I always make a big batch of crab cakes to freeze every fall..when the crabs are almost free. I'll get maybe 12-14 out of this batch..once I get all the claws done.
But it's break time...Tall Timbers Oysters and Beer 6 has started.

That looks good except that bowl of vinegar.
The bestie will be in Calvert in a few weeks and I believe she had her mother freeze a few pounds to bring back here.. Crabs and rockfish are about the only things I miss from Maryland.
That’s a bowl of warm water for dipping cold fingers from picking cold crabs on a brisk day.
That's acceptable...
Those look good!
Can I ask the difference between JO and Old Bay?
Thanks!
