"These crab cakes are rich and moist with lots of meat and very little filling. Typical of finer restaurants!"

This was a good basic recipe. I made a few changed/additions. Like other users, halved the mayo and added 2 eggs. Used a bit more crab meat, as I like mine full of crab. 1/2 saltines, 1/2 bread crumbs. about 1/3 cup dried parsley, some lemon juice, some worchestershire, and definitely more old bay (I'm from MD). I couldn't bring myself to broil these, I've always pan fried, so I used 1 Tbsp butter and a few Tbsp Vegetable oil on med/high heat. These are filling, so I served on toasted buns with tomatoes and a wonderful veggie medley on the side. Thanks for the recipe!

These were really great! They made me homesick for Baltimore. Too salty for me so I replaced the crackers with bread crumbs and added a bit more Old Bay instead. I think next time I'll try unsalted crackers. I like the cracker consistancy and a strong Old Bay flavor but saltines were too much. Thanks!

I made this for my wife and she loved it. We gave some to our neighbors who also liked it and now want the recipe. It tastes great and is easy to make. Since the recipe doesn't ask for frying, clean up is easy and the house didn't have an oily smell. I used a 1/4 measuring cup to help shape the cakes. Just pat down with your palm to make the cakes a little flatter but wider.

I have made this recipe more times than I can count. I use 1 cup breadcrumbs instead of the saltine crackers and made the cakes considerably smaller (about 2 inches in diameter - I get about 20 cakes) and broiled them 5-7 minutes each side. Great as appetizers. My friends always request them!

I love crab cakes and now my own crab cakes are my favorite. I can never stick to a recipe, so I added to this recipe, but it was great. I used bread crumbs and corn meal instead of saltines, I added green onions and some other spices, but it was great! I served it with "Trader Joe's" tartar sauce and everyone flips over them!!

these crab cakes were really good and im excited about them! ill definitely be making them again. i changed the recipe slightly: used 2 eggs and 1/2 cup mayo instead of a whole cup. added green onions and chopped red pepper. extra old bay seasoning multi-grain club crackers instead of saltines. they were a little too wet when i added the amount of crackers called for, so i added some extra. also used canned lump crab meat which was fine. they stuck together GREAT and made perfect patties. they tasted perfect. im a big fan of the broiling technique instead of frying, less cleanup and much easier. THANK YOU!

These were awesome! I used Club crackers instead of saltines. The butter flavor really added to the recipe. I chopped the onion and celery super fine and used just a little less onion than 1/4c. I was skeptical about broiling them because I have always pan fried my crabcakes, but WOW! They were as good if not better that pan fried. It took about 5-6 min per side under the broiler. I used whole lump crab on sale 2lb for $16. I will be making these this way from now on. As a topper sauce I took one part mayo, one part Di'jon mustard and a splash of Worstershire sauce and mixed it and placed a dollop on top. EXCELLENT!

My fiance floats into the kitchen, cartoon-style, when he smells these! I have made them many times, and they always come out GREAT! I have even used canned crab (three small cans, drained) instead of fresh, and they come out fine! Usually, I make them with half Saltine crumbs, half breadcrumbs, and lite mayo. I also put a little fresh parsley in if I have it. Always delish! Thanks!

My husband's already asking for more! He loved these crab cakes as well as my in-laws. I pretty much followed the recipe, except I added a bit more Old Bay Seasoning and used Club Crackers instead. Delicious! I think the Club Crackers are less salty than regular saltines, and add a nice little flavor to the crab cakes. This recipe is a definite "keeper".

Fabulous - and so easy to make! My friends are demanding more and begging for the recipe. I used Phillips canned crab from Costco and served them with a simple avacado/mango/lime juice salsa. I left out the celery and prepared them the night before w/out any problems. 1 batch makes 6 cakes.
