Do you prefer steak or lobster?

[JohnWilson]

In your opinion?

 

[Bumbo]

Ill take a steak over lobster... but ill take crab over lobster when it comes to my surf.

That said, if I go out to a nice place, I generally do a surf and turf kinda deal if I can.

I went out with my brother for a travel dinner and went hard... 24 oz dry aged prime ribeye, stone crab, king crab, oysters, and wine... Opulance during a meal is quite nice; I wish I could afford that more often haha.

I used to prefer steak over lobster (I really like both though) but it seems I have a harder time digesting red meat these days so now I prefer lobster. Spent a week up in CT last year and ate lobster and crab everyday, it was awesome!

 

[AudiTech]

I would take chicken, turkey, ham, pork, lobster, fish, brats, etc over steak.

 

[philsey]

I do like a nice ribeye, but oysters on the half shell followed by stone crab claws FTW.

It depends where I am at. If home in Iowa, steak. If visiting my pal Jeff in Maine, lobster. Best of both worlds.

 

[kcdehart]

I'm typically more of a steak person, myself. But if I'm on the coast and fresh seafood is offered (be it lobster, clams, scallops, whatever may present itself) I'll usually go for that.

I'm allergic to shellfish, but I love the taste of lobster. But I'll take steak over all

 

[Whammy]

Both?? :bigok:

 

[Mass 4runner]

If it's a great cut of meat, and it's prepared perfect medium rare, then I'll take the steak. Otherwise I'll take the lobster. Harder to screw up a lobster and even the average ones are still a treat.

Steak I like lobster can’t say I love it but I like it. Maybe if I ever got to visit New England I’d be more of a fan of lobster. I’m sure Red Lobster in Oklahoma City isn’t a Mecca for great lobster chefs. I do love crab cakes that’s hard to beat

 

[ddnww]

Depends on the cut of steak, and on the style of seafood.
A good ribeye I will probably take first. I don't really like seafood from places like red lobster etc., but seafood Mexican style(mariscos) wew!! now that is delicious. I would probably take that over the steak.

 

[Bumbo]

I had to Google Mariscos... never been there, but the food good looks pretty dang good.

Ill have to see if I can find one around here, looks solid.

That said, I think its a lot easier to find a good steak, then it is good sea food, at least for a given price of a typical meal.

Steak. Filet mignon. But comes with a caveat. If I'm at a good steakhouse that also serves lobster, I'll always choose a steak. If I'm at a good seafood place that also serves steak, I'd choose lobster (or more likely some other form of seafood).

 

[Overlanding99]

When if theres an option for surf and turf, it gets chosen. Nuff said.

 

[Beaumont67]

I've had fresh lobster in Wooster, MA and Halifax, NS Canada & it was absolutely delicious.
- but the smoked salmon, in the Halifax Market...was to die for & real expensive, but never found a good local source

I grew up on a beef & pork farm, as a kid / I grille a mean steak now, but our adult son wants a homemade burger instead.
- a special burger, fries and large draft in downtown Toronto cost him $48
- my "BBQ'd Dad burger", is just as good...just different
- like a lobster meal, while travelling to the East coasts
Because I grew up around a lot of red meat / good Lobster, is always a special treat.

 

[clo_iam]

I'd say Lobster, being that steak is easier to get... But then again, spend top dollar on steak, and it's always a great experience.

I guess a good surf and turf meal is ideal.

 

[Ray Dunakin]

I'm a hard core red meat guy, so steak would definitely be my first choice. However, I do enjoy a good rock lobster tail now and then, as long as I can get cocktail sauce with it.

 

[JET4]

lobster dipped in butter

 

[derryck]

That depends...which one is wrapped in bacon?
