Just finished watching “In Julia’s Kitchen with Master Chefs” which included a segment with Jasper White cooking his famous dish. Thank you for “scoring” the recipe, I plan to use it soon.

This is, truly, TO DIE FOR at the Summer Shack. It makes your toes curl. You will be speechless – inhaling every last morsel. If/when you’re in Boston this is the one meal, hands-down, that is a must-have.

Yes! I’ve seen this recipe being demonstrated on foodnetwork by Jasper White himself (w/ Julia Child) and it just looked totally awesome! Lobster in Boston is ~$4.50/lb!!! I tried this recipe twice and it’s totally easy to do and absolutely heavenly. The only downside is that sometimes it may get too salty since all the salt is coming from the lobsters themselves. Thanks for the lovely picture!

I’m a Boston native and this just makes me homesick. My favorite lobster ‘memory’ is when I lived in Boston and took a giant box on a flight to a friend in TX. The horror of her family watching me put all these live lobsters into a big pan of boiling water and holding it closed until I could let up– the pan a bit too small during the initial plunge.But boy they sure could eat them up when they were served. My friend’s daughter, then only 4, thought they were giant scorpians and cried, but even she ate them cooked.

You’ve really made me miss Boston. Sigh. I lived there for almost 7 years before we moved to Calif. But we were on Martha’s Vineyard this summer and ended up hosting a huge lobster feast for a big group of family & friends. Sadly, it POURED buckets and I had no external lighting source with me, so all my photos came out like, well, dung.

And I love Summer Shack! We used to take our kids there all the time. It’s a massive restaurant, isn’t it?

Beautiful pictures, as usual.
$18.99 for a pound of lobster? A few weeks ago, I heard on the news that lobsterman were only getting as low as $2.75 a pound. Wonder who’s making all that money?
Lobsters are also very good steamed plain. No butter, nothing on it. You get to taste the sweetness of the meat. Like you, I like the claws, and the head. The green stuff in the head – tomalley – is really good. I learned about it from one of Julia Child’s cooking shows.
Next time you are in New England, try the fried clams. They are the BEST!
