as someone from maryland, i’m offended that there is no old bay
The real question is how long it took you to pick all that meat.
Where’s the old bay. As a Maryland resident I’m not gonna allow you to call these crab cakes
I was thinking you were a good cook until I saw this. Please please please never make crab cakes again.
Thank you,
Maryland.
These should be at least 5.50 minimum a piece considering all ingredients u need to make.
Two Different Crabs … Bag !
I just subscribed to your chanel, i like that you make everything from scratch whithout using canned food.
I could watch your videos all day long, bro.
You are a treasure 😹💜🤟🏾✨🔥
Save even more money by using faux crab.
Gieco sponsoring YouTubers…? Oki doki
Wheres the old bay?!!!!!
I put old bay on everything from crab to deviled eggs.
If the crab meat is good quality, baked/broiled always tastes better than fried.
It can be even cheaper if you catch your own crabs;)
too much yapping about price.. get to the dang recipe
Can I use fake crab ?
Who the hell makes crabcakes with dungeness crab and a freaking remoulade? If you need to serve any kind of sauce with crabcakes, then there is something wrong with the crabcake. We don't do that here in Maryland. And we only use Maryland Blue Crab!!!!
Not supposed to cook mayo
Panko should only be on the outside not mixed in .
As an English person I always laugh when Josh struggles with the name of Worcestershire sauce. 😂 He is not the only one, every US chef on YouTube does. I like the way he jokes about it.
Really, Huh Huh Huh, that ain't no real crabcake, or as you incorrectly state "cakes of crab" True crabcakes are expensive because there should be Maryland Crabmeat.. Anything else is bs. Kinda like the proverbial "wish sandwich"
B roll baby!!!
What music is that at the end?
how can this dude hold freshly cook food without getting burn
He talks too much. I stoped in the middle of video.
Can you use imatation crab do you have any recipe for this
I do them different. I like a potato-crab cake instead of these. Guess it is what you grow up with.
I take about a pound of boiled mashed potato and thoroughly mix in a 1/2 pound of crab plus 1 egg and seasoning. Then in a dish seeled well and in the fridge for 24 hours. The crab flavours everything.
Little butter and fry til brown both sides.
Can you do salmon cakes the same way? Asking for a friend 😂
2:46 It threw me off when we laughed at the same time
Can i use imitation crab
Btw this could be made into a decent short vid
6:41…
looks the same to me LOL
Ok. So for the cheapest cake, go to dollar tree and buy a couple cans of canned mackrel and show us what you can turn it into?!?!?!
Lol. I just bought a container of blue crab meat for $14.
I wish you could've used blue crabs, it's nice to see Marylanders getting recognition.
Just made crab cakes using this recipe. There’s room for improvement.
Blah Blah Blah… Recipe… Blah Blah Blah… Result… Blah Blah Blah… Opinion… Blah Blah Blah… and then Blah Blah Blah. Whew! 3 minutes of content and 7 minutes of Blah Blah Blah. YouTubers
I was missing crab cakes. Been to the South where they were the bomb. A few years removed, I went with the fresh pasteurized kind. The cost is stupid at $40/lb. The cakes came out perfect as did the remoulade. Great taste, but not a cost most folks would chose to spend. Maybe salmon Pattie’s a more reasonably priced side?
This might be a stupid question but I'm having a hard time googling it. I assume the fresh crab is broiled or steamed first and not raw? Its just not mentioned here or in any other recipe so I want to verify. They all just say "have this amount of crab meat".
NOW WAY JOSH GOT A CAR INSURANCE COMMERCIAL 💀💀💀
As a MD resident, Dungeness is a no-no and pasteurized crab is a last resort. FRESH PICKED blue crab, 2lbs lump and 1lb backfin. Also, crackers are a side, not a filling.
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I made this tonight and my daughter said, “it tastes sooo much better than any crab cakes I have had at restaurants before!”
Legit good stuff👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Hi Joshua, thank you for sharing this recipe. I like your sense of humor. I recently moved outside of the States and I miss crab cakes deeply. I look forward to making this recipe tonight.
Canned crab?
How you not use old bay baby?
I love these videos but where am I buying .03 cents in spices amd .25 cents in eggs.
Thanks for this super easy to follow recipe and guide
Making crab cakes without Old Bay is sacrilege.
