do you cook the meat then pick and freeze, make the cakes and freeze them, cook the crabs and freeze them whole. I have so many questions.

I clean the crabs first. Then I season them with JO or Old Bay and put them in the steamer. We will eat what we can that night. Then after that I pick the meat and freeze it for future recipes. Vacuum sealed crab meat freezes very well.
