Method to the Rad-ness:

In a bowl mix the mayonnaise, Old bay seasoning, tabasco, garlic and lemon juice. Add the crab meat and panko crumbs.

Separate the mixture into eight equally sized parts and form into crab cakes. Put some Panko onto a plate and dip the crab cakes into the bread crumbs to coat them. Place the cakes onto a baking sheet and refrigerate for ½ and hour.

In a heavy frying pan heat ¼ inch of oil on medium high heat. Add the cakes and fry on each side for four minutes or until brown.
