Order 1 lb. of Fresh Lobster Tail Meat From Maine
Give your dinner routine a much-needed upgrade with fresh lobster tail meat, sourced responsibly from wild-caught Maine lobsters. Lobster tail meat is the premium option to give any meal some extra class and flavor. Our lobster tail meat comes fully cooked, making it ideal to use in lobster rolls, or as the centerpiece in lobster tacos, lobster fettuccine, or one of our many chef-prepared lobster recipes.
Sustainably Harvested Lobster Tail Meat
To ensure the long-term population of this coastal crustacean – which supports thousands of independently owned businesses here in Maine and all along the North Atlantic coast – we only use lobsters that are wild-caught and sustainably sourced. When you order from Maine Lobster Now, you can feel confident you’re eating great-tasting lobster that’s good for the ocean.
Unmatched Quality and Freshness
Maine Lobster Now delivers lobster tail meat that tastes better than our competition because it’s fresher. Our lobster tail meat is fully cooked, sealed airtight, and shipped fresh to your door the next day. It’s like having lobster served to you at a restaurant right here along the majestic Maine shoreline.
May contain shell particles, body meat and leg meat.
We sustainably source our lobster tail meat directly from independently owned wharfs just a few miles from our headquarters here in Maine and along the expansive Maine coastline. These docks trace all lobster landings to every lobsterman and woman who catches them, and we trace our lobsters to every dock where they landed.
The Serving Size of Fresh Lobster Tail Meat
If you’ve never bought 1 lb. lobster tail meat before, you might not know how much it can make. One pound goes a long way. On average, 1 lb. of lobster tail meat comes from 5 lobsters. It’s the same amount of meat we send in our lobster roll kits, which can make a belly-filling 6 lobster rolls for the whole family. Or you can choose to pair your fresh lobster tail meat with any number of our lobster side dishes for a truly classic New England experience.
Are Lobsters the Next Superfood?
Lobster tail meat offers a host of beneficial health qualities similar to other “superfoods.” Lobster is an excellent source of protein, offering 19 grams of protein per 3.5 oz. serving.
Lobster also contains a healthy dose of vitamins B3, B6, and B12 to support metabolism and cognitive function. It’s an excellent source of the antioxidant selenium which prevents cellular damage and is high in zinc to boost immunity. Like other seafood we sell, lobster also contains omega-3 fatty acids that help lower inflammation and can reduce the risk of heart disease.
