Canned crab

[Deeremaxx]

Anyone have a recipe for canned crab?
Was gifted a case, and I’m at a loss on what to make with it.

Crab cakes? Or crab and corn bisque?

Does the can mention anything about the grade of the pieces of crab such as claw, special, backfin, lump, or jumbo lump? This will help with what recipes to suggest.

Crab Cakes. This video from Traeger specifically uses canned crab: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhbGl962w6M

Crab dip too.

Crab Imperial, how could I miss that one. Fish stuffed with crab or just on top.

Don't forget about a crab quiche and crab quesadilla and taco. I also think that almost anything that calls for scrimp, you could substitute crab. Worth a try.

If it's the finely minced stuff, it makes a good crab bisque or crab dip.

[Deeremaxx]

That sounds good

Actually, I need to experiment with this. One of my favorite things to eat is a crab-stuffed salmon buy-and-bake type meal at HEB. But they are now $9 each. I need to figure out how to make it myself. They also use imitation crab meat.....for $9, I might as well use real crab, even if canned!

Agree on the crab cakes. The recipe here on Amazing Ribs is the best out there in my opinion.

Paired with other Seafood make a Seafood Lasagna.

Crab cakes are ridiculously easy. The stuff is already cooked, you’re just mixing them up and heating them through.
