May I suggest a trip to the dog park followed by visit with the groomer?    

I was thinking just stay on the porch.  I haven't seen anyone with so many excuses why not to get off the porch.

Hey Ron... SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!   

I gotta find someone to take ChefLar's place.. he has been MIA lately....

Computer on the blink at home. Tech support from Rajhneesh (Peggy) didn't work the other day. On the phone for an hour for nothing. Gotta find work then I'll switch over and update the s-l-o-w server at home. Nice to know I'm missed. You been to the VET lately? You must be due for some kind of shots.

If you would share that secret recipe with us, everyone could say how good of a cook your mom was!!!! It looks pretty darn okay good enough to eat!!

Well, you start by launching your boat and catching enough crabs to steam.... .

Yeah, I've been known to do that..... You can fast forward to the ingredient list. To make it easier on you, you can leave out the "add crab meat" part too.....

ok here ya go: 1 pound crab meat, 1 egg beaten, 2 T mayo, 1 t yellow mustard, 1.5 T Old Bay or J.O, 1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper, and ITALIAN seasoned bread crumbs (just enough to hold them together). Mix all ingrediants in a bowl and be careful not to break up lump meat. Shape into patties and broil or fry until golden.

My mom always said the italian bread crumbs and green peppers made all the difference from your run of the mill cake. I like my mine slightly spicy so I also add some cayanne pepper. You can add ingrediants or subtract to suit your taste. Hope you like em!!

That sounds almost exactly the same as my mom recipe. Only thing different is we don't add any old bay/Jo. I usually add that when Im picking. I always put the nice yellow crab mustard in the bole too

The wind is a big problem however yesterday was very calm. I only have 15 feet of line on my traps so I cant go super deep. I'm going to try again Thursday and Sunday so I hope I can find some. Below is a pic of what I did with yesterdays modest catch.

                          Man that looks amazing!

Hey culler, I use almost the exact same recipe... cept I add a tablespoon of lemon juice and use ground up ritz crackers in place of bread crumbs...  But then I prefer claw meat cakes over backfin.. No doubt I'm in a minority with the claw meat!

I think the claw meat definitely has more crab flavor than the rest of the crab. I picked several pounds of claw this season just for crab soup.
