Crab Cake Feast - 2 Dozen Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes (5+ oz), Seafood Seasoning & Free National Shipping

Twenty-Four Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, Zero Filler, One Party

This is the pack for hosts who would rather spend party day with their guests than at the stove. Two dozen of our famous 5+ oz jumbo lump crab cakes (hand-formed, packed with big pieces of crab and made without filler) arrive frozen with dry ice, along with a shaker of HHC Seafood Seasoning for everything else on the menu. One reviewer orders this exact quantity for the same annual party every year, which tells you most of what you need to know.

The make-ahead entrée that behaves

Because the cakes ship frozen, they hold in your freezer until the date arrives, then thaw in the refrigerator and cook in batches under the broiler or in a hot pan. A cake this size sets up a beautiful crust while the jumbo lump inside stays moist, and a sheet pan of them can be held warm while the next round cooks, with no last-minute plating panic.

How far two dozen stretches

Served whole as an entrée, twenty-four cakes anchors a serious dinner party. Split onto toasted rolls with lettuce and a swipe of remoulade, the same box becomes sandwiches for a bigger, more casual crowd: graduation, retirement, a backyard milestone. At 5+ oz apiece, nobody walks away calling the portions dainty either way.

What goes on the table beside them

A crab cake spread lives or dies by its sides, so we wrote up five dishes that pair beautifully with crab cakes; most scale to a crowd as easily as the cakes do, and the included seasoning shaker ties the whole spread together with a light dusting over roasted potatoes or corn. Stock the freezer once and your next three occasions are already catered.
