NEW BRUNSWICK LOBSTER CASSEROLE
Our lobster season starts May 1 in the Chaleur Bay region of New Brunswick, Canada. I know it seems a shame to put lobster meat in a casserole, but this is so delicious, and because we often buy 10-20 lbs of fresh lobster right from the fishermen, we often have some left over after we have our first feed. I often use it for a special luncheon with a salad or as an entree with a buffet dinner. I am always asked for the recipe.

THE BEST LOBSTER CASSEROLE
I've had people say this is the best lobster dish they ever ate. I played around with this recipe because this is similar to the way my Mom used to make it, but she didn't go by recipes. Living near New Bedford and having the luxury of all the fresh seafood markets available, I usually buy my lobsters live and cook them at home and pick them myself. The biggest one I ever cooked was 10 1/2 pounds. This recipe calls for the tomalley, the green stuff in the head, not absolutely neccesary but it adds a nice flavor to the topping. If you have access to a fish market that has fresh lobsters and ask the fish monger to save you some of the tomalley it will make a difference. I didn't include a measurement for the tomalley because it depends on what you get from the lobster. If you have the fish market cook the lobster, tell them not to over cook it because the meat will cook again. My last 8 1/2 pounder I only boiled for 30 minutes, no more. You will need a batch of Hailey's Favorite Cheese Sauce, recipe #364959 for this. I usually do individual casserole dishes for everyone but you could easily do this in a bigger dish, your choice. The cook or prep time does not include cooking the lobster or picking the lobster or the cheese sauce time. I've also used this recipe with scallops.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine Ritz crackers butter and tomalley in medium sized bowl.
- Spray each casserole dish with Pam.
- Divide the lobster meat into 4 individual casserole dishes.
- Pour cheese sauce over lobster.
- Put the Ritz topping on the casseroles.
- Bake uncovered for 20 - 25 minutes or until cheese sauce is bubbly.
- Put the casseroles under a low broiler for a few minutes to brown the topping being careful not to burn the topping.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use homemade lobster stock instead of water. You can make lobster stock by simmering lobster shells and vegetables in water for about an hour.
- If you don't have any lobster on hand, you can substitute shrimp, crab, or even cooked chicken.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini.
- If you want a crispy topping, sprinkle some bread crumbs or crushed crackers on top of the casserole before baking.
- Serve the casserole with a side of melted butter or drawn butter for dipping.
Conclusion:
New Brunswick Lobster Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover lobster, and it's also a great dish to serve to company. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and tender lobster meat, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
