Jumbo Maine Lobster Tails (7–8 oz Each)

Description

Our Jumbo Maine Lobster Tails are sourced from the cold waters off the coast of Maine and carefully selected for size, flavor, and consistency.

Each tail weighs 7–8 ounces, the premium size commonly served at high-end steakhouses. The meat is naturally sweet, firm, and succulent, with no additives or preservatives.

These lobster tails are flash-frozen immediately after harvest, locking in peak freshness and ensuring excellent texture when cooked. The result is lobster that tastes clean, rich, and buttery, whether broiled, baked, or grilled.

This product is ideal for:

• Special dinners at home
• Celebrations and entertaining
• Customers who want restaurant-quality lobster without restaurant prices

Available in multiple pack sizes so you can order exactly what you need.

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

• Thaw tails overnight in the refrigerator or under cold running water for 30–60 minutes.
• Butterfly the shell to ensure even cooking and a classic restaurant presentation.
• Brush with butter, lemon, and herbs to enhance the lobster’s natural sweetness.

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.
