Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine jumbo lump crab meat, mayonnaise, beaten egg, Dijon mustard (if using), Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning gently, folding in chopped chives.

Wet your hands, scoop a handful of the crab mixture, and shape it into golf-ball-sized balls, placing them on the baking sheet.

Drizzle melted butter generously over each crab bomb to add richness and color.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Allow to cool slightly before serving warm with lemon wedges and dipping sauces.
