Crab Fries With Beer Cheese Sauce Recipes

OLD BAY® FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Toss French fries and oil together in a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons seafood seasoning and toss to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 35 to 45 minutes.
• While fries are baking, make the cheese sauce by combining milk and seafood seasoning in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Add cheese when milk begins to steam and little bubbles begin to form around the edges. Stir gently and frequently until all cheese is melted. Serve immediately on the side as a dipping sauce with hot fries.

CRAB FRIES

Steps:

• Prepare your preferred method for frying french fries, such as oil on a stovetop, countertop fryer or air fryer at 350 degrees F.
• Drop the frozen fries into the oil and cook for 8 minutes (if you prefer a little extra-crisp, cook for an additional 2 minutes). Transfer to a medium bowl.
• Season with the Fry Seasoning to taste. Drizzle with the Char Grill Butter and toss until the fries are all covered.
• To a bowl or plate of your choice, add a layer of fries, an even layer of the Char Grill Cheese, lump crab and a drizzle of the Crab Mayo on top, then repeat the process.
• In a medium bowl, combine the paprika, salt, chili powder, granulated garlic and cayenne. Stir with a whisk until all ingredients are incorporated. Store in an airtight container, up to 1 month.
• In a medium stockpot, combine the butter, lemon juice, garlic, hot sauce, Worcestershire, salt, granulated garlic, liquid smoke and 1/2 cup water. Melt the butter on low heat, then turn the heat to medium and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat. (Be sure not to bring the mixture to a boil.) Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
• Combine the Parmesan, mozzarella, granulated garlic and parsley in a large mixing bowl. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until chopped into small pieces. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
• In a large bowl, combine the parsley, onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, hot sauce, honey and seafood seasoning until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
