Belated posting of Valentine Dinner

[GON]

Made filet and lobster tail for my Bride on Valentine's day. So much more predictable than going out to eat on Valentine day, and saved a load of cash. I think the quality may have been at or even above what one would get at a top chain steakhouse (Ruth Chris, Morton, etc).

All ingredients were purchased at Costco. Lobster tails were cooked on the grill.

That looks awesome!! Is lobster easy to grill? How exactly do you do it? I've never tried making it myself before.

I'm not much of a sea-food eater.

But I did try lobster once, I didn't like it.
It was to crunchy.

Ah...um...lobster meat is awfully tender when done right...I think you need a native New England’s to show you a few techniques...

Yep exactly. Lobster is supposed to melt in your mouth. We had it on a cruise formal dinner night. They brought us all the lobster we could eat. They didn't realize that I was a human garbage disposal haha!! I lost count after the first 'many" haha!!

Agreed. We had it at the beach seafood buffet. I come to the conclusion I hate lobster and crab legs. Especially when we were there for a week and my folks wanted to keep going back to the same seafood restaurant over and over each day.

That’s like eating at McDonalds and concluding that you don’t like beef.

What you got there is, well, junk.

I guess too many people read the sign that says fresh too much LOL. My parents said it was the best seafood they had in their lives.

Agree. Bake, broil or grill. Cooked plenty but never was crazy about it.

That's actually a joke.
Only crunchy when you don't take it out of the shell.

It's one of the reasons people don't invite me over for dinner.
