3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup of finely minced onion
2 Tablespoons of Green Onion Minced
1 egg
1/2 tsp of Seasoning Salt
1/2 tsp of Garlic powder
1 tsp of black pepper(little less if you don't want them spicy)
2 Tablespoons of Butter (held)
Open can of crab meat and drain water, food process onion together to fine mince and drain water.
In a medium bowl combine all ingredients (EXCEPT BUTTER). Form into 4 patties.
Melt butter in frying pan and place patties in pan over medium to medium high heat. Fry on each side about 3-5 minutes until desired color. (I did mine on the softer side for obvious reasons, and made the rest for the family a little crispier)

I wear a shirt and tie to work everyday. One of my coworkers met me for lunch today and he said "Damn man you look like you raided your dad's closet. The shirt is too big for you now."
I got back from lunch and a lady that I work with said "You have been taking the assaway pills, it looks like you got no butt in your pants."
Ok I must admit I have never been accused of being light in the seat. Both together made me laugh today!
