I have been a dirt-side work-crew cook for years. I am going offshore in a few weeks. What are your favorite onboard meals?
I can’t imagine there would be any differences, but it couldn’t hurt to ask.

The corned beef on my last boat was pretty good 🙂

Bacon egg and cheese sandwich on the bridge during long maneuvers has always been one of my favs.

I am a big fan of casseroles. Easy to cook, portion control not an issue, economical, and leftovers easy to reheat if the guy on watch gets hunger pangs at 0300.

My tugboat breakfast sandwich is a bagel toasted with cream cheese, and then scrambled eggs in between.

Used to have good fried chicken around 0300 when mate on NY harbor tugs…next thing you know a few other boats were alongside chowing down when word got out. Man that was tasty stuff and always a fun time.
Otherwise I like to smoke some ribs when I know we have a few days of downtime, potato salad etc. And of course take-out pizza crewchange day!

In 1981, I got a job on a Tidewater Supply boat as an OS, the very first meal was Corndogs and baked beans over rice.
Being a Yankee, I was facinated by this dish. It is still a fine memory. To say it is my fav is a stretch, but memory wise it is.
My fav is spagetti (the way it is made in cajun land) and a good salad

Usually when I go ashore to eat. The ship I work on the food is terrible.
