CRAB CAKES with Sriracha Tartar Sauce

In this video I dive into the five things it takes to make great crab cakes. Why? Because most of the crab cakes we've ever had are pasty, have no discernible texture, and are more filler than crab. My recipe makes crab cakes into a craveable food that pays respect to one of the most delicious sea meats. Sea meat? It's fine. It's a thing.

Ok, discovered your channel about a week ago and have watched a bunch of your videos. I was wondering why this channel isn't HUGE, because the quality of the videos are great, solid recipes, and humorous. Now I realize you just kicked off about 10 months ago. Homey your channel is going to be big. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for watching. I hope you're right. Cheers!

@stinkdyr301 3 года назад

You are so right, soooo right. Ask yourself...Would I rather watch Weedi Sardini bake excellent bread and create tasty crab cakes? Or, would I rather watch 2 pasty fat Pillsbury Dough ladies on PBS stuff their faces with grilled cheese sammiches? I think we know the answer. :-)

Made these tonight for Mother’s Day for my wonderful wife. Small thing I did different was I put the cup directly on the parchment & tapped it to get the cakes out instead of smacking them into my hand. Mine came out a bit more wet than Bri’s & this helped me keep them together more easily!

That 1-pound can of Blue Star lump crab is now $91. Crazy price! We lived on the Delmarva peninsula for 17 years and miss the Maryland crab cakes. Your recipe is the closest I have found to replicating a true MD crab cake. If only I could get my hands on true lump crab. (We live in Wisconsin now and have to be happy with Chicken of the Sea.)

My wife LOVES crab cakes. She needed a special treat, pick me up meal and I made these. I'm a capable cook and generally look for concepts and don't follow recipes.

Nice👍. I consider myself a really good cook and should have been a chef wish I would have but you're very relatable and that's what makes you attractive for a lack of better words as a RU-vid person showing us like a regular person how to cook these meals it's great I love it thank you

I made these tonight with jumbo lump crab…these were the closest I’ve ever had to Eddie V’s crab cakes (a prime seafood restaurant) and that is high praise. Your instructions were easy to follow and I even made your remoulade, although I cheated and had a bagged herb salad. I halved your recipe but managed to make 4 smaller crab cakes; 2 each for hubby and me. This is now being added to our rotation. Thank you for the delicious recipe and best crab cakes I’ve ever had.

It's a rewatch binge day for me. Made a spin off of your weeknight chowder the other night and it's getting super tasty. I've been adjusting and trying out different things. I'm feeling like meat loaf tonight and I'm excited to see how the glaze turns out. My wife usually just uses worchestershire sauce on the outside and I'm stuck needing to put ketchup on afterwards. Living near the Chesapeake bay, there is no shortage of good crab cakes but damn did this one make me hungry and it's only like 9am.

Our cakes are very similar in construction and recipe. Mine has mayo Dijon panko a d chives and lemon zest/juice. Mix the mix as you later state and fold crab in and walk away, nice video buddy

@jennifertennant4837 3 года назад

This is best crab cake I have ever had!! Mixed these up for an NYE app last night in no time, so delicious!! A cool and easy alternative sauce: 1 fresh mango, 1 TBSP neutral oil, 2 TSP sambal oelek - blend and season lightly with salt and pepper If you don’t have a fresh mango, good quality defrosted frozen mango will work just as good!

@BrianLagerstrom 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing! This sounds awesome.

@betageek66 Год назад

I'm from Maryland and this is pretty much exactly how I make crabcakes. If you can get fresh crab it makes a world of difference but its super expensive. If buy canned, always go for the best one you can find...often there are different grades in the cold case. Cheaping out and getting a lesser grade is pennywise and pound foolish since crab makes up 95% of the final product. Also, using a cast iron skillet here is never a bad thing. :)

@entrepreneursfinest 2 года назад

Pretty much spot on. The only thing off is the lack of really fresh crab. It's hard to get that just anywhere so I understand, but NO crab cake from a can will be even 10% (maybe not 5%) as good as fresh crab in a crab cake. Sad but true as the sky is blue.

Most restaurants in Maryland the crabcakes are 90% crab and 10% fillers. But, in other states, it’s like 30% crab in 70% filters. Even at the high-end restaurants.

@jeffcore7631 3 года назад

That’s one beautiful crab cake, never thought of finishing in the oven, I get yelled at for fish smell, yet the crab tastes like the ocean (JM Clayton crab), bummed that Whole Foods stopped selling it so had to buy directly, fortunately the pasteurization allows to keeping cans for a while.

@BrianLagerstrom 3 года назад

Finding crab meat might be the hardest part of this recipe. I go to my local fish monger and get nice jumbo lump for 22 bucks a can.

@regalbeagle4306 3 года назад

Garlic press yields more of the healthful compounds from the garlic especially in raw preparations like your tartar sauce or a salad dressing.

@BrianLagerstrom 3 года назад

Thanks for the tip!

@MichaelAlthauser 3 года назад

If there's anything I'd wanna add, it's that you should be checking those cans for pieces of crab shell. Sometimes you still find little shards in there, and those aren't something you ever wanna bite into.

@thomasdidymus1855 2 года назад

hey buddy any binder u can suggest other than mayo? not a fan - ps great videos

@nogisomee 3 года назад

Really enjoyed these. My sriracha is very hot (the one with the rooster) so I added a scant tsp and it was plenty. The sauce is amazing but so flavorful it can overpower the mild crab, so you don't need much. I would say the sauce is enough for 12 cakes (the recipe makes 6). With so much going on flavorwise, I didn't find the salad added much as it couldn't cut through.

@BrianLagerstrom 3 года назад
