Stuffed Red Snapper

This week, I want to share a couple of recipes from a restaurant I first ate at in my childhood, Don's Seafood and Steakhouse.

1 1/2 cups onions, chopped

1/2 cup celery, chopped

1/4 pound butter

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/2 cup bread crumbs

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

4 pounds fillet of red snapper

1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 stale hamburger buns

4 eggs

1 pound white crabmeat

1/4 cup tomato catsup

Boil shrimp, drain water and chop (not to fine). Wilt onions and celery in butter. Add tomato catsup and mix well. Add sugar, black pepper and salt. Cook for 5 minutes. Put buns and eggs in a bowl; mix will and add shrimp. Mix well. Add crabmeat and bread crumbs. Mix well and it will be ready to stuff into the fillets.

Stuff fillet; season and butter each side of the fillets and broil in oven 10 minutes on each side. Serve piping hot with drawn butter or garlic butter.
