PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 400*. 

1. In a large bowl combine the Ritz, Saltines, white onion, bacon & drippings, mushrooms, and cherrystone meat.  Stir together. The mixture should resemble the consistency of oatmeal cookie dough. It should hold together but not be soupy.
2. Use a spoon to pack the mixture into a cherry stone half-shell and create a generous dome serving.
3. Bake for about 20 minutes on a foil-lined baking sheet or until the top is golden brown.  
4. Serve hot or individually wrap in foil and freeze until you are ready to enjoy.
