I watch every one of your videos, Brian, even the ones I know I'll never make (this one - allergies!) because I always learn some technique or something that I can use in another recipe. You're a great teacher!
@@chrishewitt4220 Have you checked any local Asian grocers? They might have something close laying around, or things like shrimp paste/oyster sauce/etc that you can convert into a kinda-sorta equal flavor. You probably wouldn't want to use pickled mussels, but I guess if you can find clams/mussels that were canned and cooked in can that would be very close. Also, if you haven't checked yet, any major spirits/liquor store has a decent chance of having it somewhere, it's used in a few kinds of mixed drinks. You could also always make them from scratch (probably like 1lb/500g cleaned fresh or frozen clams/mussels and 40oz/1.3L water (whatever covers them a bit) and a strong pinch of salt for the briny flavor).
@@chrishewitt4220Usually find clam juice in the canned fish aisle around the tuna & clams etc and sometimes around the canned beans even though it's sold in glass bottles but it helps make it easier to spot!
Hey Brian, just made Bisque tonight for the first time ever. It's with my belly full and joy on my face that I came here to report how AWESOME your recipe is. :D Since it was a first I tried the shrimp version but oh man it was so good !!! Infusing the butter with the shells was my favorite step :P Thanks a lot for this great recipe :) I'll add this one to my collection. (Your chili is also one that I absolutely love).
Nice recipe. Lobster is kind of a big thing here in Nova Scotia - I always have a mess of shells stashed in the freezer to make a base for chowders and bisque. One tip I would suggest for those unfamiliar with cleaning a lobster tail: you have to take out the “dirt track.” I noticed yours didn’t appear to have an obvious one, probably because it spent time in a pound before it was sold. But freshly caught lobsters always have a dirt track. You don’t want to be eating that or putting it in your bisque.
I love it when you simplify luxurious dishes for us. Your sauces and spreads have added so much to my game this past year also. I can't tell you how many times I have made your Olive Garden or Russian Dressing. Thanks Bri
I’m an old-ish person new-ish to TH-cam. I like your style, your sensibilities, straight-forward procedures, professional background, and that you also occasionally bake. :) Great end combo, very appealing recipes. Yesterday was a day off for me, and it was your channel I watched while puttering around the house with life’s chores and pleasures on a stay-inside kind of snowy day. Aside from your cooking, it’s refreshing to see a good marriage.
Just made this for tonite's dinner. Used frozen shell-on easy peel shrimp so prep was easy - didn't need to devein the shrimp. Made as instructed except 1 addition - a large sprig of fresh thyme in the 15 minute veggie simmering time. Pulled it out before adding the cream and blending. It tastes amazing. Making a batch of cheese biscuits to go with the soup. Perfect.
Brian, I really appreciate the emphasis you put on salt in home cooking and the importance of tasting your food for seasoning. I have a hard time eating at most people's houses because 90% of the time they don't even come close to the proper salt level. Anyways, cheers!
Preach LC. Pot luck dish suckage is almost 80% attributable to under seasoned food.... And I get it, people don't want to over salt for mass audiences, but honestly if your food is seasoned correctly it will be delicious, not salty.
I made this with crab instead of lobster since it was on sale at my grocer and it came out absolutely amazing! My roommates and bf all loved it and said that it was better than any restaurant bisque they've had. I cant wait to try it with lobster next time. Thank you for the incredible recipe Brian!
Love your channel. Love your style. REALLY loved the salting segment where the music and voiceover cut out and you coached us right on camera. That was awesome.
Crabbing season in Seattle just opened and I made this recipe with 4 Red Rock crabs I caught. I had to scale down the amount of shells I used but it turned out insanely delicious! I’m a huge fan of your recipes and have made quite a few of them. Thank you for the content!!
I’ve seen almost all of your videos (which are awesome) and mostly just used them for tips, but I made this one by your book for my mom’s birthday. Jackpot, man! Everybody loved it. Thank you.
I’m soo proud of you Bri, finally receiving the subs you always deserved. Been following since roughly 700,000 subs and still love the vids. Bisque looked great ill be trying this
Wow Iv never made this before looks delicious the lobster shells in butter and olive how brilliant!! Or using shrimp instead can't wait to cook your amazing!!
I was ecstatic when Brian mentioned that lobster can be replaced by shrimps (Eastern Europe is not exactly big on lobster, and fresh shrimps are possible but not easy to obtain), but then he moved to the clam juice and BTB...... Not a possibility here :/ I am so hooked on the recipe, that I will probably make some shrimp stock (thrifty frozen shrimp shells over several shrimp taco batches!) and some homemade chicken stock! Thank you! I am excited already!
Shrimp stock will work fine. I think Bri used the clam juice since it's easy to find in the US and a good shortcut that avoids the 'make a fish stock' step.
Knorr has a lobster bullion cube that I was able to get from Amazon in Canada. See if your local carries it. It is made in Portugal and other than being carried by salt is sure packs a savory, unidentifiable but good fish background.
@@metaxaanabeer I have bought shrimp stock cubes (from Asia) and it's terrible - pure salt no sea-food related, and Knorr fish stock from Portugal and Italy. But I am not sure if fish stock would not mess up the delicate flavour of shrimp... Thanks for the tip thou :)
I've made this recipe twice now (shrimp with BtB Lobster both times) and it is truly something special. I've had bad lobster bisque (too much brandy made the soup bitter) at a very nice, very expensive restaurant but this is very good bisque that costs very little. I eagerly await the next time we have family over so that they too can experience this majesty.
I have viewed 20 lobster bisque videos for an easy recipe. This is by far the best recipe, I've seen. Now I'm going to head over to the deli and buy some already made ❤
Wow. This guy just said 99 percent of the people who watch his videos are to stupid to cook a live lobster. It feels good to finally be part of the 1 percent.
Did this with shrimp last night, though I used more shrimp and half the butter. Still slapped, and slapped hard. Brian has become my favorite chef on TH-cam. I routinely cook his weeknight recipes and they never miss.
I have been working on a sourdough starter and finally had time to make my first loaf. I was trying to figure out what to have with it when this video popped up! Love it, Brian! Used both the ‘my first sourdough’ and this bisque recipe. Chef’s kiss!
I LOVE this channel !! Another great learning experience for me and a recipe I will make ! So many little techniques and tricks of the trade that are added to my skillset. Thank you brian !!
Bri, you always deliver - thanks. Lobster bisque has always been in the “too complicated for this kid” category, but your version looks do-able, but still special. I’ll definitely try it. Happy new year!
I have made bisque before using shrimp shells. However, I did blend everything...shells and all, then put everything through a strainer. Sauteing in butter and using only the infused butter is intriguing. It would be interesting to compare the flavour of one vs the other. Thanks for your video. I really enjoy watching them.
I aboslutely LOVE that you made a "poor-man's" version of one of my favorite dishes! It's what made me sub to your channel in the first place long ago.
Like the engine who could, Brian with his keep it simple, flavor forward style, has surpassed all the other cooking TH-camrs with their fancy kitchens, and crazy editing. Brian is a Chefs, Chef 💪🏽
This video is EXACTLY what I needed! I've always wanted to try my hand at making lobster bisque, but as you said, sourcing, killing, and breaking down a live lobster to make it is a little much. I'll definitely have to try this one!
Hi Bri! Great video: January feels like the perfect time to cover soup recipes. If you’re interested in luxurious tasting fish soups, but with slightly less expensive ingredients, take a look at the Scottish classic Cullen Skink; smoked haddock, potatoes and onions in a creamy broth - really delicious!
Love your videos, Bri! I wish you would've included a little Brandy/Sherry though. For the lobster garnish, I would've gently and quickly warmed the pieces of lobster in a small saucepan of brown butter before plating.
For those who want to make a more hearty lobster bisque with more meat, I add crawfish for a budget friendly alternative. I've done this so many times I almost like it better. I save lobster tails during the season that are large and freeze them to boil down for a rich stock and always use heavy cream, never half n half!
That looks really good. My own recipe is quite similar, since live lobster isn't even available around here. Neither are lobster tails, or any raw lobster, for that matter. Only precooked frozen crustaceans. Clam juice isn't a thing either. I do my best, but Knorr's bottled lobster fond is pretty much indispensable. Anyway, a different serving suggestion is to whip up a mayo heavily flavoured with lobster fond, splat a big dollop on the bottom of the bowl and heap with lobster pieces, then pour the soup around. I picked that up from a truly excellent mushroom soup I had at a conference, but I think that was a bearnaise with mushroom powder.
My wife LOVES Lobster Bisque and I can't wait to try this recipe out and wow her! Thanks for all your hard work in bringing us all these wonderful recipes!
Update...made this tonight and was absolutely restaurant quality and delicious! My wife said every bit as good as nice restaurant we go to for special occasions...and she gave me an A+! Thanks Brian for another excellent recipe for home chefs!
Amazing technique 🤝. The only thing I would change is adding rice to the soup instead of flour. It enhances the texture of the finished dish and is gluten free as well.

That's a cracking recipe. I do cook 'classic' bisque but once in a blue moon 'cos it's such a faff. This looks 90% there for 30% effort. That's efficiency!
Made it, really good, my tails were a bit on the small side. Had a bit of bisque left over, froze it to add some simmered shrimp at a later date (my 14yo loved it, so I call that a win!).
Bri, you should be commended for recommending products that you aren't sponsored by. Of course, these products should sponsor you given your conviction in their offerings, rather than just paying any old TH-camr for a fake endorsement.

Crawdads would work too if it's mudbug season! It's winter, even in Texas and Louisiana, so the crawdads hunker down and hibernate when it's cold. It supposed to snow here in east Texas on Monday. YIKES!
Any chance you might have a killer Key Lime Pie up your sleeve, Bri? Could use a slice of warm sunshine on a plate for the frosty months to keep my spirits high!
We made this today. About $100 in ingredients and took us about 3 hours to make. Super delicious, but wow it made a lot. Next time we'll cut the recipe in half for a family of 4.
Brian actually wanting us to make his recipes instead of just putting on some show is what locked me to his channel ❤
Just wish i had all his tools and cookware
Fair warning - if you put it in the Vitamix. Please put just 1/4 in at a time. Pressure builds quickly when you add hot fluids to your mixers.

Excellent timing! I bought 4 lobster tails this morning. Have everything but the clam juice, heading back to the store now. Thanks Bri!
Enjoy it!
I've never managed to find clam juice here in NSW, Oz! Could I get some mussels in a jar and use the pickle water?

You can find Harry Lewis's original recipe online somewhere. Hamburger Hamlet's Lobster Bisque was a favourite of mine for 50+ years.
