Fishermen's Net has worked with longtime lobster fishermen so we always choose and give top priority to the quality factor of lobster. You know live lobsters have a wide variety of quality and price. Lobsters are classified according to size, survival and quality of shell. Therefore, in order for the overnight transport of Maine lobsters to be alive and fresh, lobsters must stay alive, healthy and have a hard shell. When the lobster peels off its old shell, underneath there are new softer shells. Crustaceans are lobsters that have not recently been molted or shelled.
Lobsters just can live 20-24 hours without water, so, in order to maintain the freshness of the lobsters, freshly caught lobsters should be soaked in cold seawater tanks for several days to adjust them to cool transport temperatures. Lobsters are kept for a short time in a cold tank with fresh salt water-cooled continuously and periodically. This makes them stiffer and ready for shipping. After the lovely lobsters have been hardened, we go to packaging and shipping.
Choose to actually sign the lobsters before packing
Lobsters Packed
Whether shipping lobsters to Boston, Massachusetts or Flagstaff, Arizona, raw lobsters must be properly packaged to ensure they are kept cold and moist during shipping. Only use thick coolers, insulated with seawater or seaweed newspaper. To transport lobsters, they should also be wrapped with cold gel packs.
It must be emphasized here that live lobsters must be more carefully packed to avoid any displacement and withstand harsh handling that could crack or break the shell. The delicacies should be packed in styrofoam boxes and then transported overnight to ensure freshness. Coolers should be at least 1 1/2 inch thick and put a thirsty pad on the bottom to hold any liquid. These containers help protect the temperature of your lobsters until they reach their destination.

What Are The Best Way To Cook A Lobster?
There are 2 ways that people usually cook lobsters is by steaming or boiling them. Steaming will make the lobster softer and less watery than boiling.
- With steaming: Prepare a pot large enough to hold the lobster, add some water, place the rack in. Boil water. Add lobster, cover and steam for about 7 minutes for 1 pound lobster, if adding each pound, steam for an additional 3 minutes.
- With boiled: Put lobster in a pot, pour water to cover the lobster, add 2 tbsps of salt for each quart of water. Cover and bring to a boil. Cooking time will depend on the size of the lobster. For 1-pound lobster, boil for 5-7 minutes, or for 1 1/4-pound lobster, boil for 7-9 minutes.
How Soon Should I Cook The Lobster From Receiving?
Ideally, you should cook within 24 hours of receiving the lobster. But if you don't eat it right away, you can store it in the refrigerator with the packed seaweed overnight (seaweed helps retain moisture very well). Absolutely do not use fresh water to keep the lobster moist during storage.
