GoRilla Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 So i had a delicous leftover Crabcake for lunch today, and it got me thinking: "I wonder what the LGT crowd thinks about crabcakes?' So I know there are many different types: Maryland (obviously the best), New England/Boston, and Southern. So whats your favorite, and if you have any great reciepes, share em!

coxx Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I can attest to maryland crabcakes & crab in general being extremely delicious. I used to head to b-more all the time "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a!

I have...what im saying is that calling a style better is a hard comment to defend. I have been to MD and had your crab; its good but if we were talking specific places to eat you would have a better argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fweasel Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I love crab cakes. Don't know enough about them to differentiate between styles though. I've had Maryland's version and can't say they were any more or less tasty than others I've taken down. ignore him, he'll go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Break Beat Zen Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I have lived on both coast and all over the states(Army) and Maryland definetly does not have the best crab cakes. The best crab and crab cakes i have had were on the west coast and made with dungeness crab. That's just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been to MD and had your crab; its good but if we were talking specific places to eat you would have a better argument. I actually wasnt arguing anything. So go to regular OT if you want an argument. I just wanted to hear some opinions of what types of crab and crab cakes you guys like. Hopefully get some good recipes, so I can broaden my crab cake horizons! Maryland's Suby friendly Realtor.

Break Beat Zen Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 You should be able to find it in MD but it wont be the same as getting it fresh. Dungeness crab are fat and have thicker legs as opposed to most crabs, great flavor too. http://www.homebythesea.com/Images/DungenessCrab.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc0032 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Maryland (obviously the best), I actually wasnt arguing anything. I didnt say arguing I said argument to defend. You made a statment that is false; therefor you would defend that statment in an argument I dont like to eat crabcakes out becuse everyone thinks there are the best and 9/10 times im disappointed In for recipes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philadelphias Worst Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Kinda of topic, but when i comes to crabs anymore--- I prefer to just buy about 4lbs of king crab legs frozen from a fresh seafood place close-by and throw them on a grill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs753 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Chesapeake Bay crab is king.That's assuming you know the difference from Blue Crab and cheap Asiatic crab from a can.Which is what you get at about 75% of all the restaurants.Probably just as well...since I think there should be a 5 year moratorium on commercial crab fishing in the Chesapeake ,regardless of the fact the my Father,Uncle and about 4 generations of my family have been "Crabbers".Not much left to catch in the Bay anymore.
