    F Me, le gastronome!  I have enjoyed some of the most delicious and memorable sushi with him (along with fantastic company).

    chadwick, I bet you would dig it.

    How do you cook it?  I love lobster but it's so rich to me.

    (of course this has made me crave the now-defunct Brown Derby's lobster thermidor - damn, that was so so good)

    I love lobster. Soooo much. Some corn and little baby potatoes to go along with it. Fuck and yes.

    i used to boil it but have steamed it a bit more of late as it's easy to overcook when boiling. I'd like to grill sometime but never have.

    For those that use coconut oil over olive oil is it because it withstands higher heat, and has more fat, or is it for other reasons? I started to read about cooks using it just recently.
    I use coconut oil as well as olive oil; depends on what I am cooking. I like using coconut oil in Asian-inspired meals. The flavor adds another dimension.

    You can also use unfiltered coconut oil with the flavor in it or filtered coconut oil that has little to no flavor. 

    It is used for high heat cooking and as Hobbes stated it's good for asian and Indian curry inspired meals.

    Then add a dash of sesame oil at the end to kick it up a tad.

    I just roasted five heads of garlic to use throughout the week. My apartment smells wonderful. I'm looking forward to cooking new dishes. :)

    Got a bone in pork shoulder for tomorrow. Gonna do a little porchetta action with it. Smother it in garlic, rosemary, sage, lemon, olive oil overnight. Gonna do it on the grill. Likely in a pan to retain juice and get that skin nice and crispy. It's a 10 pound fucker, so gonna take a while.
