A stuffing of lobster tails is not all that unusual but more commonly it
is doen with a mushroom stuffing, that includes the creamy parts and
coral of the lobster and is well worth the effort if using a live
lobster, get a bit of truffle in there is you can

But even a bread stuffing flavored with garlic and scallions is nice
with the frozen lobster tails we occasionaly get on sale around here.

Probly my favorte way of preparieng live whole lobster is a la broche,
where it is spit roasted and constantly basted in butter and champagne.

With a suitable dripping pan underneith to catch & hold the basting
liquid which is then turned into a sauce for the lobster.

Oh, my gosh that a la broche sounds good JL. Looooooove lobster, any
way I've ever had it.
Last weekend, Fathers Day, Acme had fresh uncooked lobsters for $
5.99/lb. We scored 4 of em and feasted. Our son was here and DH gave
him the 3+ pounder, and I showed him how to get every last bit out of
all of it. He was in heaven. Said he'd never had one that big. We
had, in Nova Scotia, one year on vacation.
Pure heaven!!!!! Acme did that last year at Fathers Day too. Hope
next year is as good. Nan in DE
