Why the Pieces Are So Large
Jumbo lump crab meat comes from the two large muscles that power a crab’s swimming fins. Because each crab has only two of these muscles, jumbo lump is especially prized.
Careful picking keeps these swimmer-fin muscles intact, producing the impressive whole pieces associated with jumbo lump. Their mild, sweet flavor makes them a centerpiece in premium Maryland crab cakes.
Preparation
Preparation
Jumbo lump crab cakes: broil
- Thaw the crab cakes and place them on a broiler pan or baking sheet.
- Broil for approximately 12 to 14 minutes, until golden brown and crisp on top.
Bake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and place the thawed crab cakes on a baking sheet.
- Top each crab cake with a pad of butter or drizzle with melted butter.
- Bake for approximately 7 to 8 minutes, then broil for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
Sauté
- Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking.
- Add the thawed crab cakes and sauté for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Transfer to paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Beef tenderloin: grill
- For charcoal, place the meat directly over medium coals. For gas, preheat the grill and reduce the heat to medium.
- For a 1-inch cut, grill for 10 to 12 minutes for medium rare (145°F) or 12 to 15 minutes for medium (160°F), turning once halfway through.
- Transfer to a platter, cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
Skillet
- Choose a heavy skillet that holds the meat snugly in one layer, and pat the meat dry.
- Lightly coat the skillet with nonstick spray and preheat over medium-high heat until very hot.
- Add the meat without liquid or a lid, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 to 13 minutes, turning occasionally, to 145–160°F.
- Transfer to a platter, cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
Broil
- For cuts under 1½ in thick, position the broiler rack so the meat will be 3–4 in from the heat, then preheat the broiler.
- Place the tenderloin on the unheated rack of a broiler pan.
- For a 1-inch cut, broil for 12 to 14 minutes for medium rare (145°F) or 15 to 18 minutes for medium (160°F), turning once halfway through.
- Transfer to a platter, cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.

Beef Tenderloin and Jumbo Lump Crab Cake: the Chesapeake Pairing
Around here, surf and turf does not automatically mean lobster. It means a crab cake beside a good steak, and this box makes the case with two 7–8 oz beef tenderloins and two 5¼ oz jumbo lump crab cakes: dinner for two, plated the way any Maryland chophouse would recognize. The cakes come from the same kitchen as our whole-crab feasts, built around the big lump pieces a Marylander expects to find when the fork goes in.
One Skillet, Two Stars
Sear the tenderloins hard in a heavy pan and set them aside to rest. That resting window is exactly when the crab cakes take their turn in the skillet, flipped once, until each side goes deep gold. By the time the cakes have drained on paper towels, the steaks have settled their juices and everything plates hot at once. The steak fat left behind even does the cakes a favor: a layer of browning flavor you could not buy separately.
Keeping the Plate Honest
Tenderloin and jumbo lump are both rich, so the supporting dishes should cut rather than compete: acid, crunch, something green. The pairings in our five favorite crab cake side dishes lean exactly that direction.
The Reservation You Keep in the Freezer
The combo ships frozen over dry ice in an insulated cooler and holds in your freezer until you name the night. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, give yourself twenty unhurried minutes at the stove, and a random Thursday turns into the table you would otherwise have had to book weeks out. No corkage, no parking, and the leftovers policy is entirely your own.
