Very good. I'd give it 4.5 if I could (I save 5 for truly exceptional recipes). I baked it and it was perfect. Husband asked for it to go into the regular rotation. Next time I will fry it just to taste the difference but I thought baked was delicious.

Very good recipe. I come back to this year after year. I looked at my original copy and it was printed in 2003. Use only real crab meat. Canned doesn't do this recipe justice. I don't do the bread bowl - just serve with a variety of crackers and baguette slices. I add a bit more Old Bay (I'm in Maryland - I have to!), only about 1/4 cup of the capers. Also add a bit of crushed red pepper. Recipe is a bit expensive but worth the cost for special events/parties. (I only give 5 stars for truly exceptional recipes - I'd give this 4 1/2 if I could).

Great recipe. I used the Amazingly Good Eggnog recipe on this site for the eggnog and it was delicious. Great recipe. Only change I made was to add a bit of cinnamon to the crust.
