Crispy Crab Cakes Anyone?

If there is anything on a menu that draws Boo in, its usually the crispy crab cakes. He usually tells me how much he loves them and then reminisces about how his Nana used to make them at the beach house. Yummy!

He called me the other night to inform me that he was recommended a recipe by a fellow co-worker and that he'd like to make them for dinner. Fine with me, however this Utah native doesn't know jack about buying canned crab. Seriously.

After some debate of which recipe was better and trying to help Boo figure out how to combine the two recipes for optimal flavor we were pleasantly surprised with the outcome. (PS - That's my version aioli that you see on the crab cake)

Mmmm, that looks good. Nice work on the aioli (glad you figured out what it actually is) and combining two recipes. Hey, be glad Boo actually volunteers to make dinner sometimes!
