Preparation
Prepare the seafood
Rinse the oysters, shrimp, mussels, crab legs, and lobster under cold water. Ensure all seafood is clean and free of grit.
Cook the shrimp and mussels
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add shrimp and mussels. Cook until shrimp is pink and mussels open, about 3-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the lobster
If using a live lobster, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster and cook for about 8-10 minutes until bright red. Remove and let cool before cracking.
Arrange the platter
On a large platter, arrange the oysters, cooked shrimp, mussels, crab legs, and lobster in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
