Littleneck Clam Spaghetti & Boiled Lobster

Going to boil a couple lobsters this evening. I have a 1.75 lb and a 3 lb monster.
Going to throw some thyme, oregano, parsley & garlic into a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Dip the lobsters in and let’s boil for 9/10 minutes. Remove and immediately dunk into a vat of chilled water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for 5 minutes and start breaking open.
Serving with clarified butter and a side of littleneck clam spaghetti tossed with olives oil, garlic, Parmesan and parsley.
Any tips on the lobster? The above method was what I did last time and they came out great. Will post pics later.

So you run through your method for boiling lobster, say that's how you're going to do it, then ask if anyone has advice on how to boil lobster?
If you wanted to brag about eating lobster tonight, just go ahead and do it. No need for the pretense.

I’ve only cooked it once and was wondering if lobster vets had tips to make it better.

I always thought lobster is typically steamed rather than boiled. How does boiling change the taste?

I'd argue that broiling lobster gives the deepest flavor.
If you want the most suçculent, then sous vide is best.

Boiling was the first method I used and they came out better than those I’ve had in restaurants. I’m sure steaming would produce same results.

They don't absorb any of that seasoning in the water.

Put them in quick so they don’t scream.

Anybody want to bump the thread about the guy selling lobsters for a discounted price on TD that he had stolen from his job? (Or something along those lines)
I could use a laugh tonight.

You boil or steam lobster until it’s bright red. That’s when it’s done. Not some arbitrary time in minutes.

Oh... bright red, I see now. How silly of me!

Those clams don't seem very open.

They were all cracked at a minimum but you’re right, some needed more time. Next time I’ll use a larger sauté pan.
