Learn how to cook lobster tails.

Each 4–5 oz raw lobster tail yields approximately 2–2.5 oz of cooked lobster meat.

Recommended Portions:

• Main Entrée: 2 tails per person (yields 5–6 oz cooked meat) → Ideal for dinner-sized portions
• Surf & Turf: 1 tail per person (2.5 oz cooked meat) → Perfect complement to steak or other proteins
• Lobster Rolls / Pasta / Salads: 1 tail = 1 roll or 1 salad serving → Each tail provides enough meat for one standard lobster roll or generous topping

Cooking our frozen lobster tails is easier than you think—and incredibly rewarding. Each tail is individually frozen for freshness, so we recommend thawing before cooking for the best texture and flavor. Once thawed, you can broil, bake, steam, or grill them to perfection. Quick Prep Tips:

• Thaw tails overnight in the fridge or under cold running water for 30–60 minutes.
• Butterfly the tails for even cooking and a stunning presentation.
• Brush with butter, lemon, and herbs for restaurant-quality results.

At ShopLobster, freshness isn’t just a promise—it’s a process. Every lobster tail in your box was harvested from the cold, clean waters off the Maine coast and immediately processed using cutting-edge preservation technology to lock in that straight-from-the-sea flavor. We use High-Pressure Processing (HPP)—a powerful cold pasteurization method that uses ultra-high water pressure to eliminate harmful bacteria like listeria and E. coli, without any heat or chemicals. This keeps the meat raw but perfectly safe, with its natural texture and sweetness fully intact. Then we flash-freeze each tail using Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) with liquid nitrogen. This advanced method freezes each tail individually—never in a clump—so you get perfectly preserved flavor, texture, and color in every piece. The result?

• No preservatives
• No freezer burn
• No compromise on taste

You get premium lobster tails that cook up buttery, tender, and fresh—just like they were caught this morning.
