[ThatEpicGuy101]

chef john can i do this with crabs as well? we dont usually have lobster in the fridge

[anianiiii]

@ThatEpicGuy101 But having leftover lobster happens all the time! ;P Jk, jk.

I'm sure you can do it with crab, it'll still be delicious.

[ThatEpicGuy101]

@anianiiii lol. well its cuz i live in the phil (province part) and we dont usually eat lobster ^.^

[anianiiii]

@ThatEpicGuy101 You actually got me curious and I tried today with crab instead of lobster xD

It was really good! :D

[ThatEpicGuy101]

@anianiiii ahaha. well satisfying one's curiosity is one of my many talents ;p did u do the same recipe for the eggs or did u change it a bit

[anianiiii]

@ThatEpicGuy101 I used the same recipe :D

[JonO387]

Leftover anything is great in scrambled eggs.

[JustAnotherCapie]

i personally hate lobster and pretty much all other seafood. my dad is the captain of his fishing boat/owner of his company and they catch fish and lobsters during the respective seasons. i hate how it smells, i hate how it tastes. its actually a very common food here. he'll come home with a bag of lobsters and boil them and then whatever anybody wants is ate and the rest is thrown into a bowl to have whenever. cream lobster, muddled lobster, sandwiches, with eggs like shown here, or plain cold

[DePerson1231]

what if I have leftover scrambled eggs and no lobster?

[thomja1]

Who the hell has left over lobsters?

[HyperTheProfessor]

You know, Ive been told that since I dont like just regular scrambled eggs.. that if I scramble them and mix them with other foods that I would enjoy eggs more..

This sounds like a great way to introduce eggs :3

[FreakoManiacXD]

O.O

[relafen66]

i had leftover failure lobster but my eggs don't want to associate themselves with my failure lobsters so i just had oyster egg instead.

[mesahusa]

no such thing as leftover lobster..

[PalaisCristalLLC]

Chef John your commentators are hilarious. lol

[Studjeff4]

I am eating lobster as I watch this

[amnch07]

YOU'VE HAD LEFT-OVER LOBSTERS TWICE!?!?!?

[mikestrapps]

Who knew that George Costanza wasn't the only one that put lobster in his scrambled eggs?

[MsCrayonz]

foodgasm.

[mitchfurmanlaw]

Will try this tomorrow morning with my leftover lobster. This looks awesome.

[nikisha10001]

I couldn't make this dish cause I would never have left overs when it comes to lobster

[fedesartorio]

Thumbs up if you ever had leftover lobster

[azndude3600]

This isn't Kosher!!

[bluetextonwhitebg]

@azndude3600 Uh, what exactly made you think he's a kosher chef??

[azndude3600]

@bluetextonwhitebg Seinfeld reference.

[daddyV88]

the eggs are too runny for me...but i might try it next time i have 'leftover' lobster

[MrLaith95]

yeah cause i always have leftover lobster ...

[kimonorose14]

Ok, George Costanza ;) I've always wanted to try this!

[LadyLatias]

Could we do this with crab as well?

[MsOutspokenOutcast]

I like my eggs more "hard" as my dad would describe it whenever I cooked scrambled eggs for him. I don't like the Runnyness so do you think this will taste just as good with that texture?

[missy07yashy]

@MsOutspokenOutcast yh sure why not, but i'd lobster like 2 mins into the cooking so that u dont over cook it :) hope that helps

[Koreansforthewin]

Chef John, why do I always watch your videos while I'm hungry then try to cook and realize I can't cook then go back to watching your videos and continue being hungry?

[gekaizer]

I haven't been there... I'm a student :(

[SealDogification]

this is not much of a sensible thing lobster scrambled eggs the eggs really take out the unque flavor of the lobsters, i say with leftover lobsters its betters to make a lobster salad or some dumplings or lobster cakes

[RamSama]

Did Kramer teach you this?

[aimanasrafroslan]

@TheOther12345 lol...made my day. :)

[choidj]

Seinfeld!

[BettinaBalser]

Food pornography. Plain and simple.  *SLOBBER*

[nm7kneeslapper]

Loved your usage of the word theory

not really

[acmulhern]

i put my leftover lobster in a sandwich. i'm so sick of lobster sandwich, you have saved my life

[BlueCrystalGem]

Kramer made it in the Hamptons.

[tulip2111]

@BlueCrystalGem This is exactly what I thought too! lol. Seinfeld.

[elijahpryor]

If you can't cook scrambled eggs, then you need help lol

[mingcai]

i tried this with crab meat and it was still pretty awsome

[leftysergeant]

Sort of looks like you could do this with crab as well.  THAT I can catch locally.

[Nannonful]

I have left-over lobster fairly often. I have never thought of scrambling them with egg before. Usually I just make up a salad or mornay.

Also, I'm not rich (fairly poor actually), we just catch them ourselves. Delicious.

[ruiz1707]

mouthwatering!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PlatypusKitchen]

What about all of those other left overs that people usually have in the refridgerator such as the Russian Black Caviar and foie gras? Have you got a recipe for those too? Oh the dilema of what to do with all these scraps.

[faithlessbelievr]

Nice idea ... looks delicious ... where do i get leftover lobster? :)

[TheBellaTenenbaum]

Omg i want to jump into that hot pan and lay there all day.

[amoep]

Cook it with garlic butter and throw some chives in.... ammaaazing

[weshasawi]

no milk with the eggs?

[snaggypaggy]

What does chef John do for a living?

[Cannibalriot]

Lobster is cheap as chips where I live.

Come on up to the forgotten province of New Brunswick Canada this summer folks. Lobster by the shopping bag full fresh off the Richibucto or Kouchibouguac wharf, $20.00 - still snapping! It's worth the trip for that alone, and the scallops, my goodness they are incredible!

We had lobster for Christmas and I posted a little video of them on my channel, cost us very little for them; check it out for your self.

[christelcrow]

Chef John, in these days when I can barely afford to drive because gas prices are through the roof, when I'm lucky to include a can of decent tuna in my daily menu?

You post a video that makes use of left-over lobster?!?

WTF is a lobster? Poor and/or arrogant timing.

Dissapointing.

But if it makes you feel better?

You are neck in neck with Jon Stewart who was also a bitter dissapointment this week.

So two of my favourite media fellas failed to deliver and left me feeling worse than ever.

[i5318008]

@christelcrow And I suppose Rolls Royce should stop advertising their product until there are no more people in world living on less than $1 a day.

[XuBlax]

@christelcrow through the roof? my friend you have no idea how good you have it, here in the UK we pay nearly triple your gas/petrol prices, there ya go now you have something to feel a little better about =p

And chef john amazing food as always

[saturday7142007]

You don't have to be rich to buy lobster, get off your lazy asses and get a better job or go back to school... it's not hard if you try enough.

[LadyofWar1980]

@saturday7142007 Yeah...I'm sure folks will "get a better job or go back to school" just to eat some damn lobster.

[colomblanco]

Sounds delicious, those were some pretty big chunks though, I'd probably just eat them.

[narutoSU8D]

im so poor i dont even own the wifi im using hell this is the home depot computor

[Cenotaff]

Scrambled eggs, the only reason when a yolk should ever be hardish :)

Great vid, looked awesome.

[upandenergy]

Wait a minute, you've had enough leftover lobster to try this recipe more than once? Can you pay for my college too?

[afroskullsoftware]

22222

[ksenos69]

Leftover lobster? Eggs, manytimes. Almost to chicken.

[apetheape9]

eggs look undone, ew i like it fully cooked unless its sunny side up

[1DreamWalker]

@apetheape9 That's the correct way to make scrambled eggs, it's not undone, everything is cooked thoroughly.

[kha0sg0tt]

@apetheape9

yeah that's salmonella waiting to happen, but great idea! must try this today!

[henkdevries111]

can do this with leftover veggies as well, tastes great with anything really :P

[wallace8us]

I have leftover lobster every 30 years or so...I am more than happy to try this recipe in 2032

[clicheisticSPAZZ]

why keep leftover lobster? In our house, we throw them away. =|

[MegaMangageek]

@clicheisticSPAZZ Why throw them away? I eat as much lobster as I can get my hands on.

[clicheisticSPAZZ]

@MegaMangageek Obviously, you didn't get my point.

[MegaMangageek]

@clicheisticSPAZZ whatever

[pathofclouds85]

Some people still don't get Chef John's sense of humour

[ramenx2]

i think instead of tarragon you could've put in some left over caviar, and instead of coffee maybe that bottle of unfinished Chardonnay?

Now where'd my servant go

[djamorpheus]

Anything with egg is majestic!

[UnTioLlamadoLalo]

i would love to see the chef john recipe for "leftover surprise cake", of course with leftover lobster as main ingredient

[PTZ72]

For those that didn't get it, "leftover lobster" was a joke.  He's not suggesting you're peasants if you can't afford to have leftover lobster.

[Modified67]

Sounds AMAZING.

[PepsiiiTwiSt]

ROFL the two top comments are so hilarious

[ApitoPR2]

that egg is undercooked man.

[HockeyDiane]

@ApitoPR2 if you cook egg at a lower heat and keep it moving you get real scrambled eggs.. none of that rubbery crap you get most places.

[SvAcAde]

@ApitoPR2 Maybe to your liking. imo scrambled egg should be fluffy, not that rubber turd you get on most breakfast menus.

[dalton9931]

what the hell chef john, do you think were rich or something? who in the hell can afford eggs

[iDoopy]

@dalton9931 ROFL



[AndreaInternauta]

@dalton9931 thanks dude! you made my day! ;D

[Arteolike]

@dalton9931 HAHAHAHAHAHAH XD!

[elijahpryor]

@dalton9931 i really hope that's sarcasm... eggs are way too cheap to NOT have in the fridge.

[IAreMean]

@elijahpryor Maybe you should become more fluent in sarcasm.

[dalton9931]

@elijahpryor ...really? cmon, i would think a 4 year old could understand that joke.

[abbeykins4ever]

@elijahpryor wow, you are actually so insensitive. some of us are not rolling in money like you and did not grow up privileged enough to have eggs in their fridge all the time. all i had to eat was leftover lobster.

[DeePhlat]

@abbeykins4ever We never had Famous Amos cookies and could only afford the off brand Heinous Anus

[NinjaMcNinjaNinja]

@abbeykins4ever The ironic thing is lobster really DID use to be a poor man's food.

[bradleasays]

@NinjaMcNinjaNinja congrats, you read cracked.com

[NinjaMcNinjaNinja]

@bradleasays congrats, you read my comment

[MarciNoExcess]

@dalton9931 made my day, lol!

[yellowman88]

@dalton9931 funniest comment i've red in awhile lol

[samirah5803]

@dalton9931 I can't stop laughing this is seriously funny :)

[PalaisCristalLLC]

@dalton9931 hilarious lol

[seraphxl18]

little bit of toast,some champagne with diamonds on it..and you have the perfect average american breakfast done!

[lunarheart14]

Hm. I normally give my leftover lobster to my servants...

[BoogieWithStew]

Too wet for me, looks a tad slimy.

[sfservice75]

did you get this idea from George Costanza?? lol

[AiOrikasa]

this looks yummy lol ppls comments about the leftover lobster is hilarious xD

[kukuness]

I never have left over lobster.. it's way too good.

[ntlove16]

I love LOBSTER! :P

[Punkylolita]

OMG I'm a seafood freak, thank you <3

[Gingervention]

Chef John you should do a series about what you can do with leftovers! I think it'd be pretty cool. Thumbs up if you agree!

[Smiilez03]

@Gingervention that's a good idea!

[LilPrinces5]

I got left over lobsters but no eggs.

Im cool

[RammerDForce]

hahaha these comments are priceless!

[RoyalGreenTea]

I just clicked on this video to say how ridiculous is it to have LEFTOVER lobster.

[PlatypusGuitar]

Im thinking of turning this recipe into a frittata and cook my potatoes in garlic butter and serve it with a tomato brunoise and some brie chaud and crispy baguette. My mom is very lucky to have to think up shit like that for mothers day.

[KiroToru]

i have lobster like once a year how the eff does anyone have leftovers :'(

[Memoria777]

Whatever it may taste like, it looks like vomit...sorry.

[68trace]

leftover lobster.........never happens......ever.......shame on you if you have leftover lobster!!

[lagatia86]

never heard of leftover lobster...i can't afford lobster as it is, let alone have enough for the next day :)

[fashionablyiate]

why would there be leftover lobster anyways?



[gryphon50]

I never would have guessed how truly cruel a man you are.

[zwap12]

Lobsters have eggs??

[bukanika]

I want to be your leftover container :P

[Damoskinos]

Road Kill anyone?

[Damoskinos]

Could I use "roadkill" as an alternative food source?

I'm thinking a "Badger Smoothie"

[thelastnewb]

You're basically Alton Brown Jr.

[madrabiddog]

Interestingly enough; the only time I've had left over lobster was in Iraq =(

[jafarhie]

who has left over lobster sitting in the fridge?

[mushykiss09]

38 people are vegetarians. boo!

[HOLLAHfoDOLLAH]

@mushykiss09 Vegan is the word. Because many vegetarians do eat some seafood.

[8927653]

I never have lobster leftover.. ;0

[infusedpizza]

yummy dee doo

[wehavebecome1]

Chef John was the first person that ever tried to combine the words leftover and lobster

[Ziegut]

@za1565 *appaulse*

[Andy40004]

Omg... not again... :(( .... i had foodgasm!

[Lin612]

Breakfast of kings

[alexyelle28]

I do this with shrimps or prawns. It's called Foo yang in my country.

[rusPiglets]

*leftover lobster*

-Problem, viewer?

[aeee0]

i used leftover crab 

[brandonall]

Do you cook this meal with a stack of burning 100 dollar bills?

[EctoFilms]

Leftover lobster exists?.. I've never had leftover lobster.. I've had lobster gone in one sitting but never leftover lobster.

[cowmancheese]

Thanks chef!

[imsoocho]

it's a sin to have leftover lobster.

[Fabio9x]

looks like ají de gallina with lobster

[ArizonaGinseng]

Hi, my family & I never use butter in any of our cooking/food. Is there anything that can sub. for butter? Because you mentioned using butter in the video.

[ksayfreeze]

@ArizonaGinseng you can scramble without using any oil, but you need to put a very low heat and constantly stiring. Sometimes if it gets too hot, take the pan off the heat and stir until you get similar consistency in the video

[sibigkid1234]

HEY TRUMP IF U GET TO B PREZ DECLARE LOBSTER 4 ALLAS A CELEBRATION FOR UR 5000000000000000 BUILDING......................­.......the trump house

[i5318008]

Poor man's version: use crab meat instead.

Student's version: use tinned (drained) crabbed meat instead.

[Isiena]

I'm allergic to lobster and lobster only.

[ajomehri]

it's been a few weeks I press thumbs up first and watch it after that

[zilverzero]

i have leftover lobster. i am Poseidon, king of the sea.

[nazziia]

I have leftover Turkey! more economical...!

[TheKaiserbun]

I leave my lobster next to my charlie sheen

[baboon500]

this reminds me of Cantonese lobster. We use eggs, but not as much.

[dreamangel6368]

macaroons!!!!!!!!!

[neurocosm]

I am purposely going to have left over Lobster. For this. EGGS!

[vanscoyoc]

I like bigger pieces of eggs, wouldn't like the texture.

[1kperday]

Can I make this without lobster? And eggs?

Kidding.

[BinarySounds]

Another piece of excellence by THE chef. Hats off to you sir. I can't wait for the next one.

[nyc0nyc]

im pretty sure he was being sarcastic...cant you hear his tone at the end when he says, "so the next time you have lobster lying around...i know, happens all the time"

[derpman909]

any one notice the url containing feed u

[kryptox666]

left over lobster sounds like a paradox

[hetlir]

This reminds me of that one Seinfeld episode

[hellojello49]

I NEED HELP I NEED SOMETHING TO MAKE FOR MOTHERS DAY I WANNA MAKE SOMETHING WITH CHOCOLATE AND SIMPLE BUT REALLY GOOD

[stargirlvictoria]

@hellojello49 look at his pot de creme video :)

[icdemfromafar]

@tempestloor needs a hug and some lobster scramble.

[icdemfromafar]

my cousin had left over crabs and he needed a prescription and a special comb to get rid of those

[cr8zy8s]

If you have this much "LEFTOVER LOBSTER" I would LOVE to eat at your place!!!
