it's pretty good. butter is good but not necessary. i like the taste of lobster. it's really good if you make it with a nice sauce for spaghetti.

I used to think it was absolutely necessary but I agree with this now. Lobster is awesome.

95% of the times i eat lobster it is made this way. throw all the lobsters right in the pot with the sauce, cooked while the sauce cooks. gives the spaghetti sauce an outrageous flavor and cooks the lobster.

I've had it like this, and it's very good, but I still think broiled lobster is better.

I am absolutely crazy for lobster. My favorite food I guess.

Except for once when I had it in lasagna, the only way I've ever had it has been with drawn butter. I'd love to try it in a pasta sauce, or hell, any other way. Lobster is unbelievably delicious to me.

You can get it prepared so you don't have to dismantle it at the table, too. And if cooking it yourself, you can crack it out of the shell before cooking too, if you like.

Most of the lobster is in the tail, and if you're doing the main lobster type thing, in the claws. There's not all that much digging to do. Crab takes ten times longer to dig out, and on most sized crabs there's less meat when you do.

I grew up in Maine and have eaten more than my share. We'd steam it in seaweed for the best flavor.

oh that's another thing, when cooked in the sauce the shell gets pretty damn soft. effortless to bust open the claws and tail. nothing like tearing the end off the tail, pushing your thumb through, getting that big chunk of tail meat and putting it on top of your spaghetti with all that sauce.. wow

i will learn how to make this and other culinary masterpieces from my parents

I love some lobster. I agree that it's a bitch to prepare. I have a serious aversion to working with food once I've ordered it...like fajitas.

An old friend of mine used to visit Nova Scotia every year. She says that the McDonalds there serves lobster at hamburger prices, and that her friends told her that when they were young and their families were poor, they were really envious of kids who got peanut butter or baloney sandwiches for lunch, because all they had was lobster.

I used to hate lobster. Thought it was gross. After working for about 6 months at Red Lobster I started to come around though. Now it is one of my favourite foods.
