When you hear them stop screaming they are ready!!!

Seriously though put about 2 inches of beer in the bottom of a pot, some butter and a little OLD Bay. Turn it up hot and drop them clawed wonders right in. Keep the lid on but leave room for some air to puff out. Once the water starts boiling and they are starting to steam the shell turns bright red cook for about 2 minutes after that and they will be ready. DONT OVER COOK...Shoe leather tastes like sh*t.

10 minutes for the first pound, then 2 minutes for each addtional pound.

ie: a 1 1/2 lb lobster takes 14 minutes.

Googled the info a month ago when I steamed afew and they came out perfect.

thanks for the cooking advice, but they didn't last that long

they were fantastic! threw some clams and corn in the pot with them and had a nice shellfish dinner. The rabbi would not be happy
