Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Generously salt boiling water and return to a boil. Plunge lobsters headfirst into boiling water and cook for 5 minutes; immediately transfer to ice-water bath to cool.
- Meanwhile, preheat broiler. In a small bowl, mix together butter, parsley, chives, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside.
- With a large knife, cut cooled lobsters in half lengthwise. Place cut side up on a baking sheet and brush cut side with butter mixture.
- Transfer to broiler and broil until lobsters are golden brown and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
STUFFED BROILED LOBSTER
Steps:
- Split lobsters in half and clean, take claws and crack the shell. Mix in a bowl all of the following: bread crumbs, garlic, oregano, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well then add olive oil until it has the consistency of sand. Place lobsters in a roasting pan, flesh side up. Spread some butter onto the flesh of the lobster. Take the bread mixture and place on top of lobster. When stuffed sprinkle with wine and then do the same with the chicken stock. Place in preheated 350 degree oven for 12 to14 minutes. Then place under broiler for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly brown. Remove from the oven and serve.
- If you like you can use vegetable broth instead of chicken.

Steps:
- Lobster is usually split before broiling, but it is my belief that this results in dry lobster meat, tasteless and tough. Broil the lobster whole over coals, allowing about 15 to 20 minutes cooking time. Turn it to cook evenly. Split it after broiling, remove the intestines and stomach and serve with plenty of melted butter and lemon quarters.
BROILED LOBSTER TAILS
Steps:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Place lobster tails on a baking sheet. With a sharp knife or kitchen shears, carefully cut top side of lobster shells lengthwise. Pull apart shells slightly, and season meat with equal amounts butter, paprika, salt, and white pepper.
- Broil lobster tails until lightly browned and lobster meat is opaque, about 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with lemon wedges to serve.

BOILED LOBSTERS
There is truly no more magnificent feast than a lobster dinner, whether it's eaten at a lobster pound picnic table or on your very own deck. At Thurston's Pound in Bernard, Maine, you choose your lobsters from the tanks near the order window, and then they're boiled in clean seawater in a large propane-fired cooker. To replicate this at home, just be sure to add enough salt to the water to create the right balance of ocean-briny flavor. A mere swipe through melted butter, a squirt of lemon and that's all anyone needs. Heaven!

Steps:
- Fill a large stockpot about half full of water. Add the salt and bring to a boil. When the water has come to a rolling boil, plunge the lobsters headfirst into the pot. Clamp the lid back on tightly and return the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the lobsters for 12 to 18 minutes (hard-shell lobsters will take the longer time), until the shells turn bright red and the tail meat is firm and opaque when checked.
- Lift the lobsters out of the water with tongs and drain in a colander. Place underside up on a work surface and, grasping firmly, split the tails lengthwise with a large knife. Drain off the excess liquid. Serve with melted butter and lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Choose live lobsters that are heavy for their size and have a firm shell.
- Kill the lobster humanely by inserting a sharp knife into its head, just behind the eyes.
- Broil the lobster for 10-12 minutes per pound, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.
- Serve the lobster with melted butter, lemon wedges, and your favorite dipping sauce.
- If you are new to cooking lobster, you may want to practice on a smaller lobster before attempting to cook a whole lobster.
Conclusion:
Broiled whole lobster is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With a little practice, you can easily cook lobster at home. Just be sure to choose a fresh, live lobster and follow the cooking instructions carefully. You'll be rewarded with a succulent, flavorful lobster that is sure to impress your guests.
