Time 25m

Yield 4 large crab cakes or 6 smaller crab cakes

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 stick sweet, unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound lump crabmeat
1 lemon, juiced
3/4 sour cream
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup ketchup
1 cup chili sauce
1/4 cup prepared horseradish, strained and liquid removed
1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommend: Tabasco)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the bread crumbs, salt, crab boil seasoning, and pepper and stir with a wooden spoon until the butter is fully incorporated. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  • Put the crabmeat in a large bowl, and pick through to remove all the shells. Add the lemon juice and toss. Mix in the sour cream, egg, flour, parsley, mustard, and prepared bread crumb mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Form the crab mixture into 6 patties, approximately 2 1/4-ounces each. Coat each patty in flour and shake off excess.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the crab cakes and cook until evenly browned, about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with the Oyster House Cocktail sauce on the side.
  • Mix all the ingredients together and store in an airtight container until ready to use.

These crab cakes were a disaster! They fell apart in the pan and were completely tasteless. I won't be making them again.

I've made crab cakes before, but this recipe is by far the best. The crab cakes were perfectly cooked and the cocktail sauce was the perfect complement.

The crab cakes were delicious! I loved the crispy coating and the tender, flavorful crab meat. The cocktail sauce was also very good.

These crab cakes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

Meh. The crab cakes were okay, but I've had better. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the crab cakes turned out perfectly. They were golden brown on the outside and moist and flavorful on the inside. Definitely a keeper!

Not bad! The crab cakes were simple to make and had a nice flavor. I served them with tartar sauce instead of cocktail sauce and they were still delicious.

These crab cakes were a delightful treat! The combination of the crab meat, bread crumbs, and spices was perfect. I also loved the crispy exterior and the tender, juicy interior.

The crab cakes were good, but the cocktail sauce was a bit too spicy for me. Next time, I'll try making a milder version.

These crab cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I should have added more mayonnaise.
