LOL...Kittery, huh?  Do they bust your chops about having to "suffer" through the likes of places like Bob's Clam Hut and Robert's Maine Grill 2 for 1 oysters every Monday?


Yes, and they love to send me pics of their lobster dinners they eat up at camp.  Wearing their jackets on the 4th of July, when I am broiling.  Camp is on Sebec Lake.

Oh, that's right--I forgot to take pictures of those FOUR lobsters (averaged 2 1/2 lbs.) I cooked for Scoobie/Red and family.  Well, I actually got FIVE--one was a "cooker" (meaning it was dying/dead) so he told me to cook that one right away, and threw it in for free.  I did as soon as I got home and what's left of him is sitting in the freezer as we speak.

That's a beautiful area.  I need to start thinking about a day trip next weekend maybe.  I was thinking Conway, but the Massholes are gonna make that drive a nightmare, especially into and out of town.  Still too poor to take the Cog Railway up Mt. Washington, which IMHO is a tourist trap.

Maybe I'll just BBQ lots of stuff.

Ribeyes, anyone?

Yeah, it is gorgeous.  I don't get up there often enough.  That camp has been around for generations.  It isn't a "summer home,"  it is A Camp. 

Ribeye?  No thanks.  I can get em here easy enough.

Out here, the cut of meat known as "NY Strip" in some circles is known as "KC Strip."

I've always been partial to NY Strip, but KC Strip tastes pretty damned good, too.  :uhsure:

Yeah....I'd never heard it referred to as a NY strip until I moved east.

I remember asking the meat dept guy what the difference was? He said he'd never heard of a "KC" strip but a "NY" strip was a mighty fine piece of steak.... :thatsright:

That sounds really interesting, for sure!  How do you make it?   I'm guessing there is cheese involved, eh?

No more left.  BTW, Kroger has a good sale on Cod right now, and well, you know you can buy corn for cheap.  It was quite thrifty as well.   :-)

Finishing off the last of the tenderloin... pork, beautiful pork.  And bacon-and-cheese potatoes, too.
