  • Here is the easiest crab cake recipe with the fewest ingredients to make the best crab cakes. If you use only salt and pepper to season the crab cakes, then a little butter in the skillet is key to adding a bit of decadence to your crab cake dish. For a fancy crab cake dinner at a better price, I made the crab cakes in this recipe video using a mixture of pasteurized crab claw meat and canned crab meat.

    My mom was from the Cheseapeak bay area of Maryland and when some crab came that she had ordered she made crab cakes just the way you did. I remember the way the crab tasted (and that's all you tasted). Thanks for keeping the crab the star of the meal Chef.

    Chef Buck the reason I like your recipe for crab cakes is because of the salt pepper method I have nothing against old bay, however I believe that simpleness seems better for me and if I want a little heat I could do just that instead using old bay I think your way is a whole lots better. Thank you sir for such a great presentation of your crab cakes,and have a blessed day.❤❤❤😊

    Chef Buck making fancy crab cakes. 😋 I'm feeling jealous 😂
    The only time I've heard of anyone using less fancy crab as a filler for fancier crab.
    Maybe someday I'll make these. Until that day I'll go ahead and make some tuna cakes in a similar manner. Except with those I will use a bit of green onion and a touch of finely shredded carrot, and lemon. Cause canned tuna doesn't have that ultra delicious flavor that crab has so it needs help.
    Thanks for another great video. 👍👍

    • @ChefBuckRecipes
      @ChefBuckRecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      the canned crab was $4 and the Claw meat was $12, and mixing them together subtly bulks up the more expensive crab ...it's about as close as I get to investing

    Well if thats the crazy expensive crab from last weeks video I'm not surprised there aren't any additional ingredients being used. The whole budget went into the container of crab.
    Thats actually something I've never bought or tried cooking with. I'm going to give this a try and see how it turns out.
    Now where to apply for the loan. . . . .

    • @ChefBuckRecipes
      @ChefBuckRecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      of the refrigerated lumpy crabmeats available to us at the local grocery, the pasteurized Claw meat was the least expensive at around $13 and the fancy canned at $4...so the total cost with sides for dinner for 2 is around $20 total, which is a top-end price for a home cooked meal, I think...but it'd be $20 for each plate at a restaurant, so that makes it easier to swallow!

    @markgupton1313 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Make them the same way except I've always added a little bit of cracker or bread crumbs. Like your way better. Stand firm on no onion. Tends to over power crabmeat. Dill & fennel, a little goes a long way. Like the thought of using luxurious crabmeat as well.

    • @ChefBuckRecipes
      @ChefBuckRecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I like to mix the pricey with the less pricey...makes me feel like a financial genius. CG likes a little of the green onion tops chopped thin and added to the mix, and so do I mostly for the look, but it doesn't do much for the taste, so not a necessary ingredient...if I have it on hand, I'll almost always put fresh dill in any seafoody cake I make.

    But this was a really good recipe. It gave me a good idea. I am going to substitute the crabmeat with something else and try to make mock crabcakes. I will give a link to your video when I make mine. The fried noodles looked interesting too. I have sautéed my macaroni and cheese with vegetables on really low heat but I never had fried noodles before. I don't think I've ever seen you do a recipe on them either.

    • @ChefBuckRecipes
      @ChefBuckRecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      for fried noodles, I just take an el cheapo pack of ramen, make it according to package directions (buy slightly less done), then drain it and fried it in a skillet for a few minutes...the old el cheapo ramen switch-a-roo

    Great idea, CB & CG! No filler = Karnivore Krab Kakes! Not being a crab fan, I might try these with salmon. Or even some of that canned mackerel, since I really like fishy fish flavor.

    • @ChefBuckRecipes
      @ChefBuckRecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      salmon cakes are my favorite--sorta fancy, not too expensive, super versatile--I love them! Canned mackerel is too fishy for me for cakes, although I love it...I use canned mackerel for one of my favorite, easy stews with tomato, celery, onion and lemon...the tomato and lemon really cuts the fishiness, so maybe not as fishy as you'd prefer th-cam.com/video/nZSQs_5-Gkk/w-d-xo.html

      I think they all taste about the same really--which isn't very strong--although the claw crab meat is a bit more flavorful to my taste--the distinct difference is in the texture...the least appealing to me is the canned white crab meat, which is best suited for sauces and soups, I think
