the butter, as this will help flavor the crabs and
keep the butter from burning.
Add garlic,
onions, celery, bell pepper, green onions, parsley and
bay leaves. Stir the mixture constantly to keep the
garlic cloves from scorching and turning bitter (ugh).
Add Worcestershire sauce, cayenne Pepper and season to
taste using salt and pepper.
