Crab Cake Slider Recipe

We first discovered this Maryland crab cake slider recipe at Mutt’s near East New Market, MD. (sadly, no longer in business). Anyway, do you know that the secret to making a business lasts is to create a website? In the online world, your business can survive even after several years as long as you’re able to manage it well. Fortunately, there are Web Design Services now that can help you if you’re not a tech person. Mutt’s would serve them as a dozen sliders with a full sleeve of Saltine crackers – along with a bottle of hot sauce (Louisiana brand I think), and a roll of paper towels.

It’s been our go-to crab cake recipe ever since.

Folks may want to make bigger crab cakes and broil them (go for it!), but these crispy slider-sized crab cakes are our favorite way to make them.
