Lump Crabmeat Stuffed Mushroom Caps

in Appetizers
Mushroom caps were brushed with garlic butter and stuffed with lump crabmeat.  S & P and Old Bay seasonings. Topped with butter toasted Panko, parsley and parm.  Egged indirect at 375 for 12 minutes and finished with cocktail sauce.  Thought this experiment would be very tasty, meh.  Mediocre.  Just not a bunch of flavor other than mushroom and cocktail sauce.  Onward.

    But it looks pretty it has some of my favorite ingredients.  I'm surprised you felt it was  'meh'.  Good to know. Maybe needs something with the higher ratio of crab to everything else.  I've been grilled toast with all of that would be yummy.

    Well they look good. 

    I did some a few weeks ago with lump crab and baby portobellos. Soaked them in burgundy for a minute and did a remulaude sauce. I gave up on white mushrooms for texture and flavor.

    I like the thought. Can see how crab would get lost there. Need something strong like hot sausage or chorizo. Amy makes some good stuff d shrooms in the clock. Need to try egging for some added smokiness

    They look outstanding brother. When I make them, I grind the mushroom stems and mix with the crabmeat, and a little ground onion and celery. Love the mushroom. So many possibilities.

    Nice experiment Brent.  

    I would try some crab, spinach, and sundried tomatoes with a parm and panko topping. This works great for salmon and even turkey stuffed shrooms.   

    Again thanks for a cooking thread.

    Maybe meh but, looks good. I've had good responses using baby bellas or full size bellas and stuff with my same mixture I use for crab cakes and then finish with a shredded cheese mix of sorts and sauce if desired. Play with the flavors and I'm sure you'll find what works best for yourself.

    It needs work.  Had hoped to highlight the lump crabmeat.  Recovery meal to be posted tomorrow Blake.

    It surprisingly was a fail. Thanks for seeing the thought behind it!
