SCRUMPTIOUS BROILED CRAB BALLS...EASY



Scrumptious Broiled Crab Balls...easy image

Sooo tasty and easy to throw together. The secret ingredient that makes these stand above the others is...Horseradish. Just adds that something. It doesn't matter how many I make they are gone in minutes. The recipe calls for Blue Claw Meat but feel free to use lump if you like. I think the blue claw is sweeter & usually no bones. Enjoy!
