How To Tell If a Lobster Is Spoiled
- Your lobsters should look alive with tails straight and claws up. Even if your lobster seems cold, the legs underneath their body should move a little.
- If you have a lobster that isn’t moving, set it on its back and wait. If it doesn’t start to move in a few minutes, it’s dead. You shouldn’t cook dead lobster, so let us know as soon as you discover the loss. If one of your lobsters is dead, please take a picture of it on its back and email customer service for a refund. Including an invoice number will expedite the refund process.
Getting Ready To Cook — Things You Should Know Before You Start Cooking Lobsters
Do you know how to cook lobster until it’s tender, juicy and not overdone? Cooked lobster is incredible and a perfect crowd-pleaser. However, cooking lobster isn’t intuitive and requires several steps for best results.
How to Cool Cooked Lobster
Cooling your lobsters after steaming or boiling is essential to avoid overcooking them. People often turn the stove off but leave steaming lobsters in the pot. However, they’ll continue to cook if left hot and may be ruined.
A good way to prevent overcooking is to spray cooked lobsters with your sink’s hose or an outdoor hose. Spraying them with cold, fresh water after they finish cooking helps them remain in the perfect serving condition. Turning off the fire isn’t enough, and leaving them in a hot pot filled with steam will cause them to keep cooking. Spraying them with cold water is the best option.
What Tools Do You Need to Cook Lobster?
If you have a regularly stocked kitchen, you can cook lobster. However, there are some specific items that can make cooking lobster much easier and faster. Here’s a quick list of kitchen tools to have on hand when you’re cooking lobster:
- Large pot
- Tongs or heat-safe gloves
- Rubber bands for the claws
- Kitchen knife
- Lobster crackers
- Bowl to collect meat
- Plate for shells
Instructions for Boiling Live Jumbo Lobsters:
- Fill a large pot with water, cover it with a lid and let it reach a rolling boil. Improve the cooking flavor by adding salt.
- Place the lid on the pot and continue cooking until the tail’s internal temperature reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a digital thermometer’s probe in the top of the tail’s soft membrane to check its temperature. Ensure you insert the thermometer into the meat for an accurate reading, not between the shell and the meat.
- Check the claws’ temperatures after the tail reaches 170 degrees because a larger lobster’s claws require a longer cooking time than its tail. Insert the thermometer probe above the top of the claw, through the soft membrane and into the meat. Check both claws since they differ in size, and remember that larger lobster claws require more cooking time. Separating the tail from the claws after it reaches 170 degrees and continuing to cook the claws separately is the best way to ensure they also reach 170 degrees. Refer to the chart below for additional boiling time information.
- Submerge the lobsters in ice or ice water after it cooks fully.
- A jumbo lobster’s shells are significantly harder than small lobsters’ shells, so you will most likely need to crack its claws using a mallet or hammer.
Instructions for Steaming Live Lobsters:
- Pour approximately 2 inches of water into your pot, and add Maine sea salt if you use freshwater.
- Place seaweed in the pot if you wish.
- Wait for the water to reach a heavy boil.
- Place your live lobsters in the pot with tongs or gloves, and cover the pot tightly.
- Reduce the heat to a rolling boil after it starts to boil heavily again, and start your timer.
- Steam the first pound of lobsters for nine minutes and an additional four minutes per each extra pound. Refer to the steaming times listed below.
- The steamed lobsters will turn a bright red shade when they finish cooking.
- Once they’re done, remove them carefully with gloves or tongs. Place them in cool water or place them on a plate for three to five minutes so they can cool.
Lobster Cracking Instructions:
- Twist off the lobster claws.
- Crack each lobster claw and knuckle with a lobster cracker.
- Separate the lobster tail from the body.
- Insert a fork and push the tail meat out in one piece.
- Remove the black vein which runs the length of the lobster tail.
- Extract the meat from the legs by biting down and squeezing the meat out with your teeth.
- Use your fork to find the meat in the lobster’s tail flippers.
Our Commitment to Traceability
We ensure every lobster is traceable back to the dock where it was caught. From harvest to delivery, we track each step of the supply chain to maintain transparency and sustainability. This commitment guarantees the freshest, highest-quality lobsters while supporting responsible fishing and giving our customers confidence in their seafood’s origins.
Nutritional Benefits
Lobster is a nutritious seafood rich in lean protein, essential for muscle repair and overall health. It is also an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, reduce inflammation, and may improve brain function. Additionally, lobster contains important vitamins and minerals like vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium, promoting immune and nervous system health.
Storage & Thawing
Handle live lobsters carefully and cook them the day they arrive, as survival isn’t guaranteed overnight once delivered. Store them in the refrigerator, either in the box or wrapped in damp paper with seaweed, but do not use an air-tight container, ice, or freshwater. Be cautious when handling lobsters, as their claws and tails can cause injury, especially if they arrive without bands.

Fantastic shipping. Lobsters were fresh and awesome. Birthday gift for my wife. Packed perfectly. Would order again. Thanks so much!
Wonderful treat, great attitude and service
Had 18 of these bad boys for a birthday dinner
Ordered lobsters for my son's birthday and they were delivered on time and alive......
I would recommend MAINE LOBSTER to everyone...
Extremely great lobsters, delivered on time, and fresh as if I were in Maine.
While we had plenty of drawn better ready, they were so succulent and delicious, we didn't use any. Superlative lobsters.
Great food and EXCELLENT Customer Service! If there is any mishap, this company will back you up. Will definitely order again.
Fast delivery. Deluxe condition.
Delicious Birthday treat! Thank you guys!
Great service! Lobster was great! 3# lobsters are huge! Great birthday celebration.
absolute perfection! You have a customer for life😊 made my daughters birthday one to remember
We will use them again.
We have been getting lobsters from Maine Lobster Now for years and have never been disappointed! This latest order for a Father's Day celebration was the best lobster meat we have had in a long time - fresh, sweet and firm. Can't wait for our next order! Many thanks to the team!
My buddy is a great cook and a good friend so I surprised him with some New England Style charm. A seafood dinner. And he loved it!!!
Our lobster arrived on time and in great condition. A 3 pound lobster was more than I could eat. Thanks for such a good product.
Great pair of lobsters arrived active and fresh. Easy ordering and quick delivery. End result couldn't have been better.
All three 2.5 lb lobsters arrived in great condition. When they were rinsed, the tails were flapping! Cooked them up that evening. All three were hardshell and full of meat. We have ordered live lobster over the years from other companies and at times received some softer shelled ones without much meat in the claws. Very happy with our purchase from MLN. Could not have asked for a better product. Will definitely order again when the craving hits and the price is right.
We went to the beach for his 60th birthday celebration. He wanted lobster….ordering was easy and the shipping updates were reassuring. They arrived at approximately 3:00pm. They were packaged in seaweed and they smelled like the ocean. They were so fresh and delicious. A happy birthday boy!
I got this for my girlfriend's birthday... It arrived on time, as promised (actually early :+1::+1:)..
Tasted delicious and made my lady happy on her special day... Thank you...we will be ordering again soon.
Every so often we treat ourselves to these enormous lobsters and we're never disappointed.
I’ve been buying with MLN for 5yrs….the lobsters are delivered on time and always exceed expectations…wonderful Christmas experience for the kids and grandkids!! THANK YOU MLN!!
Fresh and Delicious lobsters and the bisque were Excellent
They were delivered as promised and were very tasty.
The lobster was exceptional! We were very pleased and had plenty left over for lobster rolls! A Plus!
My parents absolutely love this gift! Two fresh lobsters are delivered like clockwork to their Los Angeles home. The ordering process is very easy. I plan to continue to send them Maine Lobster Now for many years to come! 🦞🦞
This company proliferated the art of great service with a great quality product.
Great 54th Anniversary dinner! They arrived on time and in great shape. They boiled up perfectly and were delicious! Plenty left over for lobster rolls! We’re definitely regular customers!
They came in the next day as promised and delicious
The lobsters 🦞 were fabulous 😊
A little bit pricey, but worth it if you wanna make her Happy.😁
They came right on time, and they were delicious
Our fresh Lobsters were amazing! They arrived fresh, alive and still cold! We will be ordering them again! Highly recommend

I send my brother lobsters for his birthday every July. Your product is always fresh and delivered on time. Thank you.
Arrived frisky, and cooked up delicious!
High quality lobsters arrived right on time - alive and kicking.
Delivered on time and all 7 lobsters were tender, full of meat and easy to crack. Will definitely be ordering again.
The lobsters arrived in plenty of time. They were all alive and active. The cooking process was easy. We had a delicious meal!!!
This is the second time I've ordered they came in perfectly. The time before one was lame and I never heard back from anybody I had multiple emails but nobody really cared.
Our lobsters and steamers arrived freshly wrapped in seaweed.
Can’t wait to order more lobster
Lobsters arrived all safe and sound early in the morning. We followed the instructions included in the package by putting them into the refrigerator until we cooked them that evening. We followed the cooking instructions and they came out perfectly. Tasted grate and they weren’t over cooked. I’ll be ordering again soon.
Will never get lobster from anyplace other than Main Lobster Now.
Arrived very lively and chock full of meat. No hollow claws like you sometimes get with store bought lobsters. Delicious
All four lobstahs were fresh and tasty. My wife made a lobster spread the next day with the leftovers. Everyone loved it.
I get my dad a lobster every year from you but this year decided to get him two 1.75 lb ones instead of the 3lb. He said it was the best lobster he ever ate and he has had many in his 83 years. Thank you for making it easy for me to get him these special gifts since he moved south it is hard for him to find locally.
Great lobster- all alive- and delicious!! You guys are the best!
The lobster were wonderful!!
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!! My elderly parents LOVED the lobsters, steamers and Key Lime Pie! A memorable Father's Day for sure!
Third time we’ve ordered from here..great every time!!
Every NYE my friend and I order lobsters to celebrate. This year we tried your company and we’re not disappointed. 2 of the lobsters were boiled and we baked the third one. All three really turned out good. In fact we liked the baked better than boiled. We WILL be ordering from your company next year!
Thank you for making our New Years so wonderful and yummy. You have two new customers added to your mailing list!
Lobsters were amazing. Delivery on time for a very special Valentine’s dinner. Made for a truly remarkable night!
These were delicious, they were salty, all arrived alive . My guests loved them!
They came in a box filled with clean seaweed. I just put them and the seaweed into the bottom drawer of the fridge for a few hours before boiling them. They were alive and stayed alive up until cooking. I’m sure some lobsters croak during this adventure—but none of mine did. I’ve ordered a few times from this company and never got a dead lobster yet! That’s amazing!
The pictures speak for how OMG delicious lobster fest we enjoyed, including lobster races! Worth every penny! We got dinner and a lobster roll lunch out of these guys!
One a year or once a month, indulge!
I ordered whole lobsters for my husband’s 75th birthday. They arrived in great condition and cooking was easy. They were deliciously meaty. Thanks for making my husband’s birthday so special.
Had a wonderful lobster dinner! Delivered alive, cooked them up according to the directions, Delicious!
This is my second order within a few months. This is a uplifting gift I send to my brother. He is one of my favorite admirers. It has not been
They were delicious!
Perfect! Great food, great customer experience, have recommended to many and will order again!
Great place to buy seafood and soup. I have tried a number of things from Maine Lobster and they have all been good.
The lobsters came fresh, came quickly and they were delicious!! Always going to order from here!!
I gifted my sister 4 lobsters for her Birthday dinner!! Her response “ The lobsters were soooooo good! Thanks again 🥰🥳”. They were enjoyed by all!!!
Lobsters arrived in perfect condition.. tasted like they were just pulled out of the ocean.
Lobster Fra Diavolo is our family's favorite, so to celebrate our reunion, we ordered 4 live ones. They arrived on time, to the minute, beautifully packed and topped with seaweed. Each lobster was lively and ready for cooking. Dinner was a big success, every savory bite brought closed eyes and a smile! So delicious that we couldn't wait for leftovers! Best Fra Diavolo ever, in Colorado no less, thanks to Maine Lobster Now!!
Lobsters arrived on time and well packed and shipped. One lobster arrived dead, but quality was still good—eyes clear—and most likely was not dead for long. Didn’t stop us from enjoying, but would have preferred both lobsters arrived alive.
Lobsters were decent, however our box was damaged on arrival, along with one dead lobster. There was no seaweed either as advertised-pretty disappointed with that as I’ve not had seaweed delivered with lobsters the whole time I’ve been ordering from them. I understand it’s seasonal but every time???
In all fairness, I did still cook the dead lobster as it had all the signs of being fresh still (must have happened recently), suffered no ill-effects (don’t recommend doing this unless you know what to look for) and customer service has always done right by me when I’ve had an issue (every time 😂), which is why I didn’t contact them when this issue happened.
If it weren’t for their A+ customer service, I would have stopped ordering from them on strike 2, but because they always make it right and do everything in their power to accommodate their customers to the best of their ability, I will still remain their customer. Thank you for making our Mother’s Day delicious and memorable.
This has become a birthday tradition. Like this time, things always go perfectly!. Healthy lobsters, easy ordering, timely delivery, and delicious results.
The best we have ever had from Maine!!
Ordered 4 lobsters for Father’s Day. Everything arrived on time, perfectly package in seaweed with helpful instructions on storing and cooking the lobsters. Was worth the price and each lobster was a really decent size. I would definitely order again and skip the hassle of trying to find decent lobsters in the grocery store.
I have used Maine Lobster now for many occasions! Always an amazing experience! Father’s Day was a success due to them!!
Always delicious
Everybody was so helpful and when I made a few changes, they went with it, and the delivery was perfect.
Right on time for bday dinner

I cooked the lobsters right away and they were delicious, lots of meat and very tasty. I froze some of the meat and will enjoy this within the next few weeks. My neighbor enjoyed the lobster tails I shared with her. I will order again.

Totally worth it!
Great family event made my wife’s birthday. I we will be checking this out again. And hoping this is an ongoing one special. Amazing
They were absolutely delicious
I have ordered their live lobster a few times and they're always so fresh and very Lively.
I gave this as a gift and they were delighted. It was delicious, reasonably priced and delivered on time.
We modified our Thanksgiving to accommodate conflicting commitments on Thanksgiving Day and had live lobsters delivered the Saturday before. It was an awesome experience and a fantastic meal. We are still talking about it!
Perfect as always! We order them every year for my Birthday & did not disappoint! :heart:️ :yum:
It was the freshest lobster I’ve ever had. I don’t know if you’ve ever tried lobster tail as sashimi, but it’s absolutely delicious. The meat is firm and bouncy, with a sweet flavor that intensifies as you chew. Since the lobster was extremely fresh, we enjoyed the tail as sashimi and steamed the rest. Our guests were all blown away by how good the lobster tasted.
We always doe seafood for Christmas. My husband wanted Lobster and we live in Texas. I hopped online and found Maine Lobster Now and placed an order. The lobster arrived alive and fresh and was absolutely delicious. Will definitely order again.
Lobsters were great as usual. Live Maine Lobsters always delivered on time!
The second time I’ve ordered live lobsters and it was truly fresh and actually nice size. My grand kids always love to help me unpack them
Our beautiful lively lobsters arrived on time, carefully packaged with ice packs and seaweed. We were having a seafood boil and these 1lb succulent chicks were the star of the show. I haven’t had a lobster this delectable for a long time. So sweet and tender with fully packed claws and no shrinkage. Everybody enjoyed them and they really added to a great evening. Thank-you and I can’t wait to order again!
OMG Lobsters!!! My family and I were excited to see the box that we have received. It was nicely packed, the lobsters are fresh and alive. It still got the aroma of the sea. We all enjoyed it. Honestly, for 12 lobsters and with that price it is WORTH IT!!!
Wanted to make a seafood boil for my family and came across this deal on lobsters-super stoked they had them available cuz it made for a great boil-plenty to go around, delicious and economical! They were alive and kickin’ up until the end and finally got my seaweed I've been waiting for-lol!
Everything was Great. I cannot be happier with the product we received. I loved the 12 pack, and I will be ordering more in the future.
OUTSTANDING !!!
My Wife was thrilled as we enjoyed her Birthday Lobsters. Thank You :-)
Excellent! Amazing price. Amazing staff and overnight delivery!
All 48 lobsters arrived alive and were delicious! Everything was delivered on the day selected for our annual cabin trip. This will be our future lobster supplier!
The lobsters arrived on Friday as scheduled. I didn’t want to pay the extra money for the Saturday delivery. We kept them in the original package and ate them on Saturday afternoon!! They were alive and kicking!!!! Our guests were impressed as we unpacked and sedated them before serving. Thank you ! Excellent! I will order again…these guys know their business very well!!
