Thank you so much Bobby for this wonderful recipe. I made it the other night for a pre-Thanksgiving dinner and I could tell right away that I had picked a great recipe to serve to my guests. Even though it was very rich they kept eating it. I served it with Ritz crackers and toasted baguette slices. I only used 1/2 half of a large juicy lime. Tonight I made it again and I had the little small Mexican limes so I used two of those. I also grated a little parmesan cheese to put on the top and sprinkled a litte cayenne pepper on top of it. After baking I garnished it with a tomato rose and some basil leaves.

This has become a staple! I don't use the garlic or basil, but add in chopped jalapenos, and make a jalapeno/cheddar bread to serve it with...delicious!!

This was awesome. A friend donated a bushel of crabs which I cooked and picked, needed something to do with all that crab meat. I have served this three times now, twice as a dip; another time stuffing large mushrooms and baking. A smashing hit both times. Just made another round today for over the weekend. You can easily get two serving or split into different uses. I did not do the avocado and served on rice cracker or corn chips

It was "ok" the first time I made this following the recipe exactly (which I normally don't do. I made it again and tweaked it and turned out, in my opinion, fantastic. One person said it was better than dip they would get on the coast. Here is what I changed....only used juice of one lime - I soaked the avocados in the juice of the second lime while it baked. I added 3 jalapenos (1 1/2 of them I used seeds/ribs, old bay seasoning, garlic salt, more cracked pepper, more green onions (3/4 bunch, and a whole head of garlic minced. I think that made a world of difference.

I don't know what went wrong, but when this was heated in the oven, the crab meat started stinking. It smelled so horrible that no one could eat it. The dates were current on the containers so I kind of think the flavors just didn't meld for some reason. Very disappointed as it looked delicious on the tv.

Fantastic combo of flavors, I used whipped cream cheese since it is easier to mix. I also 1/2ed the recipe with no problem since others said it was a huge amount of dip. Wish I hadn't since it was devoured in no time! Everyone who tried it asked for the recipe

Made this on Monday for a party and it was a hit. I used scoops chips per someone recomendation and it worked well. But next time I think I will use bread as the dip is very soft and the bread will still cut through it.

Very good & very rich crab dip! I accidentally used 1/2 the recommended amount of crab and it was still very crabby, so I can only think using the full amount would be even better. Works really well with blue corn tortilla chips. This recipe makes LOTS of dip, so use it for a crowd.

This was a great recipe!!!! Everyone loved it. Two amendments I made: 1 I used half lump crab and half claw crab meat which reduces the price but doesn't reduce the quality (come on its to much fat to even notice 2 I added 5 or 6 dashes of hot sauce to give it a kick. Beware - this makes a lot of dip so unless you plan on ~8 people I suggest only making half of it (which further reduces the cost of this dip.
