Directions
Prepare the Lobster
Fill a large pot with water and add sea salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil.
Cook the Lobster
Carefully add the live lobsters to the boiling water. Cover the pot and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes for the first lobster and 10-12 minutes for the second, or until they turn a bright red color.
Prepare for Serving
Once chilled, remove the lobsters from the ice bath. Use lobster crackers to break open the claws and tail, and serve with melted butter, lemon wedges, and fresh parsley.
