Those crab cakes look good, Richie!! You’re lucky to have access to fresh meat. That plate is pretty close to what my last meal would be.

I use a similar recipe. The only difference is using ritz crackers instead of panko crumbs.

I’ve tried white bread, saltines and regular breadcrumbs before and I liked the ritz better...I’m gonna try panko next time.

I love blue crabs anyway I can get 'em. They are extremely popular here on the gulf coast.

Lookin good Richie.

Richie I've been on vacation in Georgia visiting my daughter the last week or so. I'm glad I didn't miss this one. Boy that looks really good. I haven't had a good crab cake since we traveled down to Delaware for my daughters little league softball regionals. We stopped somewhere on the way home and had a few.

Point for sure.

Sorry about that Richie, I should have been more clear. My daughter is 28 years old now. So I haven't had a good crab cake since about 1992. My brain is still fuzzy from the long drive.
