    I process my blue crabs with the crab master II, then freeze the fresh meat for days like today. Crab cakes take on a much better flavor when using fresh meat.
    After trying out several recipes, I've settled in this one. I do cut back a little on the Old Bay, and add just 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper.

    I'm a transplanted Marylander....this is the only way to make a crab cake. After you patty them put 'em in the Fridge to firm up so they won't break apart while frying!

    Look at those beauties sittin' in the pan -- I think they're saying 'Colleeeeen! Colleeeeeeen!' (that's me) :)

    I like there's not tons of this and that in this recipe -- Love the crab!

    Hey Lam, I agree with wolf. Can't go wrong with old bay. I like the simplicity of this recipe. Really lets the crab flavor come thru. I must try this one. Jim
