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.

Delicious 😋. Huge lumps made great crab imperial!
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,
