Name your Favorite Fish, Fowl, or Meat

I prefer beef steak. My favorite is Rib-eye with the bone in... Sear the outside and cooked to medium

DW prefers Filet Mignon.

I am also partial to lobster. Lay on the clarified butter.


The perfect surf and turf.


Come to think of it... I could have quite a list of favorites

I am almost a vegetarian. I gladly succumb to bacon. Really.

Fresh, huge, succulent Louisiana shrimp!!

(OK - - "fish, fowl, or meat"; shrimp are "shell-fish" so that is my rationale)

Chicken...dipped in egg and coated with a mixture of crushed corn flakes, pecans and self rising flour. Fried to a golden brown in hot oil...using a cast iron skillet of course. My specialty.

...oh yeah, thick milk gravy on the side..........

Pascal's Manales style barbequed shrimp. But I'm working on KC strip(steak) and various forms of Kansas City BBQ.

Cholesterol 240 - yikes! Never been above 180 before. And don't ask about the good cholesterol.

heh heh heh - Crap, I hate nuts and twigs.

Mine was about that high, too. Could it be a side effect of our lifestyle here?

So, I take cholesterol meds, exercise, eat healthy foods MOST of the time (except on weekends), and then for about a week before the blood tests I avoid shrimp (!! I know - - such deprivation!) and eggs. That seems to make my doctor happy with the numbers.

LOVE those fresh Louisiana shrimp.

Shrimp and grits with red-eye gravy.
Country fried steak
Real fried chicken
Rare ribeye steak on the grill

And for easy and cheap (and healthier than the above), you can't beat a london broil in the crockpot with some onion gravy mix and water--roast beef sandwiches for days!

We are big fish eaters, my favourite being grilled salmon that I have marinated in my homemade soy-orange marinade.

Pot Roast. Really.
Salmon broiled with lemon butter sauce.
Fried chicken. Homemade and double dipped. Best eaten cold, washed down with a Yuengling.

Oh dear goodness theres no easy favorite...

A couple of suggestions...

Anything wrapped in bacon although a scallop or snippet of tenderloin are delish. A really well cooked piece of duck, either tea smoked or in the Peking style with very crispy skin. A lot of places in the northeast deep fry little lobster tails and serve them with butter and there is nothing better than a basket of those. Real fried clams with bellies. A rib eye thats been marinated in garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper and then grilled and dunked in herb butter just before serving. Well rubbed and long smoked ribs with a home made bbq sauce.

I think those are all bobbing at the top of the barrel...

Take a pill. Problem solved. My favorite is a filet mignon. Of course I like fried chicken, fried shrimp, fried catfish, fried oysters, etc...... Can you tell I'm from the south?
