I'm looking at a way to steam a bunch at once (preferably on stovetop).

I've got stockpots but all the steam baskets I'm finding hold a pretty small amount?

What are your setups?

I forego the steam inserts.  I use 1/2" of water and the claws/ legs pointed down keep the crabs above the waterline.  Or you could find a low profile expanding steamer...

I have one of these with the two steamer inserts. It's 12 quarts, but if I was cooking for a crowd I might need two.
