IAMMAC Report post Posted September 2, 2016 Looking for a good local source besides the big box grocery/Asian stores in Phoenix for QUALITY snow crab legs. The grocery stores seem to have decent quality from time to time but I'm looking for jumbo legs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeke-BE Report post Posted September 2, 2016 Let me know. Because all I know is that most jumbo queens are usually sold to restaurants Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZ Archer Report post Posted September 2, 2016 Bluewater Grill on 51 & Camelback has a fish counter that sells them. I picked up some walleye from there a bit ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge Report post Posted September 2, 2016 Opies!!! I fished crabs in AK '98-'00. You may need to get ahold of a wholesale seafood co like Snopac or Icecicle foods in Seattle. Comes in 55# boxes, ask for #1 clusters can be mailed overnite, flash frozen. Price not too bad if you have a couple others go in on it with you. PS snow crab season is Jan till Mar, good luck. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IAMMAC Report post Posted September 2, 2016 zachcarp, looking to cook my own. AZ Archer, Thanks! Edge, looked it up and icicle bought out snpoac a while back. Gonna give them a call to see what the scoop is. Can't buy directly from the website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted September 2, 2016 there is an asian market on dobson and elliot called LeeLee. they have aquariums full of live dungeness crabs and also have live blue crabs most times. i like dungeness the best and hard to beat the freshness of a live crab. they are usually about $7 a pound and the big ones weigh around 3lbs.

n2horns Report post Posted September 2, 2016 If you can get to restaurant supply stores, they carry them. Albertsons has some of the better king crab and when they are 12 bucks a lb, from 20lb pick up some extra. Casino AZ north of Bass Pro has all you can eat Wed and Thurs 430pm to 10pm, like 19 bucks. Maricopa Harris Casino has Friday night with a bunch of other things like chicken and steak but get there at 4pm otherwise you wait an hour or more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest oneshot Report post Posted September 2, 2016 To get prime seafood/steaks, you need to befriend someone in the restaurant/ wholesalers, it is worth the effort/expense... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
