I never used to make crab cakes at home until I created this recipe. They're spiced just right, and the mustard-mayo sauce is the perfect accent. -Katie P. Sloan, Charlotte, North Carolina

I thought these crab cakes were just okay. They were a bit bland and didn't have much flavor.

These crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll try making them again with less cayenne pepper next time.

These were amazing! I made them for my family and they loved them. The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The flavor was perfect.

I've made these crab cakes several times now and they always turn out perfect. The recipe is easy to follow and the results are always delicious. I love that I can use fresh or frozen crab meat.

These crab cakes were a hit at my last dinner party! They were so easy to make and had a delicious, authentic Carolina flavor. My guests raved about them and asked for the recipe.
