cHILantic half shell clams

half shell clams

Shore Seafood's Chilantic half shell clams are a seafood delicacy that offer ease and convenience in preparation. Our clams are harvested along the bountiful waters of the East Coast of the United States. Once back to our plant and undergoing a thorough quality inspection, our team individually shucks each clam on to the half shell. The clam is then quick-frozen to preserve freshness in our FDA-inspected facility. Chilantic's clams are from the Mercenaria, Merceneria family and is an all-natural product. Our half shell clam line features a top-neck and little-neck size which allows a convenient option for multiple applications.


Our clams do not contain any additives or preservatives resulting in a clean label. They are packaged in an inter-weaved bubble pack to protect shells from breaking and for a secure fit during transit. With 12 layers of 12 clams sitting in an airtight bag to preserve freshness inside our double corrugated, Chilantic master carton, our 144-count case makes for a visually appealing and easy-to-handle pack. An extended shelf life of 24 months, coupled with year-round availability, assures you always have inventory without the worry of spoilage.


The ease of a clean, additive-free product, without expensive labor costs, makes for an ideal option on any menu. Easy preparation allows multiple methods to defrost - running tap water over the clam, slow-thaw in a refrigerator overnight, or quick-thaw in the microwave. No matter the method, you're sure to be serving a terrific tasting clam.
