Shrimp, Corn & Crab Bisque image

One of the attorney's in our building makes this every year for the building Christmas party. Within an hour, the whole GIGANTIC batch that she makes is gone. She was nice enough to hand the recipe out this year and I'm posting so as NOT to lose it. It is THE BEST Shrimp, Corn & Crab Bisque that I have ever eaten. She brings it to the party in her crock pot to keep it warm. The added flavor comes from the shrimp stock so make sure you follow that direction closely.

This bisque was a disaster. The broth was curdled and the shrimp, corn, and crab were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I was disappointed with this bisque. The broth was bland and the shrimp, corn, and crab were overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

This bisque was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The flavors were well-balanced and the texture was creamy and smooth. I would recommend using less heavy cream next time.

I've tried many shrimp corn crab bisque recipes, but this one is by far the best. The combination of shrimp, corn, and crab is perfect, and the broth is creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again!

This shrimp corn crab bisque was a hit with my family! The creamy broth was rich and flavorful, and the shrimp, corn, and crab were cooked perfectly. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter night.
