boil in big pot
Fill a stock pot about 2/3 full of water and add about 1/2 cup of salt. Bring to a hard boil. Remove the bindings from the lobsters claws and put it into the boiling water. Cover and leave for about 12 minutes. Remove pot from heat and put in sink and run cold water into it for about 5 minutes. Then he's done! MMMMmmmm!
there are as many ways to cook a lobster as there are ways to cook chicken, but the most common way is to boil it in a bath of what ever concoction that you see fit, i have seen them boiled in a salt water bath, a beer bath, a bath of herbs and water, it all depends on your taste and of your guests.


as long as there is a good amount of butter and lemon available and the lobster hasn't been over cooked, then it is all good.
In a Big ol Stock pot of Boiling Water
endless possibilities...boil, steam...steam for 3 minutes then smoke it to cook it through, BBQ,
Big pot of boiling water, I like to cut the rubberbands from the claws, sometimes if you leave them on, you get a rubber taste on the lobster. Place the lobster head first into the boiling water, boil for about 15 minutes. Remove from water and place in ice bath to stop the cooking

Boiled Lobster





Bring a large pot of water to a good strong boil. Drop the lobsters in (head first to avoid splashing). You can add salt to the water, if you desire. Time the lobsters from the time you put them in the pot, not from the time the water comes back to a boil.
