First time making crab cakes ever. I looked all over the internet and found this one-very easy and delicious. I used 1/2 cup bread crumbs because I did not have white bread, but still turned out well. Made 4 very large crab cakes-could have made 5 even. Definitely recommend!

This was my first time making crab cakes and it was a success! One of my cakes fell apart in the pan, but I'm sure that was my fault. : The other 3 cakes were perfectly intact and crusty - delicious!

Great! This recipe makes 5 large crab cakes, one per person, and they were full of flavor and very moist. I served them with Paula Deen's squash casserole and a green salad on the side. The crab cakes had a nice crust on the outside and very tender on the inside. This recipe is a keeper!

We made these crab cakes last night and they were delicious! Very professional looking and tasting. Served over baby salad greens with avocado and hearts of palm and black olives, a little yogurt, chive and dijon dressing, with a loaf of homemade crusty buttermilk bread- Yummy Spring dinner!!!

We never used bread crumbs but used UNSEASONED cubes of decrusted white bread. With the egg and wet ingredients it keeps the patty together while frying but the blandness of the bread doesn't overpower the taste of the crab. Which is what you want. Placing the mixture into the refridgerator to chill helps the wet ingredients to coagulate and keep the cakes from falling apart while frying. Old Bay seasoning is good but we consistently used J.O.'s Crab Cake seasoning out of Baltimore. Not to say that one is better than the other but that is what we used. This recipe is a keeper and TRUE Maryland Crab Cake recipe. Pennsylvania hijacked it. This is a great Crab Cake recipe, been doing it for years except with J.O. spice and it's a great recipe. You won't believe the difference between this recipe and the one's with "bread-crumbs."
