Scallops

Hello Ladies and Gents,

Looking for advice on scallops and lobster.  Any favs?

TIA

The problem with a problem is that you don't know it's a problem until it's a problem, and that is a big problem.

    For scallops I prefer U10 Dry.  

    When it comes to lobster, I never met one that I didn’t like. I like them all about equally.  

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    For scallops- dry and dust each side with flour. Butter and hot pan to brown each side- less is more. My opinion- skillet is the way to go here. 

    There will be others coming in with better lobster advice than I can offer.

    LOBSTAH. Ive only done tails but this a winner:

    Split meat down the middle and pull out of split shell leaving end attached.  

    Balance in pan with 1.w5 " water  and put on hot grill, cover with aluminum foil.  Steam until meat is opaque and NOT rubbery   check cooks illustrated for IT temp guide.

    Serve with clarified butter and lemon and be a GOD
