8 lb - 10 lb Canadian Live Lobster

We source our Canadian live lobsters directly from independently owned wharfs. Each day the docks trace their landings to the lobstermen who catch them, and we trace our lobsters to each dock where they landed.

What’s the Serving Size of 8-10 lb. Live Lobster?
When ordering live lobster, everybody instinctively asks, “How much lobster meat will I actually get?” Generally speaking, a 1 lb. hardshell live lobster will yield about 20% meat when cooked, or 3.2 oz. We’ve found the perfect serving size for lobster is about 3.5 oz.
So, with your 8-10 lb. live lobster, you might find yourself looking for a bigger plate! You’ll get approximately 2 lbs. of lobster meat from these massive crustaceans, plenty to fill many empty stomachs at the dinner table and still leave some leftovers. A 10 lb. lobster would yield about 2 lbs. of lobster meat, the same amount we send in our 6-pack lobster roll kits. Other great alternatives to serve with your North Atlantic live lobster are mashed red potatoes and corn on the cob. We’re not sure you’ll have room for dessert, but you can always add a traditional Labadie's Bakery Original Maine Whoopie Pie to your order to eat later on.

Lobster is a nutritious seafood rich in lean protein, essential for muscle repair and overall health. It is also an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, reduce inflammation, and may improve brain function. Additionally, lobster contains important vitamins and minerals like vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium, promoting immune and nervous system health.

Handle live lobsters carefully and cook them the day they arrive, as survival isn't guaranteed overnight once delivered. Store them in the refrigerator, either in the box or wrapped in damp paper with seaweed, but do not use an air-tight container, ice, or freshwater. Be cautious when handling lobsters, as their claws and tails can cause injury, especially if they arrive without bands.
