But i seem to be hitting some roadblocks on my quest to red lobster...dangit.

Posted by Allegra (Member # 6773) on :

I'm sorry. I love shrimp too. At 5 I ate almost a pound of shrimp by myself when no one was watching. It was at a family reunion. They were shocked, but I was just happy. [Smile]

Posted by Ben (Member # 6117) on :

roadblock overcome.

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

In Florida, there are roadside shrimp stands where people sell shrimp they caught that day in the St. John's River. [Smile]

Posted by Allegra (Member # 6773) on :

Do they still have heads and things? I don't know if I could handle that.

Five years ago, I visited Bahia (another Brazilian State) on vacations. Man...their shrimps...hmmm...delicious! And cheap too! I remember a plate full of them costing, like...6 Reais. That would be $2,00, give or take.

Posted by Ben (Member # 6117) on :

shrimp eaten, problem solved. scampi was devoured for over an hour. good times for gluttonous me.

Actually, IHOP is running their "Never Ending Shrimp Platter" again.

Although they don't have Red Lobster's most excellent biscuits. [Big Grin]

Pancakes and shrimp? Shrimp and pancakes?!?

*shudder*

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

All depends on how badly you want the shrimp. [Big Grin]

I love Red Lobster's cheese biscuits.

No shrimp for me, though. [Smile]

Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :

Ivygirl had IHOP's all-you-can-eat shrimp basket on Sunday. (no, there are no pancakes with it -- just french fries). She loves shrimp. (I don't).

I have Red Lobster's cheese biscuit recipe, though! *smirk*

We don't have Red Lobster's recipe, but we made our own and actually like it even better.

I like all you can eat shrimp, but what I really used to enjoy at Red Lobster was all you can eat snow crab.

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

Jumbo Shrimp, Oxymoron?

Posted by breyerchic04 (Member # 6423) on :

I love red lobster. Farmgirl post the recipee for the biscuits, they are amazing. Thanks

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

I can't resist calling Red Lobster, Led Robster.

Posted by Sara Sasse (Member # 6804) on :

Thank you so much, Storm Saxon. Not. [Mad]

I now gift you with this:

"What does it do? It doesn't do anything -- that's the beauty of it!"

Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :

breyerchic -- I will have to look it up at home.

Where I used to work -- my manager there had formally been a manager at Red Lobster, so he would make those biscuits at home all the time and bring them to work for us to eat! Ymmmmmm

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

Oooooh...

I'll second that request.

Please? Pretty please? My arteries are feeling too healthy. [Big Grin]

Oooh, I can taste those biscuits now...

You know, I think Ben is one of my favorite posters. I do hope, though, that that doesn't cause his head to swell to gargantuan proportions, causing dogs, small children, and light to be unable to escape its gravity well.

Posted by blacwolve (Member # 2972) on :

*thinks about mentioning the all you can eat dining hall's fairly frequent inclusion of shrimp on the menu*

I don't even like shrimp.

Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :

I too have my own version of the Red Lobster rolls:

Simply make biscuits according to your regular recipe, but mix into the batter most of a package of cheese from a box of Kraft Mild White Cheddar Mac & Cheese. Five to ten minutes before the biscuits are done, brush the tops with butter and dust with a little bit more cheese powder. MMMmmmm. [Smile]

Pillsbury also sells a cheese biscuit product in the freezer section of the grocery store, but theirs uses regular cheddar instead of white cheddar, and mine is better! [Razz]

Posted by saxon75 (Member # 4589) on :

What happens to all the macaroni, though? Does it just end up being sad that it didn't get to become macaroni and cheese?

Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :

If you really feel badly for it (bearing in mind that it costs like $0.50 a box) you can serve it with tomato sauce, or toss it with butter and parmesan cheese. [Smile]

Posted by saxon75 (Member # 4589) on :

It still doesn't get to become macaroni and cheese, though. It would end its existance feeling unfulfilled, knowing that it had a chance to become something great but failed to live up to its potential. Man, that's such a downer.

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

The pasta in most mac and cheese boxed mixes is so pathetic in taste, so lackluster in texture, that anyone who dumps the pasta into the trash compactor would be doing the pasta a favor by putting an end to its miserable existence.

Posted by Macaroni (Member # 6908) on :

You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it. It was you, Storm.

Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :

Hehe. Saxy's talking to himself!

[Laugh]

Posted by UofUlawguy (Member # 5492) on :

You can't make a satisfactory substitute for Red Lobster cheese biscuits without the garlic, though.

Posted by saxon75 (Member # 4589) on :

::ignores Icarus::

Posted by Icarus (Member # 3162) on :

hmm. I love garlic, but I have never detected it in Red Lobster cheese biscuits. I'd be happy to start adding it, though. [Smile]

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

The Red Lobster Cheese Biscuit addicts are still waiting for Farmgirl's recipe. [Big Grin]
