Looks like Hoppy walking out of his 'Craigslist friends' house to find the local constabulary waiting for him.



Again.

Lobsters get eaten here when people not accustomed to lobster come to the house. Our friends from some European countries request it every time. We rarely eat it on our own.
Don't get me wrong, it's good, but there are plenty of other food we prefer.

 

[bluemoose]

Maybe have to try those dungheap crabs, but to be honest, they don't sound that great.

 

[paulthenurse]

Ate Dungeoness crab with an old girlfriend from Portland and her father. Don't remember the crab so much all, I remember is laughing like a retard with her dad, because he was one hell of a crazy, funny guy! Alas, his daughter equally crazy.

Did they have the transcontinental railroad by then?

Why so uppity bro? No lobsters? I'm surprised you're not a lobster newburg kind of guy. I'd have to put that as one of the best meals I've had. To each their own.

Most of the seafood places we have around here are of the fried variety. I'm not into fried food that much. I can't remember the last time I had fried clams before last year at the Clam Box. I think I blacked out half way through from a heart attack to finish it off.

I like it simple. Lobsters boiled in seawater, raw oysters, steamers or scallops. I agree fresh scallops are on a whole different level. If I'm at Woodman's or Farnham's that's what I'll get instead of something fried.

If I'm on the west coast I'll do the dungeness. Best I've had was at the Swan Oyster Depot in SF. Around here it just isn't fresh.

How 'Bout Them Red Sox! :rockin:

I owned a seafood restaurant and retail store (on 101 in Hoodsport, WA) and ran some boats for a few years and Dungeness crab was always a huge seller in season.
Never had to send any of the catch on to the wholesalers in Seattle, the tourists cleaned them out without fail.

But I have to say, bang for the buck they're second fiddle to a two and a half pound Maine lobster.
Tasty, sure, but Dungies are a pita for not-a-lot of protein.
(And if you ever had pan fried abalone, you'd totally forget about Dungies. But I digress...)

As for the lobstah, I have one or two per year. It's likely as much a tradition thing as something to savor.
My dad made the mistake of letting me have one when I was all of six years old and it cost him big time

Definitely going to have one when the clan assembles on the Cape of Cod next week...

Cheers!

[edit] As I ramble into my cups on a Friday night...
Speaking of shellfish...Pauly's Louisiana mudbugs had me salivating.
A couple years back my youngest son's wife returned from a trip to NO with 5 pounds of cooked tails for me and I was in heaven for two days.
Wife wouldn't touch them, especially when I kept calling them grubs.
More for me
Gawd, those were outstanding...

We're not all1%er's, Cape. Some folks can't afford to pay $50/#.

 

[the_bird]

Tell me about it!

Just float the LSU down the coast, way down the coast; thru the Panama Canal and up the other coast to Alaska and buy a couple crab pots. You too can then acquire some king crab for "free."

They're in season now. Only about $6/pound at the market.

Yea. Why does Paulie know the price of lobster and is walking around the seafood section of the Market Basket?

Because he can?

Don't you be calling my friend Cape an amateur, you amateur. He's a Pro Fesh Unull. He puts his own spin on it.

 

[paulthenurse]

Because he can?

Ya. Cuz I can.

 

[paulthenurse]

I've love baseball from my earliest memory but I've loaved competitive bike riding almost asking. The MLB All Star game had given me many a lifetime thrill, but the Tour de France tops it every year.


And if you think I'm stupid it's because you're so stupid you don't even know how stupid you are.

You're like Cape. A big, ginormous, moronic bag of stupid. Or Mort, a big, ginormous bag of stupid puking over the side of a research ship in the North Atlantic. Or AZ, a big, ginormous bag of stupid devoting his life to fish who aren't f'ing smart enough to swim downstream and move to FL, where the living is easy. Or Yooper, s big ginormous bag of stupid who thinks I'm serving lobster at Masstoberfest.

Eddy Merckx wasn't stupid. He was a cannibal. He ate big bags of stupid for breakfast.

If you guys get Eddie Merckx to come to Masstoberfest I'll force feed Yooper lobster like a French pate duck.

Advice to you kids out there. Tequila, dementia and the Internet are a BAD combination. Word to your Mutta.

 

[day_trippr]

I'm pretty sure your fan base already knew all that...

Cheers!

I don't think I have been s***canned enough to write something like that in a long time. Tuesday night indeed.

Vacation

 

[the_bird]

.. involuntary, but "vacation" none the less.

 

[bluemoose]

Would that be like the 3 day vacation Cape got from this site?

 

[paulthenurse]

No particular place to go....

 

[paulthenurse]

I fall to pieces...

 

[paulthenurse]

Stand by me...

 

[paulthenurse]

C'mon Baby, let's do the twist...

 

[paulthenurse]

Only youuuuuuuuuuu...
