This is a variation on the more well known dish Lobster Newburg, also spelled Lobster Newberg, only using crab as the main ingredient rather than lobster.
The dish is otherwise very similar to that first invented by Ben Wenberg and later added to Delmonico's Restaurant in New York, which had its name change following an argument between the restaurant and Newberg.
Like Lobster Newburg, Crab Meat Newburg is a seafood dish that uses crab as the base and is cooked in a sauce made from cream, cognac, eggs, sherry, butter and Cayenne pepper. The dish is also similar to Lobster Thermidor. The sauce, as can be inferred from the list of ingredients, is quite a rich one.
