Red Lobster and Flavor Flav are back at it.
After helping the restaurant chain announce the return of Crabfest last month, the Public Enemy rapper has teamed up with the company once again, this time to cook up a signature meal, Red Lobster announced Monday.
The meal features Maine Lobster Tail, Snow Crab Legs, Garlic Shrimp Scampi and Bacon Mac & Cheese, plus the choice of one side, according to a news release from the seafood restaurant chain.
The meal, called Flavor Flav's Faves, is an off-menu item, according to Red Lobster, meaning it will not appear on printed menus. Customers should ask their server for the Flavor Flav's Faves if they want to order the meal. Customers can get the meal now at Red Lobster locations nationwide for a limited time.
“As a long-time Red Lobster fan, I’m fired up to bring a little bit of my own flavor to fans with a meal featuring my seafood favorites,” said Flavor Flav in the news release. “You gotta get to Red Lobster and give it a try because this signature meal is hype, boy!"

Rapper Flavor Flav on a mission to save Red Lobster
The rapper went viral on social media in June when he ordered every item on the Red Lobster menu in an attempt to help the seafood chain, which has recently filed for bankruptcy and closed dozens of restaurants.
“When the internet says Red Lobster is going away, boy, Flavor Flav says not today,” he said in a 30-second clip, referencing viral post on X about ordering the entire menu. Flav said at the time he was trying to "help save one of America's greatest dining dynasties."
"When you have someone like Flavor Flav who shows their love for a brand by ordering the entire menu, you know there is a lot more fun to be had,” said Sara Bittorf, Chief Experience Officer at Red Lobster, in the news release Monday. “Flavor Flav’s passion for Red Lobster is unmatched and we’re excited to bring our guests a flavor experience unlike any other.”
