If you’re looking to elevate a weeknight dinner without the hassle of starting from scratch, Wick’s Crabmeat Stuffing is essentially a "pro-chef shortcut" in a tub. Produced by Wick's Kitchens in Trainer, PA, this 2 lb container offers a pre-seasoned, ready-to-use seafood base that saves you the time (and mess) of picking and seasoning crab yourself.
Wick's Crabmeat Stuffing is a classic, savory blend designed for versatility. It features real crabmeat mixed with a traditional base of breadcrumbs, eggs, and a signature blend of seasonings. Because it includes ingredients like anchovy and a variety of spices, it delivers a deep, "umami" seafood flavor profile that complements mild proteins perfectly.

1. The Showstoppers (Main Courses)
- Crab-Stuffed Salmon: Slice a pocket into a thick salmon fillet and generously pack it with the stuffing. Bake with a pat of butter and a squeeze of lemon.
- Stuffed Flounder or Tilapia: Place a scoop of stuffing in the center of a thin white fish fillet and roll it up. Secure with a toothpick and bake until the fish is flaky and the stuffing is golden.
- Seafood-Stuffed Chicken: Follow the "Cordon Bleu" style but swap the ham and cheese for this crab mixture. It creates a high-end "Surf & Turf" feel in every bite.
2. The Party Starters (Appetizers)
- Classic Stuffed Mushrooms: Remove the stems from cremini or button mushrooms, fill the caps with stuffing, and top with a sprinkle of parmesan or Gruyère before broiling.
- Stuffed Shrimp: Butterfly jumbo shrimp and press a small mound of stuffing onto the back. It’s a steakhouse classic that’s surprisingly easy to do at home.
- Crab Rangoon "Cheaters": Use the stuffing as a filling for wonton wrappers. Fry them up for a crispy, savory snack.
3. The Kitchen Hacks
- Quick Crab Cakes: If the consistency allows, you can form the stuffing into small patties, coat them in a little extra panko, and pan-fry them for quick crab cakes.
- Baked Seafood Dip: Mix a bit of softened cream cheese or mayo into the stuffing, top with cheddar, and bake until bubbly. Serve with toasted baguette slices.
Pro Tip: For the best results, brush the top of the stuffing with a little melted butter before baking to get that perfect, golden-brown crust.
Frozen items are shipped with dry ice to ensure the arrive fully frozen. Please place them directly into your freezer upon arrival.
If you order fresh and frozen items together, we package your shipment using gel ice packs instead of dry ice to protect your fresh goods. As a result, frozen items may partially thaw during transit. You can safely place them straight back into your freezer, or allow them to finish defrosting and enjoy right away.
Defrosting Guidelines
- Overnight in the Fridge: Small packs take 6–12 hours; large packs take 12–48 hours.
- Cold Water Bowl: Submerge sealed items in cold water for a faster thaw.
- Note: Do not use hot water or attempt to thaw by cooking, as this ruins the natural texture and flavor.
