This was really good, but I added 2 tsp dry sherry, and I think that's a big part of what made it so good.

This is an amazing Crab dip! Everyone loved it at my brother in laws party. It was gone in no time!!! I had to change a few things do to not having some stuff on hand. I used imitation crab, about 14 oz almost a pack and a half. I used monterey jack cheese instead of cheddar and I used about a cup or so. I didn't have any hot sauce, so I used about a tsp of cayenne pepper. No old bay seasoning so I ground up some celery seed maybe a tsp. Ground up some bay leaves about 3, Put some ground ginger, paprika, pepper, and lots of garlic and onion powder. I didn't have mustard powder so I used a tblsp mustard. I also only used 1 tblsp lemon juice. MAN, I didn't have a lot of stuff, hehe. Well it was absolutely amazing, and everyone loved it!!! Thank you.

FAN-TAS-TIC! I made this New Year's Eve and it was a hit. My husband had a business trip earlier this year to Maryland and he said it tasted exactly like what he had when he was there. Thanks so much - will make again, and again :)

I made this for Christmas and everyone loved it the only thing I did different was added a few more dashes of hot sauce and less old bay and topped off with mozzerella cheese which really browned well and served with flour tortilla's.

i made this basically according to the recipe~ although i did add cheese to the mix as well as on top (we LOVE cheese!) i put it in the toaster oven to cook and accidently broiled it for the first 15 min or so. it turned a nice brown golden color and then i ended up baking for just about 10 min. i toasted some pita and served the dip with that and some of the new triscut parmasean crackers... it was PHENOMENAL!!! everyone LOVED it! apparently this is the new fave and im making it again for a christmas eve party! thank you!!!

I made this for a work party and it was okay. I still have 1/2 left. I love crab, but I even thought this was okay. I followed the directions mostly - left out the hot sauce and used 1 tbsp of Old Bay as most people suggested. I even cooked it for 45 minutes, because it didn't seem to set. It was very runny. I probably won't do this again, sorry.

Definitely cut back on the Old Bay! I used 1 TBS instead of 2 TBS and even then I was playing with fire. A few more dashes and the Old Bay would have been overkill. To be safe next time I am going to use just shy of 1TBS. Instead of 1/2 cup of cheddar I increased it to 1 cup. With these modifications this dip was DELICIOUS! It is best on crusty baguette slices brushed with oil and garlic.

The best crab dip I've ever made! I made some small adjustments based on previous reviews: 1 tbsp old bay was plenty, increased cheese to 2 cups, used a few extra tablespoons sour cream, and used a full 16oz of lump crabmeat. It was a huge hit at my work party and the pan disappeared pretty quickly. Thanks so much!

I'll be making this for a Thanksgiving appetizer for the fifth year in a row this year. Our hosts always ask me to bring the Crab Dip. The first year I made the recipe as written, now I sort of taste and tinker to fit my individual tastes as I put it together, but the recipe is excellent just as it is. I like to put it together the night before and chill, and then cook it before serving, I think this helps the flavors balance and come together.

If you're from Maryland...this is the BEST crab dip ever! I had lots of Old Bay and extra cheese! Serve with french bread or Town house crackers. I make it at our Annual Wine Fest in Md. and just made it again at Christmas....lots of compliments!!!

Yep, it's definitely authentic Maryland style crab dip! I bought some fresh crab at Baltimore's Lexington Market while visiting on Friday and made this dip on Saturday. I used only 2 teaspoons of Old Bay since I don't like too much spice, but it gave it just the right kick. I baked the dip in individual ramikin dishes which was a nice presentation. Definitely keeping this one!

This was not a favorite recipe in our house. We thought it had way too much seasoning and I used less than called for. Had a odd after taste. Won't be making this again, sorry! I love crab but this was just not the recipe I was looking for.

Im not from Maryland but I made the recipe and people really liked it, but some tried it before baking and they said they liked it more cold without the cheese. But they finished it all anyway :)
