5 year ban on east coast lobster catching possible. this is cold water lobster, which is generally sweeter and has more taste then spanish, or spiny lobster.

anyone else bummed? i love lobster. but the reason is a good one.

Lobster is good but I don't have it too much so it's all good.

Well it's only a fishing ban from Mass. to Virginia....Most of them come from Maine so I wouldn't worry too much.

Nearly 90% of the nation's lobsters come from Maine, according to George Lapointe, commissioner of the Maine Department of Marine Resources. He estimates that only 4 million pounds of lobsters were produced in other states last year, so the ban won't have a large practical impact.

As long as it won't touch Maine, it's all good.

Anything that is done to ensure that delicious lobster will be around for a long time, is good with me

I've always wanted to post this picture...

I love lobster so much. But I always feel so guilty when I see them in the tank at the grocery store. :(

They're crustaceans that are dropped into huge sauce pots of boiling water. I feel no sympathy for them when it comes to nomming. HOWEVER, I do feel sympathy for my wallet when it comes to paying lol

Get some 2 1/2 lb Australian tails, and tell me they aren't the best. Nice, meatier flesh that's less rubbery if cooked right. Chop it up, put it in a pail full of drawn butter, and watch a movie.

At the Buffalo Chophouse, the surf and turf options that feature the Australian lobster tail is at CHEAPEST $82 (that's like, a ten year anniversary dinner or my first meal as a lottery winner right there lol).

Me and Koz use to cook people tons of surf and turfs with over 3 lb Australian tails, and hand-cut black angus filets of any size. Also available with any size hand cut 109 bone-in ribs(which I can cook lie a mother-fucker-no one else could). We probably have cooked an over $200 meal.


Hungry now mofo?????????????/

Got me 2 packs of tenderloins from Budweys. They were marked 7.99/lb. Had to be a mis-mark; anyways I swiped 'em up. Made a bad ass 6 oz. sandwich on a grilled Costanzo's hard roll, with fresh LTO and mayo.

Edit: add melted provolone.



Awwww ya babe....






Unutha notch!
