BEST EVER Crab Cakes: Restaurant Style

My favorite way to make #crabcakes ! Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
CRAB CAKE RECIPE:
2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper
1/4 cup Finely Diced Celery [from one stalk]
3 tablespoons Finely Chopped Fresh Parsley
2 large eggs
1 pound Lump Crab Meat [real crab]
1/2 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
canola, veg, grapeseed, or avocado oil, for cooking
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, Old Bay, salt, celery, and parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. With a rubber spatula, add in large eggs and crab meat gently (check the meat for any hard cartilage) and Panko breadcrumbs. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. [Don't mix with fork or it will shred crab meat apart]. Shape crab cakes (with ice cream scoop or measuring cup of even size) and place on lined baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes-1 hour.
In a large nonstick pan, heat oil to medium-high heat. Place the crab cakes in skillet and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve with remoulade, tartar sauce, or fresh lemon juice. or a squeeze of lemon.

Tried this recipe last night, the crab cakes were excellent. When I tested for flavor before adding eggs (great tip) I wanted a little more heat and added some sriracha sauce. I agree with your Old Bay comment. Thank you for posting Gabrielle.

[@colleenpine2187]

Beautiful presentation

[@tixximmi]

Looks really good. My only change would be to add some finely minced green onion. And instead of Canadian Bacon on my Eggs Benedict, Those crab cakes with some Hollandaise sounds fine to me. (on a homemade chewy biscuit.

[@GabrielleMcBay]

yes green onion definitely works too!

[@Valentinathevamp]

You did that👏🏾🤤!

[@GabrielleMcBay]

thanks Jamie!

[@jeffmaltby6185]

Cannot for the life of me find the recipe for Lone Star's Remoulade sauce . Worked at the LBV location in Florida in 2000 and prep cook kept it a secret from everyone , so damn good dipping fries into a ramekin of hidden while working the line.

[@GabrielleMcBay]

oh wow-sounds incredible. Sounds like you've got some good memories too.

[@pearlbubbles6885]

Yummy

[@CocosTube]

These looks bomb I love it .. you’re so good

[@GabrielleMcBay]

thank you!

[@IAmHisBeloved5]

Thank for the recipe! May you make a video of the oven scrambled eggs, please?

[@GabrielleMcBay]

sure! =)

[@IAmHisBeloved5]

Gabrielle McBay thank you! One more thing, may you make a video of lunch ideas for those who work jobs such as construction and don’t have access to microwave but don’t want to eat out everyday?

[@dorisjames3170]

I know you ... the gist of life

[@klparker76401]

Yum

[@derickharden2761]

Yumm

[@luvminiwheaties]

It seems like it would cook more thoroughly in the oven, also, papa duex makes giant size crab cakes, that would have to go in the oven right?

[@YaEat]

nice job

[@GabrielleMcBay]

Thanks!

[@superyachtchef]

Yo - I'm sitting on the fore deck of a 95 meter super yacht, just outside the bay of Naples Italy and I'm going to make your crab cakes in 10 mins for my guests and crew 🏅🏅🏅

[@GabrielleMcBay]

oh wow thats a vibe! I hope that they love the crab cakes =)

[@superyachtchef]

@@GabrielleMcBay l added some Cornish lobster and minced king prawns - served with a Thai - Caribbean fusion salad / dressing and decorated with edible flowers everyone

[@rochellebent7656]

i don't have mustard...is it super necessary? can i substitute something else? I love this it was simple and clear recipe

[@GabrielleMcBay]

the dijon does add a nice element-I've never made them without but wouldn't hurt to try!

[@leonbrovasik2103]

👍👍👍❤️

[@jessnstovall2010]

Would this recipe work if I put it on a big portobello mushroom and baked them? Thanks and it looks delicious ❤

[@GabrielleMcBay]

yup I think so -yum

[@mrpatrich18]

Yesss chef

[@GabrielleMcBay]

heyyy Patrich! lol

[@peaceloveforever88]

oh yes

[@Yonkiemo]

Delish!

[@shamell03]

Do you have the recipe for the sauce ? Everything looks delicious

[@GabrielleMcBay]

I’ll be posting one similar

[@sylviacarson6207]

Looks good 😊 I'mma new subscriber 🤩

[@GabrielleMcBay]

Heyyyy Sylvia ☺️

[@luvminiwheaties]

I went to krogers and they’re charging $24 for half pound of lump crab so I went to sprouts and it was $13. And sprouts claw crab was $8

[@rareform6747]

Dukes mayonnaise !

[@luvminiwheaties]

What store can I get these ingredients from?

[@hydrojet7x70]

So I did yours VS Chef Emeril Lagasse,..... Girl yours is way better than his! His wasnt Bam... His was Barf!

[@GabrielleMcBay]

thanks for watching and making Jonny!

[@tonybrown3800]

Dont do that to Chef Emeril, I grew up off BAM...

[@rockheadbikes1675]

If Im not mistaken you didnt use any bread crumbs, flour or panko crumbs to replace the bread crumbs?

[@GabrielleMcBay]

No-you can use some bread crumbs thought just to bind. I like to keep it all mostly meat and the good stuff

[@The.Living.Well.Christian.C]

Loved this! New Subbie here!!!

[@GabrielleMcBay]

Thanks for watching! And welcome ;)

[@The.Living.Well.Christian.C]

Gabrielle McBay You’re welcome! I made them!!! They are definitely a hit in my home!!!!

[@mikkiazanders2716]

will try. But where did you get that non stick skillet sis? I want it

[@GabrielleMcBay]

I think Homegoods or TJ MAxx-one of those =)

[@bugsycline3798]

it looks great, but I've never heard canned crab referred to as "Fresh Crab" before.

[@GabrielleMcBay]

yeah-one of the only canned things I eat for sure. I mean there are ones with different packaging-but yes-canned crab is fresh in this instance too.

[@user-zu7wg8vf7g]

When you say 1/2 of salt and pepper, exactly what do you mean because in your description the salt and pepper is joined together and not separated. Need more clarity.

[@Sonia-em8fq]

Where do you get the microgreens from?

[@GabrielleMcBay]

I got these from Restaurant Depot but Trader Joes, Whole Foods, and Sprouts usually has them

[@lookinggood2397]

How much crab it that tub ??? Get back at me I’m in the store now . 🙂

[@GabrielleMcBay]

I think a pound

[@patricadyson778]

Never heard of celery in crab cakes.

[@GabrielleMcBay]

You can omit if you'd like-I love celery

[@amandacarroll898]

I’ve always used celery seed, yum yum

[@keepio8400]

i am sorry but i have to......the first look of the crab cake would cost $100 in a resturaunt

[@GabrielleMcBay]

!!! Factual lol

[@deltanine2468]

What, where da sausage?

[@GabrielleMcBay]

sausage??

[@michelenedesormeau8313]

Nice recipe but, Oh boy we are not suppose to cook Mayonnaise.

[@GabrielleMcBay]

I don't use alot of it. Just enough to bind the crab cakes. or you can leave it out and just depend on the dijon and eggs to do it lol

[@tiffanyferguson937]

I didn’t like the outcome

[@GabrielleMcBay]

hate to hear that this recipe didn't work out this time for you. maybe next? =)
