FAQs

Is anything added to your shrimp?

No. Nothing added: no preservatives, phosphates (STPP), or sulfites. Just wild Louisiana shrimp, peeled, deveined and frozen.

Are the shrimp peeled and deveined?

Yes, peeled, deveined and tailless, processed in a licensed Louisiana facility.

How is the shrimp shipped?

By ground, in an insulated cooler with dry ice. We ship Monday–Tuesday (Wednesday for some closer areas) and boxes arrive frozen in 3–4 days.

Are your shrimp fresh or frozen?

Our shrimp are frozen the day they are caught and not defrosted until the customer decides to. Shrimp freeze incredibly well and don't take on any weird tastes or textures.

Are shrimp healthy?

Shrimp are a lean source of protein, and ours have nothing added: no preservatives, phosphates, or sulfites.

What’s the best way to thaw the shrimp?

Keep the bag sealed and thaw it in a bowl or sink of cold water right before cooking, or in the refrigerator the night before.

Do frozen shrimp expire?

Likely not before you eat them all. Shrimp can last up to a year in a deep freezer.

How much shrimp is in a box?

Every box is large 16/20-count wild Louisiana shrimp in ½-lb bags of about 12–16 shrimp, enough for 1–2 people. The 5 lb box has 10 bags (about 10–15 servings) and the 8 lb box has 16 bags (about 16–24 servings).
