Lobster or Prime Rib

[Stein]

With all the holiday food talk, I thought this would be fun.  Ture Prime rib roast and live Maine lobster are roughly the same cost, so which would you go for?  Not for a holiday meal that has tradition, which would you go for based on satisfaction only?

I am making both.
I don't see that option, so I did not vote.

Between the two, I personally would opt for the prime rib. That said, a guy could go with an adequately sized prime rib and steam a few of those smaller lobsters. A very good surf and turf. I’m a huge fan of another side to the rib roast, AK king crabs but that’s not gonna happen with the golden prices on the the AK crab right now  :'(

I'll always take the prime rib first. Pretty much all shellfish is a surf & turf or side option to the main protein. Very seldom eat a meal that is shellfish centered.

Wow big money.  We will stick with elk loin.

Lobster is so good and light.

nothing beats true prime ribs done right. Lobster is awesome but it is not red dead and grass fed. imho

[X-Force]

Prime rib done right is hard to beat but I haven’t had lobster in a couple years… so my vote was easy.

[longtrails]

Both are great and i havent had either in years, so yes pls to both on my plate.

[huntnphool]

 Both!

Lobster all day! But elk steaks for the win!

[wheels1]

Prime rib all day may add different surf like shrimp or crab

[boneaddict]

Both!

Wow big money.  We will stick with elk loin.

I would make the case that's the even more expensive option 

I say prime rib, lobster always seems a little light for a main dish, but I've never turned one down when offered.

Gotta go with prime grade boneless prime rib using the rock salt method with Montreals seasoning.
