I saw that the Lobster season is very good this year and found someone selling with shipping on Craig's List in Maine for a fair price.
I ordered 20 of the 1.5 lbers and they will be in on Friday afternoon. I have a few friends coming over and I am going to cook them a few different ways. I was thinking about putting some on the grill split lengthwise and basting with butter.
What are some other ideas? Perhaps I can perfect the lobster roll...

Find Emeril's Stuffed Lobster Recipe and do that to a few. Great dish...I substitute the "Northern" seasonings with a Creole spice and it is awesome.

This Is It . I don't use the tarragon...I use a Cajun spice to taste...awe who am I foolin'...I use Tony's until the salt is right. I also saute some chopped shrimp and add that to the crab and lobster meat...this is a good recipe. And, you can make them in advance and just pop them in the oven shortly before serving time.

I saw the same add on craigslist and was interested in getting some. I emailed them but have not heard back. Do you have the contact info.
thanks,

looks like a scam to me. Anytime there are grammatical errors throws up red flags in my book.
unless you typed this in, I would be skeptical. Hope it all works out for you and the lobsters come out great.

As they are most likely "soft shell" try this with a couple of them. Break them apart and pull out the meat. Chop some onion, tomato, mushrooms and red bell pepper. Wrap all of the ingredients into a phyllo dough casing and bake until the dough is flaky as it can get. While this is baking make a plain beurre blanc. Plate the lobster roll, and give it a bit of the BB. As they say in France MANGE.

This is the email I just recieved back. Kind of skeptical myself.
Prior to payment i need your address so I can check on Saturday UPS service. Some areas aren't available. For both our protection I only accept paypal to my email address. In the note section of paypal please specify what size box you want and I will sent you tracking info around 3:30pm day before. I am not allowed on my cell during work hours so email works best and I get it immediately.

He told me yesterday that works with a relative on a boat, but does not currently own his own boat. So he problably has more than one job. I will know one way or another on Friday...

Ask him for his cell so that you can call him after work hours. Bet you get no response or just another excuse. I would be very skeptical of this. Like I said, I hope this all works out. I hate those craigslist scammers with a passion

Could be a scam, but who ever said fishermen were known for their grammar?

The guy just called me to verify my shipping address and said he will email the tracking number. Things are looking good.
Any other ideas for cooking...
