Ingredients

  • 2 cans cream of potato soup
  • 2 cans cream of celery soup
  • 3-4 cans 6 oz. can of crabmeat, drained
  • 2 Tbsp. Old Bay Seasoning
  • 1 medium onion chopped optional
  • 1/2 stick butter or margarine
  • 4-6 cups milk

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in the bottom of a Dutch oven on medium high heat.
  • Add the chopped onions to the melted butter and continue cooking on medium high heat until the onions are glazed or just about clear.
  • Add in the soups and the crabmeat and stir well.
  • Pour milk into the empty soup cans and then into the Dutch oven, stir well. I fill each soup can twice, scraping the sides with a spoon to get all of the soup. (The amount of milk you use will depend on your personal preference as to how thick you want your stew)
  • Add in the Old Bay and stir well.
  • Because this is a milk base stew, you will need to stir often.
  • Continue cooking on medium high heat until the stew reaches a soft boil.
  • Turn down and simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring often.
  • Serve and enjoy!
