Poor Man's Lobster! Recipe #1

As per our rules, we got together today to cook and eat our cusk, the recipe we chose was "Poor Man's Lobster"  we chose this because it's easy and we really liked the sound of it. In fact Poor Man's lobster is a common name for cusk.

I filleted the cusk at home and had it ready to go, the recipe was simple and the results were outstanding!

Ingredients:

Cusk cut into 1 inch pieces
Water
Red Wine Vinegar
Salt
Garlic
Butter
Using Gary our camp stove we boiled salt water and a dash of redwine vinegar, once that was at a rolling boil we dropped the cusk in.

While the cusk was cooking (2 minutes) we melted some butter in another pan with some garlic and salt.

Then we ate the poor man's lobster dipped in the melted butter and garlic and to our delight it tasted just like lobster! The texture was a little more tender but the flavor was almost perfect!
