Well let's hear them. List what type of vessel you work on as well might be intresting to see if certain foods trend with types of vessels and areas of work.

Tug boat-Pacific Northwest

Baked halibut with a dungeness crab fettchini was prob one of the best meals I've had. Something bout catching your own food too.

OSV GOM

Everything laid out on seafood Fridays, fried shrimp to seafood gumbo.

[injunear]

Any kind of shellfish, fried, stirfried, gumbo, chowder, cakes or bisque.

Standing rib roast with steamed asparagus. Also shrimp and crab stuffed baked potato.

Tuna, wahoo, snapper, or ling sashmi.

Portuguese fish stew made with mahi.

Fried snapper throats.

I spent 2 years in South and Central America. Some offerings were just scarey. My favorites were:
In Brazil was grilled squid steaks with plantains. Breakfast was eggs and flying fish fillets cooked on the griddle
.
In Colombia was sancocho de tortuga.

The last cook I sail with could cook but chose to serve prefabricated shit, sespool raised shrimp and would not fry fish....the horror....

Harbor tug NOLA (1985)
The engineer had a weber smoker on deck. He smoked a turkey for Thanksgiving.
As we went down the river our other company boats asked if we were on fire!

I've sailed with some outstanding cooks. One cook i sailed with carrying heating oil from Corpus to Portland for several winters cooked the best cold weather food. He made sourdough bread every day. Standard fare in port would be home made tomato soup or split pea soup with sourdough crutons or grilled ham and cheese sandwitches. Seafood chowder with shrimp, clams, scallops, crab and oysters. The smell of it alone would instigate an onslaught of the gout!
