Same here and I can't imagine getting the Claw Meat done properly with the Tail Meat on the Grill. I'm sure there's a way but I'm just a Tail Gunner when it comes to Grilling them.

Never had a bad tail on the grill in foil and butter.

If a lobster is tough, it was overcooked. Just make sure it's not.

Shrimp recipes... Takes me back to my P.S. days (pre-smoke ;) )...

I tend to take shrimp a Mexican route...

Quick marinade in oil, lime juice, cilantro, and mexican spices.
Skewer them and give them a couple min per side.
Mango salsa (equal parts rough chop mango, tomato, avocado and season with lime/spice).
your favorite cole slaw.
Toast some tortillas to your preference (corn or flour),

I usually round out that meal with some cilantro-lime rice and another fresh pico. If we don't feel like tacos, we do the same preparation but after cooking we give the shrimp/salsa a rough chop and stuff hollowed out avocados with the mixture.

Also make sure you've got the fixin's for your favorite micheladas or margaritas (bonus points for both).

Maybe you could take a cooler when you go to pick them up and the Market could do the euthanization (sp) for you - - - then pop them in cold storage for the trip home :dont:

You should have seen my Family ('specially the G-babies) the first time I purged and chunked a hand full of live mud bugs in that boiling stew pot. I instantly became the meanest man on the planet but they got over it once they started peeling and eating.

OK, Juice-Tone, I called my Lobster Lady in Minnesota and she said to just take the live Lobsters and put them in the Freezer and they will slowly and painlessly go to sleep and then be ready for Grilling after they thaw a little bit. :dont: :idea:
