steam it. it'll hold the flavor in better. i have to ask, are you muslim? you cant eat lobster can you?
I've only ever seen them boiled. So get a big pot of water boiling and drop him in be sure to listen for the scream!
well, first you have to take a knife and stab it between the eyes, its the humane way, so they don't feel pain from being cooked alive, then put it in boiling water and use a butter sauce to dip in. enjoy!

Boiling, BLAH!! Sorry folks, I've been diving for lobster for a lot of years. Steam that bug, some bay leaf and lemon slices in the water will give you a nice aromatic steam.
Boil 'em or steam 'em.
As Jon advises, DO NOT BOIL IT! Steam it. Much better.
Get a pot of boiling water large enough to hold him. Put it in head first. Really. It will die faster and taste better. Happy eating, you gourmet sadist! lol
I did this before, good stuff.





get a big pot that fit the lobster, pour in about 1 inch of water and a bottle of light color beer...





when the water and beer is boiling, drop the lobster in for about 15 min to 20 min. depends on how big is your lobster.





Yummy... warm up some real butter... cut up some lemons...





Cold beers or cold white wine ... YES!!!!!!!!
Get a large pot of water and add some salt or, crab boil. When it is at boiling stage, drop him in!





I do not know how big your lobster is but, it does not take very long for them to cook! About 15 minutes are so.
The quickest way to cook it is to let him take a plunge in boiling hot water. Fill up the pot with water, bring it to a boil, drop it in and it shouldn't take more than 12 to 15 minutes. It will turn bright red and float to the top when its done.
