Grown in the nutrient-rich waters of Port Phillip Bay, our Extra Large Mussels are a premium seafood experience, offering a naturally sweet, briny flavour and a plump, meaty texture. Sourced from the renowned mussel farms off Portarlington, Victoria, these mussels are cultivated using sustainable longline farming methods, allowing them to grow naturally while filtering the surrounding water, contributing to a cleaner marine ecosystem. Their larger size makes them perfect for those who love full-bodied, juicy mussels with a firm bite and a deep, ocean-fresh taste. Whether steamed, grilled, or tossed through pasta, these mussels deliver restaurant-quality seafood in every bite.
Portarlington is home to some of Australia’s finest mussels, grown in the nutrient-rich waters of Port Phillip Bay. The bay’s natural tidal flow and cool, temperate conditions create the perfect environment for mussels to thrive, resulting in plump, sweet shellfish packed with natural goodness.

Keep your mussels in the netted bag and simply place them in a bowl and place a clean wet towel or ice over the top. Then store them at 0 – 4 °C in your refrigerator.
When preparing the mussels to cook, place them in a colander in the sink and run water over them, using hands or a clean scrubbing brush to rub off any debris from the shell. Only discard the mussels with broken shells or if they emit an off smell.
The “beard” of a mussel is the clump of hair-like fibers that sprout from the shell. We aim to remove as much beard as possible, but some may remain. To remove the beard from the mussel, grab it with your thumb and forefinger and tug it toward the hinge of the shell and till it releases.
Once mussels are cleaned and debearded, they’re ready to cook. Cook and consume mussels within 48 hours of purchase.
1. If your mussels are open before cooking you don’t have to throw them away.
2. If they are closed after cooking you don’t have to throw them away.
