Nothings screams "I'M FROM MARYLAND!" more than this Maryland Flag Shirt. This cool shirt has the iconic Maryland Flag with a blue crab twist.
The official Maryland Flag has the arms of the Calvert and Crosslands families. It was officially adopted as the state flag in 1904.

Explaining the Eastern Shore of Maryland to out of area folks is damn near impossible. If you know, you know. Yes, we're in the same state as Baltimore and Annapolis, but we might as well live in different countries.
Here on the shore, we like huntin', fishin', and swimmin' in the rivers. We drink 10 oz Budweiser (Yep, you read that right!). We are used to the smell of manure on the fields, and a traffic jam is a tractor and a couple of cars.
Nope, we're not from Maryland, we're from the Eastern Shore.
No matter the season or occasion, Maryland Flag shirts are always a great gift for a Maryland lover.

Maryland crab cakes are super easy to make. If you use the freshest blue crab meat that you can get and a few simple ingredients, even a beginner can get great results making Old Bay crab cakes.
You can broil them, fry them, grill them, or put them in the air fryer. Whichever you choose, they all start with the same basic ingredients.
These are the basic ingredients straight off the Old Bay Can.
There's nothing fancy on that list. I do make a few changes when I make Maryland Crab Cakes. You have to have filler so that they don't fall apart, but I use crushed saltine crackers instead of bread. I put them in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin or with my hands. You want the crackers ground up fine with no big pieces.
The mistake many restaurants make is that they substitute filler for crab meat. Who wants to bite into a crab cake and taste crab flavored bread instead of chunks of crab???
When mixing if the mixture seems a little dry, I add a little more mayo.
The recipe says to mix all the ingredients adding the crab meat last. I have always put it all in a bowl at the same time and mixed it with my hands. Maybe that's an Eastern Shore thing.
Who doesn't love a good crab feast? There's nothing better on a hot summer day than crabs, beer, and FRIENDS! T-Shirt comes in sizes XS - 4XL. Order yours today!
Once you have the ingredients mixed together, shape them into lumps, patties, or large balls.
If you're from Maryland, you know the Rules of a Good Crab Cake
The secret to a great crab cake is the simplicity of the ingredients, quality of crab meat, little filler, and Old Bay. You should be able to see the crab meat. It shouldn't look like a big flat chicken patty. YUCK!
A delicious Maryland Crab Cake doesn't need fancy sauces. Most people I know (I'm on the Eastern Shore.) eat it with or without a bun, and basic condiments. Tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, ketchup, mayo, or an extra sprinkle of McCormick Old Bay Seasoning is all you need.
The only place I've ever seen anyone add lettuce, tomato, or onion was in a restaurant.
