crack with care: Every 10-pound bag from CrabFather comes with a free branded mallet. Use it to gently tap the shell, breaking it cleanly without crushing the tender meat inside. Precision is key—each perfect crack reveals sweet, firm, buttery crab meat, ready to enjoy.
2. Dip with style: Mustard sauce is essential. Its tangy richness perfectly complements the natural sweetness of Florida stone crab. CrabFather also offers its signature mustard sauce for purchase, allowing you to fully embrace the local flavor. For adventurous eaters, a squeeze of fresh lemon or a hint of hot sauce adds another dimension, but the classic mustard dip is always a favorite.
3. Keep it cool: Stone crab claws are best served chilled, never heated. CrabFather’s catch-to-order system ensures your claws are harvested fresh, cooked the same day, and delivered in temperature-controlled containers. The result? Crabs that taste just like they were pulled from the Gulf that morning.
4. Enjoy the view: Eating crab is as much about ambiance as it is about flavor. Bonus points if you’re dining by the water—on a deck, at the beach, or even imagining the sunrise over the Gulf. The experience is heightened by connecting with nature while enjoying a fresh, local delicacy.
5. Share the experience: Stone crab season is a celebration meant to be shared. Invite family and friends, create memories over a communal meal, and savor the tradition together. CrabFather brings the Gulf Coast experience to your home, with every bag reflecting Jonathan and Milan’s personal care.
Every Fishermen’s Grade™ order is a connection to the people, passion, and place behind it. From Jonathan’s decades of expertise to Milan’s enthusiastic participation, your crab purchase becomes part of a story of family, dedication, and Florida heritage.
