COUNTRY GIRL said:I do beg to differ politely. I have cooked many a lobster in my lifetime, I can NOT stick a lobster in a pot of boiling water head first and have it start kicking, screaming, and back pedaling out of the pot. The grill is up to temprature, set the lobster on the hot grill close the cover and it never moves or screams.
My first experience with lobster many years ago was a lobster dumped in boiling water and he was not impressed. I could not eat it for many years, once I could, I could not cook it. So in my humble opinion it is the best way for the mess, the smell and the lobster.
Thanks for the comment.
COUNTRY GIRL said:Don, Pretty cold to be cooking on the grill daily, might get frost bit. So how long does it take to cook a turkey on the grill?
Road, One of my problems with cooking a lobster is they are still alive. So sticking them in a pot of boiling water and having them fight you really turns my stomach. SO splitting them down the middle would be a job for the boys, just couldn't bring myself to do it. I have had it cooked that way though, comes out yummy.
Trish they may have had to use the anchor line for this one.
Ron, Maine lobster is some of the best! Some people will take the time and get all the tiny morsels out of the head area, not me. I know of some that think the green and red stuff in there is a delicacy, not me. Just give me the meat with lots of butter!
Savant, Well you asked for the torture..........That big boy actually came with fillet Mignon, a couple pounds of shrimp, champagne, a lb of butter, cocktail sauce, and fresh lemon. Sorry no more pictures we ate it all!
Fossis, It was yummy!

I personally don't care for the taste of lobster but have always wondered that if it is boiled in crawfish boil if it would taste like crawfish. Being from south Louisiana, crawfish are in danger if they get within 100 feet of me. Looks like you enjoyed your God given right to eat the critter.
