Size chart (1–7 lb)

Soft planning guide — exact meat yield varies; ask the counter if you want help sizing a party:

  • 1–1.5 lb — classic single-plate lobster
  • 2–3 lb — larger plate or easy share
  • 4–7 lb — showpiece / split for a table

We won’t invent a fixed “feeds X guests” number here — call (772) 461-2797 for holiday or party counts.

How to cook: boil, steam, or grill

Keep lobsters cool and cook the same day you pick up when you can.

  • Boil — large pot of well-salted water at a rolling boil; cook until shells turn bright red and meat is opaque
  • Steam — a few inches of water, tight lid, same doneness cues (bright red shell, opaque meat)
  • Grill — often split or par-cooked first; finish over medium heat until just done

Timing depends on size and method — ask the shop for a minute guide for the pounds you buy tonight rather than guessing from a generic chart.

Pickup timing & keep-alive care

  • Pick up as close to cook time as you can
  • Keep lobsters cool, moist, and out of standing fresh water; don’t seal them airtight in a warm car
  • Plan to cook promptly — live product isn’t a hold-for-days item
