A Lubbock Staple for 70+ Years
We all know United Supermarkets. They’ve been a fixture here in the Hub City for over seven decades—a place where most of us have grabbed everything from last-minute groceries to birthday cakes. But even if you’ve been walking those aisles since childhood, there’s a good chance you’ve missed one of their coolest (and tastiest) services: they’ll steam your seafood for you–for FREE!
Pick Your Catch, Pick Your Flavor
Here’s how it works: you walk up to the seafood counter, choose your favorite fresh fish or shellfish—salmon, shrimp, tilapia, even lobster—and the United crew will toss it in their steamer right there on the spot. No charge. And they don’t stop there. They’ll season it with your choice of flavors, too. Want a classic Old Bay kick? Done. Prefer lemon pepper? They’ve got you. They also offer several other tasty blends, so you can mix it up depending on your mood.
On their website, United even calls it out:
“Bake, sauté or grill seafood. Avoid frying or serving with cream sauces. Did you know United Supermarkets will season and steam almost any seafood item in our case for free? That makes a healthy dinner quick and easy!”…
