ABSTRACT:
A crawfish peeling device provides a post that can be mounted on a tray. The post has first and second end portions, the first end portion having a slotted passageway, appointed tip, a pair of tapered flanges that are spaced apart on opposite sides of the slotted passageway and a ramp that is at the bottom of the slotted portion for catching the edible meat product when the user threads the tail upon the tip and then moves the tail from the first to the second end portion of the post. The present invention also provides an improved method of peeling a crustacea such as a crawfish or crawfish that includes the step of providing a post that has first and second end portions, the first end portion having a tip, a slot, tapered flanges on opposite sides of the slot, and a ramp at one end portion of the slot opposite the tip. The crawfish tail is threaded upon the tip. The tail is then moved toward the ramp. The tip and flanges are used to spread apart the tail shell section so that the edible meat product remains in the slot. The ramp can optionally be used to eject the edible meat product from the slot.
