Get Fancy with Four Courses of Matty

It's the weekend and odds are you've worked your ass off to make somebody else rich. As far as we're concerned, that means you've earned the right to cook a meal that will be as good as as what that rich person will eat at an ostentatious steakhouse, but at a fraction of the price.

And what better way to eat like royalty while staying humble than following the lead of The People's Chef, VICELAND (check your local listings) star Matty Matheson? Sure, you can make any of these recipes individually, but what you should really do is go all-in and prepare a weekend feast for the ages.

Nothing says, "We're about to eat really well" quite like a fresh lobster bisque made with sweet corn, sweet lobster meat, and sweet, sweet maple syrup. It's light and hearty at the same time and works well all year round—those crazy sea bugs taste good all year long.

Now that your appetite is properly whetted, it's time for more lobster—in a roll, covered in butter, with lots of creamy coleslaw on top. You deserve it.

Much like that lobster roll, this pan-fried rib-eye steak is perfect, which, in Matty's mind means prepared the French way: in a super hot pan, with garlic, thyme, and a shit-ton of butter. It's as deluxe as anything you'd find in a premium steakhouse, but without the bro-ey, old man vibe—unless your kitchen has a bro-ey, old man vibe, which is cool, too.

Time to tap into your reserve dessert stomach. This chocolate mousse is rich and light and and one of the few times you can use the word "mouthfeel" without sounding like a douchebag. You can even tap into your inner 90s chef and serve it in a martini glass. This is your fancy meal, you make the rules.
