@@TheFishLocker Where do we order from, the whole world *NEEDS* the Spargo Fish Cookbook! 🤍 Blitzed cream crackers in a crab cake, who'd have thunk it? Man's a GENIUS! 👨🍳👨🎓
We do prefer to do everything from scratch but we also occasionally show that these dishes can also be created from simple ingredients you can’t get from your local market.
John, I almost hate this channel, your lobster / crab trapping really gets to me ! Yet alone the cooking. I’ve told you in the past how hard it is for me to watch you gather these lovely sea creatures. Just love it , and your channel with your lovely guests. Thank you all.👍🇺🇸✌🏻🙏🏽😎
Any video with Jim is always a pleasure to watch. The fact he surprised himself is a testament to the wealth of knowledge he has. I'd love to spend a day with him in the kitchen, just soaking up his positive juju! Another fine job my brother! Love home to you Jim and the rest of the family.
I just want to chill with Jim near a nice fire place with a glass of whiskey talking about life, food, and cooking. Jim is the man. Love spargo kitchen.
I'd be lying if I said I'm not jealous of you having Jim's amazing cooking done for you, it looked absolutely fantastic. That monster crab went to good use. Great video, and good to see Jim back in the kitchen making amazing food.
That crab was given the royal treatment. It's lovely to see the process through and through. The catch was respected, 100% utilized, and brought joy to a community.
Jim is as good a chef as you are at fishing, ive never been one for crab but ive got to give this a go, he really knows how to make you hungry with the stuff he comes up with, what a legend, thank you to you both for sharing this with us all, superb stuff
Mr Spargo and his style of cooking,use of other ingredients and use of spices is very educational and inspiring…always love watching him cook…much respect
It was a real treat watching Jim "The Man" in the Orange Apron do his Majic on that Monster Crab. I also loved hearing Jim speak Japanese, Jim is indeed the Real Deal, "God Bless Him!" Thank You
Yer totally agree with all the comments, videos with Jim just make your videos more special, and you 2 go so well in the kitchen together , make you keep on making videos with Jim he seems so happy doing them too , absolutely 10 out 10 video well done to both of you loved watching it
6:23 It's nice to see Jim have a humanising moment. He cooks like an absolute god and so have assumed he was until that moment. Love him! (And you John, of course!)
Love watching and listening to Jim…. TH-cam’s very own Granda! The Booby Robson of Football, The David Attenborough of nature, The Peter Allis of golf…. He’s one of them sorts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great stuff Jim, you’re a star ⭐️
Love, love, love this. I was hoping Jim would come into play when I saw that monster come out of the pot a few days. I am watching this just before dinner and am so disappointed I'm having peppers and onions with sausage instead of amazing crab cakes. As always, thanks for doing this. Please tell Jim thanks as well.
Thanks John & Jim, amazing crab cakes & dip, I love watching you both in the kitchen preparing the dish & then eagerly diving in to what Jim has made, Delish! 😃
Another great cook up @Spargos kitchen. Keep up all the great content J.L and all the best of health and well being to you and your family. Gary and Sheree.
And my mouth is watering! Jim you just keep that schooling going. Everything looked absolutely delicious! John, thank you for taking us to the kitchen.
You and Jim videos. ❤️What's not to enjoy.😄 You both have so much knowledge and experience of your individual passions, which you both so freely share.🧑🎓🧑🎓👏👏 Thank you both so much.👍 Take care and stay safe.😷
As Jim said " every day is a school day" and i wish my school dinners were as good as those crab cakes 🦀😅 Jim done that crab proud and theres enough for at least 2 more meals . Makes me happy your hard work at sea pays off John Take care Jim and John Jason
Jim is a Gem!! The glow in BOTH of your eyes, as you create amazing meals and anticipate the first bite and all of the flavours! That's living!! I need to get some crabs and make some cakes and have all of my friends over to eat!! Nothing like good food and good company! Thanks Jim and John...for welcoming us into your kitchen to learn how to make some wonderful eats!! Dig, DmGrk
Hi John, after watching you and Jim I’m not only envious but hungry for crab cakes,what a great vlog especially with what you do with that huge crab,”cheers John,Jim.”👍🏻🦀😋🍺🍺
Yet another fantastic cookery lesson and recipe from the Masterchef Jim. The crab and the mix of ingredients used to make the crab cakes look like they made a lush tasting snack. Loved the idea of adding cream crackers to give a little extra crunch
The amount of delicious meat that comes from a crab is literally ASTOUNDING! The two I foraged a couple of weeks back, using lessons learned directly from The Fish Locker TH-cam channel, seriously amazed me. I found three legal browns, two cocks, one hen, but again, following The Fish Locker's teachings, put the hen back to sustain the population! Then, after leaving, I was kicking myself, thinking no way would two crabs feed a family of four. We had ample meat, both white and brown, and all ate our fill. Thank you to the two crabs, for their sacrifice, and, thank you to The Fish Locker, for sharing the passion, expertise, and techniques, to safely forage fresh food to share with my family! The mackerel and rock samphire of a week later was one helluva beautiful meal too!!! Living/Loving the Cornish dream. 🤍
What about dogfish, instead of ling, as a substitute for crab? (A shellfish allergy. You must have done something REALLY bad in a previous life to be born with such a cruel allergy!!!) Defo feel the lovely creamy texture of dogfish, and the great taste, is REALLY overlooked! I used to LOVE battered flake/rock salmon and chips, but you just don't see it in chippies any more. 🥺
@@TheFishLocker So, if I catch 'em, Jim'll cook 'em, that's _precisely_ what you're saying, right? 😜 I've actually never even tried ling, done barely any reef/wreck boat fishing, so never had the chance to catch/eat them.
Brilliant video and with none of the BS adverts pushing tat the creator would never use in reality. Well done John, your channel has come on leaps and bounds since you first started.
Very interesting John! The size of that crab was amazing!! Great recipe thanks Jim! Love making my own crab and fish cakes!! Licking my lips by the end of the video haha! All the best Graham ❤❤🦀🦀🦀
We call the "brown meat" mustard here in Maryland for our blue crabs since it typically turns bright yellow when we steam them. Thanks for showing folks where their food comes from. Great channel! Cheers from the US!
Oh yes! I’m so glad I got to see that giant cooked up! I absolutely adore this channel, such a nice escape. Such a lovely family, great food, and there’s also an educational element to your videos as well! I cannot express the joy I get from watching! ❤
And they’ve done it again 😂 I love all shell fish crab is nearly at the top of my list …..John how did you not try the meat whilst you was getting it out the shell ….your a better man than me 😂😂
They look really good! I love the catch and cook videos. It's nice to see the brown meat being used as well. I'd like to see Jim make the mackerel fishcakes too if the recipe is different enough to the crab cake to be worth your time making a video of it.
Always love these collaborations! I'll have to try making these soon. Knives are a great thing to bring back from Japan, I'm glad you had a good trip Jim. Makes me long to go back - I miss the food! But no other crab can compare to our brown crabs.
Hi John, great video, Jim done a great job on the Crab-cakes, another enjoyable watch. Would have liked to have tried them. 🙃. All the best mate. 🍻. Mark.
Ah yes, this was the video you told me to wait for! You mentioned it was the biggest you've caught on the channel...you've caught bigger before? I need to one day taste a meal from Jim, my mouth waters every time. Konnichiwa, Jim! Thank you as always for sharing, John. Tight lines and full pots!
Great to be in the kitchen once again John , interesting to hear of the use of monkfish for scampi ! They must of tasted great! Appreciate both of your efforts 👍🏼👍🏼
Yes’’’ Jim’s kitchen I love this part …. Really I can’t get enough of his cooking and great food love this guy , say hi to him from the pacific north west USA PNW 👍👍👍👍he’s the 💣
Wow wow 😊 they looked amazing. Home cooking certainty is the way to go. The shops couldn’t get them like that. Nice one Jim and that crab was a monster 😊
Fantastic! I was hoping that titan of a crab would make its way to Jim or Hannah's pots n pans. I've never thought of using crackers in a crab/fish cake before, cracker of an idea...🤦🤣👍
Beach fishcakes will be worth a trial particularly when you don't find much of anything in particular, so made from muscles, cockles, razor clams, scallops etc. A muscle sandwich with a spot of salad cream I'd also recommend.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant .the rapour between you two chaps is a real treat it's easy to see you are great friends , two very knowledgeable people with the same passion for fresh healthy foods. Lets have some more please.
Have you ever tried Old Bay seasoning? I love the stuff. Sprinkle it onto the crab before you dip it in butter or drizzle on some vinegar and then eat it. Mmmmm!!! Also great on shrimp and even fries (chips)!
Man, if Jim hasn't already it would be absolutely amazing if he made a cookbook for all his amazing recipies
If we can find the time we will get pen to paper. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker that would certainly be one on my got to get list!
@@TheFishLocker Where do we order from, the whole world *NEEDS* the Spargo Fish Cookbook! 🤍
Blitzed cream crackers in a crab cake, who'd have thunk it? Man's a GENIUS! 👨🍳👨🎓
I second that!
Used to coat Crab cakes in smashed Mini-Cheddars. Great stuff John, Jim and the Crew. 👍
Absolutely love when Jim is in your videos. He is definitely a joy!
He surely is. 💙
The bag over the fire alarm made me laugh. 😅 Brilliant video Jim and John. Looking forward to the monkfish one.
Jim is a national treasure.
From catch to cook,is simply a work of art.
Thank you.
Jim is simply wonderful isn’t he.
Not a national treasure though,after Attenborough I’d have Stephen Fry next😁
Fresh roasted peppers and home made mayo and tartare sauce will make that crab a king of a meal as it deserves

When I saw that crab, I knew it would end up at Spargo’s ! 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

@@TheFishLocker Ha, potential for a Fishlocker After Dark side account? :D
I was hoping that you would give that huge crab to Jim for a cook-up! 😋
We had to!! 🦀👍🏻
My partner showed me this video after talking about The Fish Locker for weeks and now I want a plush of Jim, he’s so sweet and melts my heart ❤
The man cooks understandable and easy, no pressure and hectic. Bring him more to cook and we are happy. Wel done.
The Fisherman and the Chef--A very winning combination!👍👍
You got that right!
These videos are the best way to unwind after a long day on the construction site. Thanks, fellas!
I am glad we could help. 👍🏻

What a crab….Jim had a great idea in making crab cakes…. He is amazing with his recipes. Hope you enjoyed them.
Probably not what you intended but that's one of the best KISS crab cleaning videos I've seen.
You don’t need to make things complicated. I show it in more detail on the other crab videos. 👍🏻
As Jim said " every day is a school day" and i wish my school dinners were as good as those crab cakes 🦀😅

Crab hauling and coastal foraging with some clean and cook. Love this stuff!
So do we. 😊🦀
I laughed when John said he wasn't a big fan of Coriander and Jim proceeds to throw a whole bunch in the mix lol.
😳
I love watching Jim cook 😀
That was so mouth watering we making plans for another trip to the coast to support the local fisherman and get some crabs yummee crack on
I like your plan. 👍🏻🦀

Fascinating, I've been eating crabs my whole life and never heard of the brown meat. We just threw the whole top away. That meal looked delicious!
Saw you haul in that monster the other day, thought to myself "Hope he cooks that with Jim.." and here we are! Great content mate, thanks once again
We just had to!!
