👨‍🍳 Instructions

Stir the cracker crumbs and water together in a mixing bowl.

Let stand 1 minute to soften the crackers.

Add the crabmeat, egg, mustard, and mayonnaise.

Season with Worcestershire sauce, seafood seasoning, salt, and black pepper; stir until evenly mixed.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Form the crab mixture into patties 3/4-inch thick.

Cook in the hot oil until golden brown on each side and hot in the center, about 2 minutes per side.

Drain on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.
