Lobster Mac and Cheese

After the first time I made this Publick House Mac and Cheese, I knew I’d be making it again soon. With lobster. As I mentioned, Hubby loves when The Publick House has this special on their menu and I wanted to recreate it for him.

I decided to get pre-cooked lobster meat instead of cooking the lobsters myself. I headed over to Wulf’s Fish Market where they did the hard work for me. I did have to wait for the lobster meat to be removed from the freshly cooked lobsters, so I ran other errands and came back for it. I got two lobsters worth of meat which came out to about 3/4 of a pound.

I mixed the lobster in to 1/3 of the mac and cheese that this recipe makes. I actually made a whole batch of the mac and cheese and used part of it for this Lobster Mac and Cheese and I mixed roasted vegetables into the rest of it.

Lobster Mac and Cheese

Lobster pairs perfectly with this subtle creamy mac and cheese

Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients:

1/3 batch of mac and cheese
meat from 2 lobsters (~3/4 lb of meat)

Directions:

Make mac and cheese according to this recipe but do not bake it. Either only make 1/3 of the original recipe, or make the entire recipe and scoop out 1/3 of the mac and cheese.

Stir the cooked lobster meat in to the mac and cheese prior to baking at 350F for 20 minutes.

    Definitely showing “nerd” boyfriend this. He’ll probably run right over to Trader Joe’s after work. Great catch!

    This is too funny! I haven’t been to TJ’s in a while so I’ve missed the Avocado’s Magic Number. Great find and thanks for sharing!

    My non-nerd g/f sent this to me to see if I’d understand the reference. I’m an EE, so I started laughing as soon as I saw the picture. 🙂 Luckily, I’m used to her odd looks when I start chuckling over something geeky like that. 🙂
