 Peel and devein shrimp. Place heads and shells in
 stockpot with 12 cups water, and simmer over low heat
 until needed.

 In a 6-quart stockpot, combine crabs, sausages, beef or
 stew meat and gizzards; cook, stirring occasionally to
 prevent scorching, over low flame for 30 minutes.

 In a heavy-bottomed saute pan, whisk oil and flour
 together over low to moderate heat, and cook, whisking
 constantly until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Add
 onions, and cook, stirring, until soft. Pour mixture
 into pot with meats, and stir gently until well
 combined. Strain shrimp stock. Add to pot with enough
 water to make 14 cups liquid. Bring to a boil. Add
 chicken wings, smoked ham, paprika, garlic, thyme, bay
 leaves and salt, and simmer 30 minutes. Add peeled
 shrimp, and simmer 10 minutes. Add oysters, and turn off
 heat. Stir in file.

 Serve over rice, and garnish with fresh parsley.
