July 3rd. Storms cane through and nearly messed up dinner but we threw up the canopy and got it done. T-bones on sale, wifey poached some lobsta tails, grilled spuds. Fireflies, fireworks, and rain keeping me company.

Now that's a big steak; makes the tail look like a shrimp.
But why poach? Next time put it on the grill too. I love grilled lobster.
I think we have more fireflies than usual this year. Maybe all the rain.
 
That's a fine plate of food!! Firedlies bring back great childhood memories
 
Fine lookin plate 👍
Thanks!

Yeah, they were a nice size, The weather threw off the timeline, I was going to grill the lobster, my wife said let me just poach em - ok! 4-5oz tails, cold water get rm from local grocery store for $5 each. Hardly everyday fare but nice on occasion. I think we get the fireflies cuz no one in the neighborhood treats their lawns much with pesticides n such.
Looks awesome . I haven't seen fireflies around here in forever .
Nice cook .

Somebody put the T-bone label on the Porterhouse .
Haha, it was t-bone/porterhouse 8.98. I dug through and found the porters😉

Thanks, love the fireflies 👍
 
That T-Bone looks fabulous. I do love lobster but I would push that aside for the bone
 
WOW!!!
Absolutely love them both.
When I used to deer hunt, the northern boarder of CA, the fireflies were always a treat. I haven't seen them in many years, they are cool little critters.
 
'Merica Nough said. Ok I hate that phrase. Let's go America. What a beautiful dinner.
Thanks!

Thanks! Oh, and when I said “poached” lobsta, my wife poaches them in butter and beer ;)

Yeah, I love seeing them around. When that first really hot humid night in June arrives they just pop out.
 
Nice looking steaks!

I like your idea. I think tonight is T-bone night. It'll go nicely with the fresh corn we just picked up. Maybe a pilaf to go with it. Now where did I put that box of Rice-A-Roni? :emoji_wink:
 
Great looking steak! Yeah Fireflies around aren't as populated as they were when I was a kid but I'm fortunate to have them here at my place. Those and Horny Toads have all but disappeared.

Never seen a Horny Toad, they don’t like the snow, lol!
Steak and plate looks great!
Thanks!
Yes'sir, that's worth a big, "Hell Yeah!."

Yep, I saw the pics and thought, "Them is Porterhouse not mere T-bones.
I love the larger tenderloin.
Thanks Chile! Ha, “T-bones n fireflies” just sounded like a better title 😉. My wife goes for the tenderloin due to digestive issues. I clean mine whole both sides to the bone 🦴
 
That's a fine looking plate of goodies! I like the firefly pic also! Noticed last night coming home how many fireflies were in the ditches.

NEVER SEEN A FIREFLY BUT I LOVE THAT PLATE, NICE WORK!
 
OK..................this is starting to sound like an old country song; "T-Bones n' Fireflies, and wild wild women, they'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane" :emoji_laughing: :emoji_laughing:
