On the Carolina coasts, quality seafood is just as much a staple of American cuisine as apple pie. It’s from there— sourced with the highest principles—that we get this firm textured, fresh large shrimp. With about 16 to 20 shrimp per pound, they are plump, sweet, and tender—perfect for a classic shrimp cocktail or garlicky sautés.
For Shrimp Cocktail: Peel and devein first. Then, steam or boil the raw shrimp until they’re perfectly cooked through and tender. You can also try them in classic Shrimp Scampi, or our recipe for Baked Shrimp with Coconut-Lime Sauce.
Portion Size
Our Wild-Caught Large Shrimp come 16-20 per pound. Enjoy 4-5 pieces for an appetizer or 8-10 as a main course per person when serving shrimp. The size of this order is 1lb (16-20 per lb), which serves 2-4 people.

Our Carolina shrimp are sourced from the northernmost shrimping region in the United States. The colder water results in a higher fat content (and rich, succulent shrimp).
Wine Pairings
"Enjoy with a cool glass of coastal Italian white like Vermentino or Verdicchio."
