Our seafood dinners have subsided quite a bit since my son gets migraines when he eats shellfish. So I came across this video. Anyone try it? Is it close?
Think I will try it.  Poor Man's Lobster |

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.
One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!". Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs. I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Go find a Thorazine thread for poor people dinner. LOL lobster averages $3-4 a lb up here. You ain’t balling eating that bullshit in New England. Shit, sometimes it’s cheaper than fucking 80/20 ground beef in the summer. Go find a thread for the rest of the suckers who pay $19.99 per lb for that garbage. |

Used to work in a "fancy French joint".
We served a Lobster Bisque with 1 lobster tail spread across about 500 gallons of soup. People loved it. Paid $8 a bowl for it. We had a monkfish special. Tasted just like the lobster special when we had that. Cost $13 a plate versus the $24 for lobster. I recall one wedding party wanted "the biggest lobster you can find" for some dish on the bride and groom table. Chef Claude had one of his buddies from the Cordon Bleu find him a 3 1/2 foot long, 60 pound monster that looked like it must have been 150 years old. The family got the bill for that and the Dad turned white and nearly fainted. The monkfish is fine if you can get it. |

Coarse,dark breads are now seen as for more refined palates but was the very definition of poor peasant fare. Ah, black breads. They are survival food, can be sharpened into an ersatz melee weapon and if you have two loaves then you are never without wheel chocks. It really sucks when your plague cart full of dead peasants rolls away from you in the steepest part of the village. |

1) I love cowboy kent rollins. I've made a bunch of his recipes and they've all been awesome.
2) in the weird state of wisconsin, many restaurants serve baked and seasoned cod cut into chunks with a side of drawn butter and call it poor man's lobster. We also eat walleye cheeks and call them scallops.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Monkfish is “poor man’s lobster” Anything else is made up bullshit This makes me laugh. Monkfish was always higher priced than lobster when ever I see it. I remember one sale at the store I worked at. Monk had the Poor mans lobster phrase on the sale tag. Was around $12 a pound. Lobster was not on sale at $6 a pound. |
