Directions. Melt stick of butter over low heat, add flour and stir until well blended. Remove from heat and gradually stir in milk and return to heat. Cook stirring constantly until thick and smooth.
Stir in cheese whiz and sherry and remove from heat. Fold in crab and shrimp and pour into buttered casserole dish.
Crush the crackers and stir into the 2 tbsp of melted butter. Sprinkle the buttered cracker crumbs over the top of the casserole and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
Bake at 350 degrees until crumbs are lightly browned and casserole is bubbly. Note: 3 1/2 lbs raw shrimp= 2 lbs cooked shrimp. Also you can make this ahead of time and freeze minus the cracker topping until ready to use and thaw completely before baking. Because it makes such a large amount you can also divide in half and use one now and freeze the other dish.
This casserole is very good,it's a good way to use canned crabmeat. I did make some changes,I used 1/2 lb. Fresh baby sprimp,which is a bit larger than the canned shrimp.
I used waverly crackers,instead of ritz(didn't have the ritz),the results were fine.I didn't add the hot sauce,(it dosen't like me)The baking time was much to short for my oven,the celery was to crunchy,I prefer it soft.When I make this dish again,I will saute the celery and onions a bit before adding to the other ingredients. The serving size came out for me, 3 generous portions.I served with a salad,so with a vegetable and a salad, 4 servings.The third portion I reheated in the micro-wave for lunch and I think it was better than the night before.
