Mine is Better

Delete the onion powder and add a cup of sauteed onions and green bell pepper, PLUS!! 1/2 pound of shrimp (1/4"-3/8" pieces). You should get 8 good-sized burgers

4th of July Party

I'm from Arizona where crab is not plentiful. I substituted ground beef for the crab and served them on hamburger buns. I received so many compliments. A real crowd pleaser!

Why Ruin This With FAT??

I agree with others that Hellman's rocks. They have a light version that rocks too. Remember, you can always 1/2 mayo and 1/2 plain yogurt and cut your fat and get a great flavor too. In lieu of all of the fats (i.e., butter & olive oil), a well seasoned cast iron grill over two burners and olive oil and/or butter flavored pam for grilling. Also, panko and crab are very light flavors, however Dijon and celery seed are NOT. a light hand in using these because why ruin the lovely sweet flavor of fresh crab. Now if you are using "KRAB" (a pollock) product, season away.

    These burgers have a true crab flavor that isn't masked by fillers or strong seasoning. Serve on a bun with tartar sauce or with a lemon-juice-dressed salad of greens, sprouts and sliced peaches. This recipe works best with convenient pasteurized crabmeat, usually found in the refrigerated case near the fish counter. If you prefer lump crabmeat, cut it into small, uniform pieces.
