Crab Cake #2 (Imitation Crab & Lobster)



For those who don’t know, this stuff is generally made from Pollock.
I never liked playing the little game of making little patties & trying to keep them together, while preparing them & cooking them.
So 5 years ago, I decided to make a whole tray of Cake, and after it’s done, just cut it to the size I like.
So that’s what we have here.

BTW: Since I did one of these about 5 years ago, this time I followed the Step by Step I made back then, and it still works Great!! Give it a Try!

Ingredients:
1 LB Crab Meat
1 Egg
2 TBS Mayo (Miracle Whip)
1 TBS Yellow Mustard
1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning
1/3 Cup of Crushed “Cheez-its”
3 TBS Butter

Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, combine & mix all ingredients except Crab Meat & Butter. Fold in Crab Meat. Transfer to foil pan & spread evenly in pan. Melt and spoon Butter on surface, and place in 375° oven until Golden Brown, and at least 165° IT (about 25 to 30 minutes).

I like to cut into 6 servings.

Thanks for looking,

Bear

Looks great!

I literally just walked in the door from the fish market with a container of crab meat.I'm still working on Jane to give up her crab cake recipe!
 
Looks incredible John. Simple enough for me to try. Great job.
 
The single pan is a great way to do them . I've only had crab cakes one time . Never made them . I'll have to give it a go .
 
That's a great looking pan size crab cake John.

Great idea! I'm going to give it a shot.

Looks great Bear, I could definitely take a couple slices of that! Nice job!
 
Looks great and I LOVE the idea of just doing a sheet of it like that!

Thank You Norm!!
I love these things, but I never get around to making them, but once every few years. That's gotta change!!
And Thanks for the Like.

Thank You Rich!!
This way tastes the same as individual patties, but so much easier to make this way!!

My kind of crab (imitation) cake, awesome post Bear!
Thank You Cliff!!
In some ways I like the Imitation more than the real thing!!
And I don't mean only the price.
And Thanks for the Like.

Looks good Bear but I'm hoping for some Chesapeake Blue Crabs to make some real crab cakes.
