The recipe calls for lump crab meat (aka picked crab from blue crabs more common down south) but we think it would be delicious with Jonah crab or peekytoe crab (aka sand crab) to give it a local twist. Blue crabs are also increasing in our area due to warmer water temperatures and so you may be able to find some local blue crabs but you will probably have to pick them yourself.
