Menu Choices Redux

Pendragon's post below has received little discussion. We begin in a week (or less). We need a little work on this.

Where are we?
Comments:
I'm in favor of large quantities of red meat, beer, wine, gin, scotch, other appropriate booze groups, dairy products of all kinds and we'll fill in the rest with seafood, fowl and some roughage to keep it all moving.

How's that sound?

I'll bring the Metamucil.
 
How about lobster for our fish course this year? We can get lives ones down in Morro Bay I think.
 
Would we grill the lobsters? I have some Bobby Flay recipes.
 
Yes, I think we could grill the lobster, though it they are live lobsters, it might be hard to keep them from squirming on the grate, so boiling might be better. We could grill some shrimp as an accompaniment. Or some small steaks for surf n turf (or is that too 70s cliche??)
 
Killing a lobster is actually quite simple. A butcher's knife right between the eyes usually does it.

A shrimp appetizer on the grill any night could work. (It might even redeem the scallops with miso sauce last year.)
 
Or a quick boil to kill them, then finished off on the grill.
