Ms Speed's Crab Stew

Clint acquired this recipe from an older neighbor at Shellman who used to work at Speed's "back in the day", LOL. Thanks for sharing, 'cause it's easy, and more importantly... tastes EXACTLY like the stew at Speed's. 'Course, as I've recently been told... not everyone likes Ms Speed's stew (it's too crabby, or too thick, etc.). But, if you do... give it a try!

1 can cream of onion soup
1 can cream of potato soup
