Man you guys in FLA have it easy..here in California we have to only use our hands for lobster.

Same in Massachusetts, and our lobsters have claws!!

Nice full set of Tails Mr. Bill!!!

But what's in the baggie??

 

[MrBill_FTL]

antennas!


few years ago a guy asked for the heads when I was cleaning them.

I watched him cut out the 'knuckle' quite a bit of meat there...

but you pretty much beat it with a hammer and pick out the meat.. very thorny...

I save them up, unitl I have a pound or so, then eat them as snacks while watchin the game.
