These are authentic, genuine black tiger shrimp, raw and uncooked. Black Tiger Shrimp are known for their slightly sweet taste and firm flesh (a perfect ‘snap’—great for shrimp cocktails and on the barbeque).
Enjoy Jumbo Black Tiger Shrimp’s buttery texture and firmness, which make them ideal for sauteing, BBQing, shrimp cocktails, or anything else. They are 100% natural—no chemicals or preservatives. The tail is left on for a dramatic presentation in your best-ever shrimp cocktail, favorite pasta dish, seafood stew, or sauteed or grilled with a bit of garlic and lemon.
Each shrimp is flash-frozen within hours of harvest, preserving its delicious natural, sweet flavor and firm, succulent texture. This process also guarantees the shrimp’s freshness, making them a top-quality choice for your culinary creations. There are 16-20 shrimp per pound (or between 80 and 100 shrimp in 5 lbs.). Black tiger shrimp are sustainably farmed and chemical-free. During processing, each Peeled & Deveined Tail-On Shrimp is hand-peeled down to the tail, where the shell and vein are removed, but the tail is left on.
