    Excellent recipe. It's quite similar to Phillips crab cakes in my opinion. I've been making this recipe for a few years now and will for many more years to come.

    I'm from the capital city of crabcakes , but I have not made your specific recipes. I feel there are a few flaws in your recipe which will be difficult for first-timers. Item 1, 2 # of crab meat is NOT 4 shaped patties. The yield says 8 pcs. but the directions say form 4. Item 2, I don't think I've ever met ANYONE who puts cocktail sauce on crabcakes. A flavored butter sauce, remoulade, even some fresh form of tartar sauce, but cocktail sauce no matter how good is too intense for this preparation, Your cklt sauce would be wonderful on fresh oysters (as in an oyster roast ot even on full-flavored shrimp (good luck finding that if you don't have a shrimper pal Also, as much as I adore fresh basil I would not put that in the body of the crabcake. Possibly in the butter sauce. This is NOT a Lowcountry cook's recipe but still has "good bones."

    This was my first time ever doing a crab cake. the idea was spur on the moment. I had lump crab meat for a recipe and a friend was over. He absolutely loved the crab cake. Quick and simple meal. I love foodnetwork.com.

    Really enjoyed the cakes, thought a little red or green pepper would add a little taste.

    My husband & I made these crab cakes together on Christmas Eve. We had a great time doing it together and they were very tasty. This recipe is what my family calls a "keeper".

    This was the first crab cake receipe I have tried on this site, and did so because I generally enjoy Old Bay seasoning with seafood. I did like this receipe a great deal, however, I made half the receipe and reduced down the ingredients. If the the receipe as given is made, ane one divids it into four segments as indicated, the cakes will be the size of pancakes. Using the 1lb of crabmeat receipe, I made four VERY healthy size cakes. I will also substitute dill for the basil the next time I make this, as I believe it will work more cohesively with the receipe.
