The site.


You guys ever try them? Great service and boy are the lobsters good.


They will send you live ones or fresh frozen tails.


The clam chowder is great as well.

As an aside, let me tell you how to freeze lobster, in case you ever get the chance to dive for them or buy them fresh cheap.

Get plastic cups, the red 16oz kind.  Remove the tails and rinse.  Curl them into a ball, put them into the cup and fill with good water.  Freeze them.  They will last for 2 years and taste as fresh as the day they are caught.  To use, just boil your water, and throw the iceball-lobstertail in the pot (remove the cup, moron).

But for crying out loud, DON'T throw out the bodies and shells! Make stock out of them, freeeze it and enjoy the indescribable richness of that lobster flavor in sauces and soups for months after that one delicious but fleeting tail ;)

Wow.  That's rough.  I usually get mine free, but if I don't have time to go to the docks and I actually buy them, I could feed the neighborhood at that price.

Amen.  some of the best meat is in the body.

Anyone coming through Boston or Maine, be sure to give me a heads up and I'll show you a real lobster feed.  If your a eurotard, I'll probably kick your arse before I feed you, but it will be worth it.

Here's one of the best for straight seafood.  Whether it's a great deal or not depends on where you live.  It's the shipping that kills you.

Heh....well its a perishable item!

When I worked at UPS, it was always sad to see how many morons would try to ship those high-end steaks to a PO Box.  We'd search and search for the street address but usually, no go.  Or if we did call them, with folks being leery of telemarketers...they'd see UPS on the caller ID and not answer
