FAQ - Black Tiger Shrimp

What does “super colossal shrimp” mean?

Shrimp are sized by how many pieces make up a pound. “Super colossal” refers to some of the largest shrimp available, typically under 10 shrimp per pound (U/10).

Fewer shrimp per pound means each shrimp is larger and meatier.

How big are super colossal shrimp?

Super colossal shrimp are significantly larger than standard shrimp. Each piece is thick, substantial, and ideal for dishes where shrimp is meant to be the centerpiece.

What’s the difference between jumbo and colossal shrimp?

The main difference is size.

  • Jumbo shrimp: smaller, more common
  • Colossal shrimp: larger, more substantial
  • Super colossal shrimp: among the largest available

Larger shrimp offer a firmer texture and more pronounced bite.

How should I cook super colossal shrimp?

Because of their size, they perform best with high heat:

  • grill for 2–3 minutes per side
  • pan-sear until just opaque
  • roast at high heat for even cooking

Avoid overcooking, as shrimp can become firm and dry.

Are larger shrimp better?

Not necessarily better—just different.

Larger shrimp are preferred for:

  • grilling
  • surf & turf
  • shrimp cocktail
  • presentation-driven dishes

Smaller shrimp are better for pastas, stir-fries, and mixed dishes.

How do I thaw shrimp properly?

  • Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, or
  • Under cold running water for quicker thawing

Avoid thawing at room temperature.
