From Sea to Plate: Premium 12 lb Frozen Maine Lobster Tails (5–6 oz)

Savor the rich, buttery flavor of wild-caught Maine lobster with our 12 lb box of frozen lobster tails, featuring 30–36 tails perfectly portioned at 5–6 ounces each. Ideal for dinner parties, special events, or stocking your freezer with gourmet-quality seafood, these tails are individually quick frozen (IQF) to lock in their naturally sweet, tender flavor.

Whether you’re grilling for a crowd or creating a luxurious surf-and-turf at home, these premium-grade lobster tails offer convenience without compromise. Each one is harvested from the cold Atlantic waters off the coast of Maine and carefully processed for maximum freshness.

At ShopLobster, we go beyond the standard with High-Pressure Processing (HPP)—an advanced cold-pasteurization method that eliminates harmful bacteria without chemicals or heat. The result? 100% natural lobster tails that are safe, delicious, and perfectly preserved—no preservatives, no freezer burn, no hassle.

From sourcing to shipping, every step is designed to deliver restaurant-quality lobster from the ocean straight to your plate.

How We Keep It This Fresh – Even Frozen

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.

Preparation Instructions

Thawing: Place lobster tails in the refrigerator overnight or immerse in cold water for 30-60 minutes until fully thawed.​

Check out our guide on how to cook frozen lobster tails

Cooking Methods:

Grilling: Preheat grill to medium-high. Brush tails with melted butter, place shell-side down, and grill for 5-6 minutes until meat is opaque.​

Broiling: Preheat broiler. Place tails on a baking sheet, brush with butter, and broil 4-5 inches from heat for 5-6 minutes.​

Baking: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place tails in a baking dish, add a small amount of water or wine, cover with foil, and bake for 12-15 minutes.​

Serving Tip: Avoid overcooking to maintain tenderness and juiciness.

Bigger than expected
I sent a 10lb case of lobster tails to my mother for Christmas. I didn't want some small 4oz lobster tails like sold in some places. I ordered the 6-7 oz bulk tails and to be honest they were bigger than expected. It wasn't a problem. But did not ship the day they were supposed to. They shipped the next day. Arrived perfect. It's just I wanted to make sure my parents were home to get the delivery.

Excellent each time
I’ve ordered these lobster tails three or four times now, and the quality has been consistently outstanding. Every order arrives on time and is packaged extremely well, keeping everything fresh and cold. The lobster tails are generously sized, meaty, and cook up beautifully. The flavor is rich and sweet on its own—honestly so good that butter isn’t even necessary. This has become my go-to source for lobster tails, whether for a special occasion or just a great meal at home. Highly recommend!
