The selections include The Crab Place, based in Crisfield, and Phillips, based in Baltimore. The unranked editorial roundup draws on shopper reviews and the writer’s personal experience.
The Crab Place’s Maryland Blue Crab Cakes earned praise for their ingredients, quality, taste and texture. The writer described them as “some of the best I’ve ever had” and recommended ordering extra because they tend to disappear quickly. Available in 4 oz and 6 oz sizes, along with bite-sized 2 oz crab balls, the crab cakes can be prepared in an air fryer from frozen in less than 20 minutes, according to the article.
Phillips Crab Cakes were highlighted for their creamy Maryland-style blend of crab and seasonings. The article cited a Target shopper who praised their flavor and said they worked well either thawed and cooked with a little oil or air-fried from frozen.
