ABSTRACT:
A crabmeat extraction apparatus and method for extracting the meat of the crab from its inner meat cavities using uniquely designed cleaning probe and conveying tube used in association with a standard home vacuum cleaner as a suction source to pull the crabmeat into a central container. The system includes suction hoses with crabmeat probes attached thereon leading to the collection container. The meat collection container has a hose attachment leading to a standard home-type vacuum cleaner which serves as the source of negative air pressure or suction for collecting the meat. Additionally, a little water is initially sucked into the system to keep the meat moist and lubricate the tubes. The crab is initially prepared by removing the outer shell (carapace), the legs, etc. and the entrails, etc. The inner, meat-containing body is then quartered by means of breaking or cutting the inner body in half in a vertical plane and cutting the halves into quarters in the horizontal plane, exposing the crab meat in the meat cavities for removal by the apparatus of the present invention.
