Ingredients

1/2	cup	butter
1	cup	cream cheese
1/4	cup	mayonnaise
6	ounces	crab meat
1	large	onion	chopped fine
1	x	seafood cocktail sauce
2	tablespoons	lemon juice
1/2	teaspoon	garlic	crushed (or a, pinch of instant garlic)
1	tablespoon	worcestershire sauce

Directions

Allow butter and cream cheese to soften before starting.

Mix mayo, butter and cream cheese.

Do not use a blender, as the mixture will get soupy.

Add lemon juice, garlic, worcestershire sauce, pepper, etc. to taste.

Mix in crab (or whatever) and onion.

Of the choices, I feel crab is the best.

Chill at least two hours, cover with cocktail sauce. This is an important part of the recipe.

I recommend Wakefield crab meat, Shrimp or Shrimp and Crab.

You can make your own simple cocktail sauce by mixing 3 parts ketchup to 1 part horseradish and adding tabasco, garlic, worcestershire sauce to taste.

Serve over Triscuits (they're nice and strong, to survive heavy scooping) or veggies.
