I try to stop at 3 so I don't look like a glutton, but sometimes I can't!
Mmm!!! Lobster dipped in hot butter. I'll have to pick some up this week.
Lucky you're in a place privy to procuring them fresh from the ocean.
Not so easy to get around here anymore. Our grocery store got rid of their lobster tank decades ago. Most places, live lobsters are special order.
When we would vacation up in New England, we would eat lobster till it was coming out our ears. Cheap and plentiful. Good eats, good times!
There are packing companies that air ship fresh lobster but they command quite a premium over the price at the wharf.
Years ago when I had a Sam's Club membership I noticed Sam's offered boxed previously cooked frozen lobsters for about $5 each (1lb lobsters) ... that was at least 25 years ago.
Yeah, having them shipped like that is pretty much cost-prohibitive.
Haven't been to Sam's for a few years, but I remember them having frozen tails, large and small. Don't remember the whole lobsters. Been wanting to go back, I'll have to check it out, if I do.
