    We absolutely love the Topsail Steamer Gulf Shores experience! You can choose from their ready to make menu or customize with your favorite seafood options.

    After cooking a steam bucket from Topsail Steamer, my husband told me he is now madly in love with snow crabs legs done this way. The 1st time we tried it he told me we HAD to get a steamer bucket the next time his family came to visit.

    I am pretty sure he has told everyone he wants them to experience Topsail Steamer.

    The steam bucket is seriously easy to cook on the stovetop, even with a glass top. I was worried that our glass top might not work but it ended up being great.

    Gulf Shores Topsail Steamer sends you home with easy-to-follow instructions, a roll of paper to protect a table or counter, and seasoning.

    The giant roll of paper made clean up a breeze. We just threw our shrimp tails and crab legs into the steamer bucket to toss when we were done.

    The only thing we didn't have was crab claw crackers or a mallet, which we realized as we were pouring out the steamer pot. My husband improvised with kitchen scissors because nothing was topping him from getting every bite of this seafood boil.

    I looked at the crackers at Topsail Steamer and almost picked some up, but figured we had to have one...oops.

    If you are looking for an epic seafood feast you can cook in your vacation rental or condo this is a great option!
