Shrimp and Crab stew

I made one last night for the game, came out real good and thought I'd share. Started off with a homemade roux.
I have a crab press that I press all my crab meat out the shells for lump meat and just remove the claws and add them as well. I made a stock with the crab and shrimp shells but no pic of that.
Here's the finished product

Have a buddy that's in the seafood industry here in SWLA and recommended this press that is made by a lady out of Florida, I'll never pick a crab again. Super easy and gets ALL of the meat out. Back the crab, clean the guts out, crack body in half, legs go in first with the half body on the outside and pull the press towards you and the meat comes out. I've tried many other kinds but this is the best I've ever used. I think I paid $40 for it. Simple design, just has a 4" half moon married to a tray with a U-Bolt that is also adjustable from the nuts on the bottom

Looks great! That roux is the real deal too.

Wow! I first saw a "crab press" about 25 years ago. I have posted here before about my brother's oyster knife and one of the investors we talked to was a guy in Galliano (I think), that had patented something very similar. His experience was disappointing. People didn't like the fact that the crab meat was crushed. But his point was that it quickly produced crabmeat that could put food in the freezer.

Crab meat from the body is really like soup, so I put the bodies in the freezer for about an hour or 2, firms up the meat and it pops right out.

I'm seriously intrigued by this crab press.

I'll never eat a wrinkled crab again.

I have a fast crab and it doesn't work worth a shite. By the time I pick out the shell I could have peeled it.

Please tell me where I can purchase this crab press. Thanks in advance. Would love to have one of these.

Nobody cares about your stew. We all want your press!
