Man, if Jim hasn't already it would be absolutely amazing if he made a cookbook for all his amazing recipies
If we can find the time we will get pen to paper. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker that would certainly be one on my got to get list!
@@TheFishLocker Where do we order from, the whole world *NEEDS* the Spargo Fish Cookbook! 🤍
Blitzed cream crackers in a crab cake, who'd have thunk it? Man's a GENIUS! 👨🍳👨🎓
I second that!
Used to coat Crab cakes in smashed Mini-Cheddars. Great stuff John, Jim and the Crew. 👍
Absolutely love when Jim is in your videos. He is definitely a joy!
He surely is. 💙
Jim is a national treasure.
From catch to cook,is simply a work of art.
Thank you.
Jim is simply wonderful isn’t he.
Not a national treasure though,after Attenborough I’d have Stephen Fry next😁
Fresh roasted peppers and home made mayo and tartare sauce will make that crab a king of a meal as it deserves
We do prefer to do everything from scratch but we also occasionally show that these dishes can also be created from simple ingredients you can’t get from your local market.
I was hoping that you would give that huge crab to Jim for a cook-up! 😋
We had to!! 🦀👍🏻
When I saw that crab, I knew it would end up at Spargo’s ! 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
My favorite low key "restaurant". A gem only the locals have access to!❤️
It’s a very exclusive clientele allowed in. 😉
@@TheFishLocker 😊👍
Jim is as good a chef as you are at fishing, ive never been one for crab but ive got to give this a go, he really knows how to make you hungry with the stuff he comes up with, what a legend, thank you to you both for sharing this with us all, superb stuff
As always, it is our pleasure. 😊🦀
Mr Spargo and his style of cooking,use of other ingredients and use of spices is very educational and inspiring…always love watching him cook…much respect
Jim is wonderful isn’t he.
Any video with Jim is always a pleasure to watch. The fact he surprised himself is a testament to the wealth of knowledge he has. I'd love to spend a day with him in the kitchen, just soaking up his positive juju! Another fine job my brother! Love home to you Jim and the rest of the family.
I laughed when John said he wasn't a big fan of Coriander and Jim proceeds to throw a whole bunch in the mix lol.
😳
I'd be lying if I said I'm not jealous of you having Jim's amazing cooking done for you, it looked absolutely fantastic.
That monster crab went to good use.
Great video, and good to see Jim back in the kitchen making amazing food.
I love your fishing videos John. But man, these ones with Jim are super special 🙂
Jim is simply wonderful isn’t he. 💙🦀
Thanks John & Jim, amazing crab cakes & dip, I love watching you both in the kitchen preparing the dish & then eagerly diving in to what Jim has made, Delish! 😃
These videos are the best way to unwind after a long day on the construction site. Thanks, fellas!
I am glad we could help. 👍🏻
My partner showed me this video after talking about The Fish Locker for weeks and now I want a plush of Jim, he’s so sweet and melts my heart ❤
I just want to chill with Jim near a nice fire place with a glass of whiskey talking about life, food, and cooking. Jim is the man. Love spargo kitchen.
Jim has lived a truly fascinating life.
John, I almost hate this channel, your lobster / crab trapping really gets to me ! Yet alone the cooking. I’ve told you in the past how hard it is for me to watch you gather these lovely sea creatures. Just love it , and your channel with your lovely guests. Thank you all.👍🇺🇸✌🏻🙏🏽😎
love to see you and Jim cook amazing food from what you catch ...Jim makes everything look so tasty
Jim is simply wonderful isn’t he.
Love watching and listening to Jim….
CZcams’s very own Granda!
The Booby Robson of Football, The David Attenborough of nature, The Peter Allis of golf…. He’s one of them sorts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great stuff Jim, you’re a star ⭐️
Jim is one of a kind.
Hi John, after watching you and Jim I’m not only envious but hungry for crab cakes,what a great vlog especially with what you do with that huge crab,”cheers John,Jim.”👍🏻🦀😋🍺🍺
Thank you Andreas and have a wonderful day. 😊👍🏻
Love to see Jim make food, looks awesome and you can see he enjoys his job :)
Jim is simply wonderful isn’t he. 😊
The Fisherman and the Chef--A very winning combination!👍👍
You got that right!
I love these videos so much. Your family brings my heart so much joy. I learn so much from Jim's cooking techniques as well! I would also love to see what he is growing in his garden.
Jim is a treasure isn’t he. I am glad you enjoy joining us. 😊💙
Always a pleasure to watch Jim work in his kitchen. I'll try this one next time i get a big edible crab in my pots. Bon appétit!!! 👍👍👍
I absolutely recommend it.
Crab hauling and coastal foraging with some clean and cook. Love this stuff!
So do we. 😊🦀
What a bruiser of a crab. As always you two create a great team,looked amazing 🦀
Was jim a chef in his younger days? he certainly knows his stuff. Love the cooking videos!
He has been a professional chef for much of his life.
@@TheFishLocker Thanks for the reply!
Yer totally agree with all the comments, videos with Jim just make your videos more special, and you 2 go so well in the kitchen together , make you keep on making videos with Jim he seems so happy doing them too , absolutely 10 out 10 video well done to both of you loved watching it
I am so glad Jim was able to cook he is a genius in the kitchen, and thank you John that was a Levithan of the deep.
Great rewards from such a massive Crab fairplay, And a great cook up by Jim on the lovely looking Crab Cakes..
They were absolutely delicious Kevin. 💙🦀
It was a real treat watching Jim "The Man" in the Orange Apron do his Majic on that Monster Crab. I also loved hearing Jim speak Japanese, Jim is indeed the Real Deal, "God Bless Him!" Thank You
You and Jim videos. ❤️What's not to enjoy.😄
You both have so much knowledge and experience of your individual passions, which you both so freely share.🧑🎓🧑🎓👏👏
Thank you both so much.👍
Take care and stay safe.😷
We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. 😊🦀
Yet another fantastic cookery lesson and recipe from the Masterchef Jim. The crab and the mix of ingredients used to make the crab cakes look like they made a lush tasting snack. Loved the idea of adding cream crackers to give a little extra crunch
It was delicious.
The bag over the fire alarm made me laugh. 😅 Brilliant video Jim and John. Looking forward to the monkfish one.
That crab was given the royal treatment. It's lovely to see the process through and through. The catch was respected, 100% utilized, and brought joy to a community.
Probably not what you intended but that's one of the best KISS crab cleaning videos I've seen.
You don’t need to make things complicated. I show it in more detail on the other crab videos. 👍🏻
6:23 It's nice to see Jim have a humanising moment. He cooks like an absolute god and so have assumed he was until that moment. Love him! (And you John, of course!)
What you don’t see if we wind each other up and say things to each other that aren’t CZcams appropriate. 🤣🤣
@@TheFishLocker Ha, potential for a Fishlocker After Dark side account? :D
We call the "brown meat" mustard here in Maryland for our blue crabs since it typically turns bright yellow when we steam them. Thanks for showing folks where their food comes from. Great channel! Cheers from the US!
The man cooks understandable and easy, no pressure and hectic. Bring him more to cook and we are happy. Wel done.
Another great cook up @Spargos kitchen. Keep up all the great content J.L and all the best of health and well being to you and your family. Gary and Sheree.
Thank you guys and best wishes 😊🦀
Best fishing channel on you tube by a mile
Red pepper crab fresh out the ocean! Looks awesome!
Tasted amazing.
As ever where Jim is involved... Superb! My Best Wishes to all the family John.
Thank you Mike. Take care mate.
That crab did not disappoint! Looked very delicious! Thank you two for another dinner idea! Have a wonderful week John and Jim!
Thank you Julianne and have a wondeful day. 😊👍🏻
Very interesting John! The size of that crab was amazing!! Great recipe thanks Jim! Love making my own crab and fish cakes!! Licking my lips by the end of the video haha! All the best Graham ❤❤🦀🦀🦀
All the best my friend.
I love watching Jim cook 😀
Always fun cooking with Jim, wish I had smell-a-vision 😋❤️
Love Jim's passion for his cooking, great video as always both of you 👍🏴
Thank you Phil.
Love, love, love this. I was hoping Jim would come into play when I saw that monster come out of the pot a few days. I am watching this just before dinner and am so disappointed I'm having peppers and onions with sausage instead of amazing crab cakes. As always, thanks for doing this. Please tell Jim thanks as well.
And my mouth is watering! Jim you just keep that schooling going. Everything looked absolutely delicious! John, thank you for taking us to the kitchen.
Love Jim giving shoutouts to his boys 😅
Jim puts a real smile on my face 🩷
Wow wow 😊 they looked amazing. Home cooking certainty is the way to go. The shops couldn’t get them like that. Nice one Jim and that crab was a monster 😊
You couldn’t pay for food this good!!!
@@TheFishLocker if you could it would be money well spent 😎
Heck, this serving has made me hungry. Great stuff Jim and John, as ever. And the odd tip thrown in, too!
Fantastic looking crab cakes. Jim's recipes are great, you could do that as a crab pie. Mix and match from your catch and cook videos. 👍👍
Yes!!
Always love these collaborations! I'll have to try making these soon.
Knives are a great thing to bring back from Japan, I'm glad you had a good trip Jim. Makes me long to go back - I miss the food! But no other crab can compare to our brown crabs.
LOVE LOVE LOVE when Jim makes an appearance 🥰
Jim is a Gem!! The glow in BOTH of your eyes, as you create amazing meals and anticipate the first bite and all of the flavours! That's living!! I need to get some crabs and make some cakes and have all of my friends over to eat!! Nothing like good food and good company! Thanks Jim and John...for welcoming us into your kitchen to learn how to make some wonderful eats!! Dig, DmGrk
Absolutely fantastic catch & and cook. Thank you!!
It is our pleasure Suzette. Have a lovely day. 😊🦀
Saw you haul in that monster the other day, thought to myself "Hope he cooks that with Jim.." and here we are! Great content mate, thanks once again
We just had to!!
Two of my favorite peeps love the video love seeing Jim
😊💙
I love Jim talking shyte at 5:30. 😂
Leave some potatoes for the rest of us, Mr Locker!
Haha. Just lads having a craic.
All your best videos include the legend that is Jim ❤
Jim is wonderful isn’t he. 💙
Indeed sir but as are you your channel is something special 👍🏻
They look really good! I love the catch and cook videos. It's nice to see the brown meat being used as well. I'd like to see Jim make the mackerel fishcakes too if the recipe is different enough to the crab cake to be worth your time making a video of it.
Just replace the crab with cooked mackerel.
Marvelous lads ,back in spargos' kitchen ❤ thank you for the vid.
Any time Sean.
Can't beat homemade fishcakes. Jim's recipe wow, definitely worth a go at making. 👍
Let us know how you get on with them Linda. 😊🦀
spargo's kitchen is always the highlight of my day when they're posted
Excellent work fellas! That looks absolutely banging, love the idea for the roast pepper mayonaise too, I'll definitely be giving that a go!
It was delicious.
Those cakes look amazing! Next time you get one that big do a beach cook up!
You can’t. Too many tourists.
Locker + Spargo + Monster 🦀= 💯deliciousness 🤤.
That was so mouth watering we making plans for another trip to the coast to support the local fisherman and get some crabs yummee crack on
I like your plan. 👍🏻🦀
What a crab….Jim had a great idea in making crab cakes…. He is amazing with his recipes. Hope you enjoyed them.
Tremendous video. Better than in a restaurant.
What a nice guy Jim is. Love to see him cook.
that is one of the the most impressive edible crabs i have ever seen. a good few years ago someone found a gigantic one of the southsea coast, its carapace was 12 inches wide
It was a fantastic crab and delicious. 😊🦀
Great video with John and Jim😊
Thank you Neil.
Jim pulls it out the bag again, what a guy ❤
The amount of delicious meat that comes from a crab is literally ASTOUNDING!
The two I foraged a couple of weeks back, using lessons learned directly from The Fish Locker CZcams channel, seriously amazed me. I found three legal browns, two cocks, one hen, but again, following The Fish Locker's teachings, put the hen back to sustain the population! Then, after leaving, I was kicking myself, thinking no way would two crabs feed a family of four. We had ample meat, both white and brown, and all ate our fill.
Thank you to the two crabs, for their sacrifice, and, thank you to The Fish Locker, for sharing the passion, expertise, and techniques, to safely forage fresh food to share with my family! The mackerel and rock samphire of a week later was one helluva beautiful meal too!!! Living/Loving the Cornish dream. 🤍
What about dogfish, instead of ling, as a substitute for crab? (A shellfish allergy. You must have done something REALLY bad in a previous life to be born with such a cruel allergy!!!)
Defo feel the lovely creamy texture of dogfish, and the great taste, is REALLY overlooked!
I used to LOVE battered flake/rock salmon and chips, but you just don't see it in chippies any more. 🥺
I am not sure the flavour would work. But you are welcome to try and report back your findings? I’d be interested to hear your thoughts.
@@TheFishLocker So, if I catch 'em, Jim'll cook 'em, that's _precisely_ what you're saying, right? 😜
I've actually never even tried ling, done barely any reef/wreck boat fishing, so never had the chance to catch/eat them.
Love Jim's cooking! I was amazed when you hauled this crab in, and I'm still amazed!
Great to be in the kitchen once again John , interesting to hear of the use of monkfish for scampi ! They must of tasted great! Appreciate both of your efforts 👍🏼👍🏼
I just adore Jim!! It was hysterical when John says how much he hates Corriander, Jim proceeds to add 2 fists full 😂
And they’ve done it again 😂 I love all shell fish crab is nearly at the top of my list …..John how did you not try the meat whilst you was getting it out the shell ….your a better man than me 😂😂
Haha. I did. 🤣🦀
As Jim said " every day is a school day" and i wish my school dinners were as good as those crab cakes 🦀😅
Jim done that crab proud and theres enough for at least 2 more meals .
Makes me happy your hard work at sea pays off John
Take care Jim and John
Jason
Oh yes! I’m so glad I got to see that giant cooked up! I absolutely adore this channel, such a nice escape. Such a lovely family, great food, and there’s also an educational element to your videos as well! I cannot express the joy I get from watching! ❤
Marvelous ,, Thank you for another great video ,and an addition to my cooking ..
It is our pleasure Thomas.
Hey John, tell Jim we got lemon seeds to germinate by putting them in a shot glass of water on the windowsill. The tree grew for a while, but it wasn't sunny enough in the grey west Midlands for it to do anything fruit wise 😂😂
I shall pass that on. 👍🏻
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant .the rapour between you two chaps is a real treat it's easy to see you are great friends , two very knowledgeable people with the same passion for fresh healthy foods. Lets have some more please.
Beach fishcakes will be worth a trial particularly when you don't find much of anything in particular, so made from muscles, cockles, razor clams, scallops etc. A muscle sandwich with a spot of salad cream I'd also recommend.
Sounds nice.
Brilliant Video, thank you, John, for uploading it.
Just my kind of food, right up my strasse ❤
Mate it is absolutely amazing
Fascinating, I've been eating crabs my whole life and never heard of the brown meat. We just threw the whole top away. That meal looked delicious!
ouuuut on the boaaat... good to see a proper keeper!!! baaaaaaaaack in the kitchen!!! yum yum
Saw that monster crab catch John, I LOVE Jim's cooking, as before, please ask Jim about Whelks! 🦞🦞🐟🐟🦀🦀
Exactly what I had anticipated! 😀 Thank you for sharing.
That's quality of life. Very lucky chaps to have such top amazing top seafood on your door step. Brilliant 👌
My timing for watching your videos is always wrong just eaten n my mouth still watering cheers again to both of you 👍
Have a good one Phil. 😊👍🏻
To paraphrase an old movie - "That is not a crab. THIS is a crab!"
🤣🤣🦀💪🏻
Watching Jim work is just fascinating. I guess he used to be a chef? A fish locker/spargo cook book would be amazing.
Brilliant. Thank you both for another excellent video. Really enjoy the catching and cooking 👍❤
Your lucky to have a brilliant chef like Jim talented fella
