Outstanding lunch! I split 2 english muffins and lightly toasted them (warmed them up), spread some Mayo, light coating of creamy horseradish topped with crab. Put in broiler for 90 seconds, covered with sliced pieces of pepper-jack cheese, back to broiler for 2 min or until cheese melts and lightly brown! WOW! One the second english muffin and omitted the horseradish and sprinkled the top of the crab with Old Bay seasoning. Same times followed by pepper-jack cheese and this too was fantastic. Next time (tomorrow lunch) I am going to go for BOTH the horseradish and the Old Bay seasoning! Can't wait! Wayne

These made were a delicious, quick weeknight dinner. I loved the addition of horseradish, and I even added a little Frank's Red Hot for some extra "zing". Perfect! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe.

This is the best tasting crab melt recipe I have ever tried and it is so easy. The ingredients are things I already have on hand. If you really want to impress someone make this recipe!

Oh, were these good! I added some hot sce, horseradish mustard and a little sour cream/mayo combo. Topped with tomato and mixed greens with provolone chz instead of cheddar! I gobbled down an extra half! -I used lite whole wheat english muffins for the extra fiber! Thanks for the idea for canned crab!

I make a similar recipe. I slice up cheese, then a tomato. To add more flavor, I add worcestershire sauce, a dash of hot sauce, cocktail sauce and cream cheese. Then I top the split english muffin with a slice of cheese, the tomato slice, and top it with the crab salad mix. Then I bake it until the cheese is melted.

I thought this was a quick, simple recipe and one that, as the originator said could be used for any occasion from a teaparty, shower to an unexpected luncheon guest. I like to have something in the house that I can whip up if that unexpected guest shows up around lunchtime and this definitely fits the bill. I will use it again, both for company and myself. I am a crab lover. The only modification I made was to use 8 oz of crab because I had some fresh Phillips crab on hand and it came in that quantity. I prefer fresh but I bought a can of crab to keep on hand for unexpected guests. I always have the remaining ingredients on hand. Thanks for the recipe.

Having a crabber hubby and always looking for new crab recipes, I tried this new recipe.I used to just put crab on a muffin and broil cheese. It was boring, so I looked up these recipes. I subbed the tarragon for a dollup of horseradish and YUMMY! soooo good! Will be serving these as an appetizer before our big Xmas dinner with family. It's that good!
