The History of Crab Cakes :: Box Hill Crabcakes, Maryland’s Best Crab Cakes

Tuesday, July 10th, 2012

As Maryland natives, we have been gladly devouring crab cakes for as long as we can remember. But how many of us have actually stopped to contemplate the history of one of our Maryland treats, the crab cake?

 

The History of Crab Cakes

 

Food historians traditionally trace the origins of the crab cake back to the American colonies, whose early settlers adopted English minced meat cake recipes and modified them to use what they had, which included crab meat! Since that time, crab cakes continued to grow in popularity, appearing in countless cookbooks throughout history.

 

It was not until 1930 in Crosby Gaige’s New York World’s Fair Cook Book, however, that the term “Crab Cake” appears in print, at which time they referred to the delicacy as a “Baltimore crab cakes.”

 

Crab Cakes Today

 

Crab cake recipes have changed little since their inception in colonial times (although everyone has their own special twist to the traditional crab cake recipe, like Box Hill’s secret family recipe). What has changed, is the availability of crab cakes today. Did you know that you can now order your crabcakes online?

 

Life Doesn’t Get Much Better Than That!

Box Hill Crabcakes: Baltimore’s Best Crab Cakes

Wednesday, June 6th, 2012

You have heard us week in and week out claiming that Box Hill Crab Cakes are home of Maryland’s Best Crab Cakes! But you do not have to take our word for it. See what others are saying about our delicious crabcakes!

 

Baltimore Magazine – Crab-ilicious!


“Crab cake to reckon with”

 

“In addition to its excellent pizzas, subs, and Italian specialties, this Harford County favorite delivers a crab cake to reckon with. The 8-ounce sphere of lump crab with coleslaw, fries, and garlic bread ($13.99, other combos available) is a farmhand’s bounty. There’s nothing fancy here, from the serve-yourself sodas to the plastic tableware, but the cake is worth the trip.”

 

CHOWHOUND – Best crabcake in America

 

“Originally from Maryland, and a connoisseur of Chesapeake Bay Blue Crabs, I speak with authority as well as the vote of 25 years worth of Marylander’s when I say that Box Hill Pizzeria has the best crabcake in the US. It is all lump backfin, broiled, and is served slightly “wet”. If you have to ask don’t read any further, you don’t have the “crab skills” to understand what makes it the best. Served year round, but of course, at the height of flavor from Mid-May until Mid-October. Box Hill Pizzeria is located in Abingdon, Maryland, about thirty minutes north of Baltimore. It is simply indescribably delicious. Makes my mouth water just typing this.”

 

HomeRome Realty – For Perfect Crab Cakes Head to Box Hill Pizzeria in Belair, Maryland

 

“The Perfect Crab Cake” is something many restaurants in Maryland claim, but there’s one place we’ve found that can back that claim with delicious proof.

 

The Box Hill Pizzeria is known for its pizza, of course, but it’s the crab cakes that bring people back. They were perfection, lumps of backfin crab (the best and sweetest crabmeat there is), seasoned and broiled to perfection, served up plump in generous portions. Box Hill’s crab cakes were just picked among the best by Baltimore Magazine in the July 2009 issue. Yummy!”

Valentine’s Day: History, Romance, and Crab Cakes!

Monday, January 9th, 2012

 

Saint Valentine’s Day, more commonly referred to as just Valentine’s Day, was first established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. The day commemorates the Catholic martyr Saint Valentine, who secretly performed marriages in Ancient Rome. This act was in direct defiance of the Roman emperor Claudius II, who outlawed marriage after deciding that single men made better soldiers.

 

When Valentine’s actions were discovered, the emperor ordered that Valentine be immediately put to death.

 

Today, the romantic February 14th holiday is a worldwide commemoration of love and affection, celebrated in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia. If you really want to impress that lucky man or woman in your life, take them on one of the unique Valentine’s Day dates we have outlined below.

 

Carriage Rides: What is more romantic than a horse-drawn carriage ride? Not much! So snuggle up with your favorite guy or gal and enjoy the ride.

 

Hot-Air Balloon Rides: It’s exciting and it’s not something that your significant other will expect.

 

Amusement Parks: If you both love thrill rides, this is a no-brainer. And try your best to win your lucky girl a teddy bear while you are there.

 

Helicopter Rides: This can be fairly expensive, but it is well worth it!

 

Ice Skating: Ice-skating is a fun event for all ages. And if either you or your date doesn’t know how to skate, lessons can be just as fun. Then, afterwards, snuggle up by a nice warm fire and sip on some hot chocolate. Now doesn’t that sound romantic?

 

Rent a Limo: If you are feeling like a fancy night out on the town is more your style, then a limousine is the only way to go.

 

Dinner at Your Place: This is a classic. If you really want to make that lucky man or woman in your life feel special, nothing says “I love you” more than a romantic candlelit dinner for two. And if you really want to make the night special, put Box Hill crabcakes on the menu!

 

If you want to order Box Hill Crabcakes for your romantic Valentine’s Day dinner for two, you’ll need to place your orders early to secure your delivery date. You can order online at http://www.boxhillcrabcakes.com/
