Crab dip is Sean’s favorite food of all time, but it’s one usually reserved for special occasions since crab is on the expensive side. Having grown up in Maryland, there’s no question that we buy Phillips crab meat, but we’ve found that we like the claw meat the best for this recipe, which — thankfully! — is less expensive than the coveted backfin meat.
This is an easy dish to throw together for the SuperBowl game this Sunday, whether you’re watching as a family or having a larger get-together. Serve with lots of bread or crackers!
