CRAB CAKE PO' BOYS
Steps:
- Split rolls in half lengthwise leaving a hinge along 1 side. Hollow out center of the top and the bottom of each roll. Place bread crumbs and herb mixture in a blender and whir to make fine crumbs. Pour into a bowl. You should have about 1 cup of crumbs. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, add the crabmeat and 1 cup Remoulade Sauce. Stir gently to combine. Add the bread crumb mixture and lightly toss until just combined. Over mixing will cause the crab cakes to become gummy. Form 12 crab cakes approximately 2 1/2 inches diameter. Pour corn muffin mix onto a plate or shallow dish (a pie plate works well). Carefully coat crab cakes in the corn muffin mix and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. When the oil is hot, fry the crab cakes in batches until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a sheet pan. Bake crab cakes in the preheated oven for 8 to10 minutes.
- Serve crab cakes on hollowed out French roll with lettuce, tomato, and additional Remoulade Sauce.
- In a small bowl, mash the capers with a fork. Add tartar sauce, Cajun seasoning, horseradish, and hot pepper sauce and combine completely. If you have the time, let chill in the refrigerator, covered, for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld.

Steps:
- Make mustard mayonnaise:
- In a bowl whisk together mayonnaise ingredients and reserve.
- Make crab burgers:
- In a small heavy skillet cook onion and bell pepper in butter over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. In a bowl stir together onion mixture, crab meat, scallion greens, mayonnaise, egg, 1 tablespoon bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and salt to taste.
- Put remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs in a small bowl and put a piece of plastic wrap on a work surface. Form one fourth crab mixture into a 3-inch patty (it will be soft) and coat with bread crumbs, transferring to plastic wrap. Make 3 more patties in same manner with remaining crab mixture and bread crumbs.
- In a 10-inch heavy deep skillet heat 1/4 inch oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry patties until golden and cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes on each side, transferring to paper towels to drain.
- Spread bread with reserved mustard mayonnaise and sandwich crab burgers and lettuce between bread.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Fresh crab meat, a flavorful breadcrumb mixture, and a crispy coating make all the difference in a great crab burger.
- Don't overmix the crab mixture. Overmixing can make the burgers tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Form the burgers gently. Handle the crab mixture gently to avoid breaking up the crab meat. Form the burgers into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick.
- Coat the burgers in breadcrumbs. Coating the burgers in breadcrumbs helps them to stay together and gives them a crispy crust.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat. Cooking the burgers over medium heat helps to prevent them from burning on the outside while remaining raw on the inside.
- Serve the burgers on toasted buns. Toasted buns help to absorb the juices from the burgers and add a bit of crunch.
- Top the burgers with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for crab burgers include lettuce, tomato, onion, avocado, and tartar sauce.
Conclusion:
Crab burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. With a few simple tips, you can make crab burgers that are crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. Serve the burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
