Default Leon's Crabcakes

I love them. Already have the ingredients. Locked and loaded.

Is there other things that we can make with these ? Possibly some sides. Maybe Leon will know.

Always good for another Blu visit. Hopefully for new Preakness. He's a marvel to me.

Actually the crab meat is at it's best at this time of year. The crabs are fat and full and full of flavor.

Sounds interesting. We don't get dung crabs on the East Coast. Just blue claws.

We do get frozen King and Snow from Alaska, but they are what they are.

Where do they catch them ? What is the season for them ?

Had another Blu crabcake today. It's still Preakness. Was wonderful, the best recipe out there. I don't modify anything. Superb. So good.

Everytime I eat this I say "God Bless Blu".

Thank you Leon.

Port Townsend Bay is where they're from. I'm a "Jersey" bred, born in Camden.
Grew up eating Blue Claws, I can't really tell the difference in flavor, Blue Claws seem a bit sweeter. Season is year round in most areas, closures are around Seattle, Tacoma, and a few other areas.
