Red Lobster Teams Up With Flavor Flav For Return Of Crabfest

Flavor Flav Joins Red Lobster to Announce Crabfest Return

Red Lobster has officially teamed up with superfan Flavor Flav to herald the return of Crabfest.

“When longtime Red Lobster fan Flavor Flav reaches out to rally fans, the only fitting response back is… Yeah Boyeeeee!,” Red Lobster announced in a press release.

Last week, Flavor Flav, 65, posted on social media that he “ordered the whole menu” in an effort to support the seafood chain after it recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

“Ya boy meant it when I said I was gonna do anything and everything to help @redlobster and save the cheddar bay biscuits,” the legendary hip hop hype man wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Now, the chain has enlisted Flav to reassure fellow fans that Red Lobster isn’t going anywhere.

“We love seeing our fans show up and rally for us, so when Flavor Flav reached out, we answered the call and invited him to join us in reminding fans we’re here to stay,” said Sara Bittorf, Chief Experience Officer at Red Lobster, in a statement.

For Crabfest, guests can enjoy “Crab Your Way,” choosing from a full pound of steamed, wild-caught snow crab legs or Bairdi crab legs, with flavor options including new Cajun Butter, Roasted Garlic Butter, or Simply Steamed.

Other crab menu items start at just $20. New offerings include the $20 Creamy Crab Carbonara, Crab & Lobster Duo, and Snow Crab & Crab-Topped Steak. Sides feature the new Crab Mac & Cheese, and guests can wash it down with the new Big Breezy Hurricane.
