Restaurant Ready® Mussels

American Mussel Harvesters Inc. (AMH) is a fully integrated live shellfish company. Through sustainable harvesting methods, they provide us with quick, fresh, high quality products. Their pledge of quality promises to deliver clean, grit free shellfish with an extended shelf life, from genuine brands with a high quality. Daily shipping and overnight capabilities provide us with the ability to get this product to our customers faster and fresher.
 
We are happy to let you know that Plitt Seafood is now carrying their product! Their Restaurant Ready® family of shellfish provides a high quality, high flavor profile product with better yields and less preparation time. What’s not to love about that?!
 
AMH’s line of East Coast mussels has recently been added to the Plitt inventory, and we’re confident this is a product our customers will enjoy. They have developed a system that enables them to harvest the mussels and immediately place them into the Restaurant Ready® seawater system at AMH’s processing facility on the western shore of Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island. This system has been designed to control the seawater environment to ensure high quality, fresh product for all of their customers. By manipulating the seawater, AMH is able to minimize the bacteria levels, and slow the metabolic rates of the shellfish, providing a longer shelf life at the consumer end on a product with deep flavor profiles. That means shells free of sand, grit and beards, and ready for your culinary masterpieces.

Because of these unique harvesting techniques, our AMH East Coast mussels are larger than the ones we see coming in from other areas out east. They come in bags of 10 lbs., and are at a great price for customers. Perhaps the best part about them, though, is that they are ready to go from bag to pot with no prep time! Be sure to talk to your sales reps about this great new product; we know you’ll love it!
