These turned out pretty good. It was my first time making crab cakes and had a little bit of a hard time with the cooking but I think I just couldn't get the temp right or something. But all in all a pretty good recipe! I made with Red Lobsters Cheddar Bay biscuits #256914, yum! Made for March 2011 PAC.
