Florida spiny lobster does not have the large claws associated with Maine lobster. Most of its sweet white meat is found in the tail.
Its firm texture makes it especially well suited for grilling, broiling, baking, roasting, steaming, and sautéing with butter.
Best for surf-and-turf dinners, seafood platters, smaller portions, and serving more than one tail per person.
Best for individual entrées, grilling and broiling, weeknight upgrades, and special dinners.
Best for generous individual servings, dinner parties, holiday meals, and premium presentations.
Best for celebrations, gifts, lobster-forward meals, and impressive plate presentation.
Lobster tails are sold by weight. Counts are approximate, and individual tail sizes naturally vary.
Whole Florida spiny lobster may be available in these sizes. Whole lobster is ideal for grilling, roasting, splitting, and serving family-style.
Plan on approximately one 6–8-ounce lobster tail per adult when lobster is the main course with side dishes. Choose a larger tail or two smaller tails for heartier servings. Smaller tails work especially well for surf-and-turf dinners or meals that also include shrimp, fish, stone crab, or steak.
For whole lobster, approximately one 1–1.5-pound lobster per adult is a useful starting point. Adjust according to appetite, lobster size, and the other dishes being served.
Florida's regular spiny-lobster season runs from August 6 through March 31. Frozen lobster tails are offered when fresh lobster is unavailable and make it possible to enjoy Florida lobster throughout the year.
Our 10 lb. lobster-tail boxes are designed for parties, restaurants, events, and customers who want to keep premium Florida lobster in the freezer. The tails are packed in smaller portions so customers can thaw only what they need for each meal. Shop the 10 lb. Lobster Tail Box.
Florida lobster tails and whole lobster are delivered uncooked. They can be grilled, broiled, baked, roasted, steamed, or sautéed. For a Florida Keys-style meal, pair lobster with garlic butter, scampi butter, key lime butter, citrus, and fresh herbs. Cook only until the lobster meat becomes opaque and firm -- overcooking can make the meat dry or tough.
The Florida Lobster Salad is fully prepared and ready to eat.
