Where I live "fresh" means beef, chicken, or pork. I would put the pork and beef from Nebraska up with any in the nation! Fish can be rather iffy even in the good stores. I had a Mexican friend who made this. It is how he made it and it is really good. By all means, if you have good fresh crab, use it. I do not, so imitation is fine for me.
