Wild-caught lobster is professionally harvested, cooked, fresh-picked, then flash-frozen by sustainable fishing operations in the North Atlantic.
Advantages of Frozen Lobster Meat
1. Unmatched Taste
Our lobster meat is sourced from the shores of Maine, renowned for producing the most flavorful and sought after lobsters. We partner with the most sustainable, reliable, and trustworthy fishery in the North Atlantic to ensure all wild lobsters are responsibly caught. One important fishing practice is the ‘oversized measure’, which simply is the practice of throwing back both the larger and smaller lobsters. This helps maintain the lobster population.
Once caught, lobsters are inspected, sized, and cooked. The meat is then picked, rinsed, and meticulously inspected for defects and foreign material. The finished product is packaged in vacuum-sealed poly bags, labeled, and stored at <0°F. The flash-freezing process ensures that the lobster's natural freshness and taste are preserved, allowing you to enjoy a premium dining experience. The process of flash-freezing lobster meat ensures peak freshness and taste. Some argue that flash-frozen lobster meat is just as, if not fresher than lobster meat advertised as fresh. With fresh lobster meat from a grocer, it’s important to be mindful of how long it’s been sitting on ice in the display.
