Bet yours was much cheaper, although I was happy to pay the price. 18/lb down here and worth every cent.numbnuts240 wrote:ironically, i also had lobster today. roughly the same size, purchased right off a boat in maine.
When I was in the USAF, we used to stop in Maine on the way back from deployments to refuel etc. There was a guy selling lobsters by the box, packed in ice for $50. I think we got 12 of them dudes in a box. No 4 lbers, but no dainty little Liberal lobsters either.numbnuts240 wrote:oh damn. we bought three, a little over 12 pounds total, for $50. i couldn't believe how cheap that was.
Actually it was as good as I said. Absolutly amazing. I had a pic of it but I deleted it. As long as you keep basting and not overcook it, it will be 10x better than anything boiled.PapaSmurf2k3 wrote:How was the lobster? Was it tough and chewy at all? I used to find it could be easy to overcook some areas of larger lobster while others might still be undercooked (the mid section).
She was 3 weeks early (their best guess). She didn't have to lay in an incubator or anything, her lungs were fully developed. She was just small. (I was sick).WDRacing wrote:Bex, 3.8 lbs at birth aye? Was that wicked early or what? That's scary small.
Yeah, I'm talking about the whole thing. Doing just the tails is easy (more or less uniform thickness).alms24sebring wrote:Im talking just tails of course, not a whole one.


When I was at Cape Cod a couple years ago the lobster was expensive as hell. Granted, I didn't try and get one at the dock......SHIFT_COUPE wrote:Your photo makes me drool....
While we are on the subject of lobsters. Check these out that I had on Cape Cod this year. I believe they were about the same weight as yours.
I can't remember exactly how much it was. I think it was in the $7.00 lb range which isn't too bad IMO. I've grown up in the northeast so I have nothing to compare it to.audtatious wrote:When I was at Cape Cod a couple years ago the lobster was expensive as hell.

Same when I was in Maine four years ago.....It was cheaper here than buying at the stores up there.
