I've thrown some in during a crawfish boil. but have never specifically had a lobster boil. They turned out good, didn't take on a ton of seasoning though. It's something that I will do when I catch lobster tails on sale. Have some butter ready ... bonus points if you use the garlic from the boil.

I've had them. I didn't care for the crawfish boil flavor on the lobster. It sort of ruined it for me. I enjoy the flavor of the lobster meat with a bit of butter and lemon. That being said, I do enjoy lobster dishes like Newburg from time to time.

I don't care for lobster but boiled lobster is not what you want. Grilled with butter or any other recipe. Don't boil it. Just buy crawfish.

At some point, I don’t want everything flavored like crawfish.

Skip it. Back in the day (2013) when there were some hot robsters floating around on here I gave it a try next to some split on the grill with garlic butter. Grill > boil.

I've always boiled them in salt water. Crawfish pot full of water, and one tub of Morton's salt will do it. 1lb chicks are ready in about 8 minutes. No soaking needed. You know they are done right when the antennas pull right off with no resistance.

You could soak those things for a week and they'd never absorb the flavor

I’ve done it.
Boiled for 15, soaked for 40.
Came out like crawfish flavored lobster.
I enjoyed it.
I also steamed lobster with a flavorful water/broth last night and broiled them after prepping (cut tail, put on top of shell).
Came out great.

Cook separately w old bay. Dip in butter. Delicious

I usually boil a few sacks in the spring and save the crawfish for the poor people. Nothing like a good lobster bisk with the leftovers.

Steaming w aromatics is the fool proof way.
