Order a 4-6 lb. Live Lobster for Your Dinner Table

Talk about your “Catch of the Day!” Maine Lobster Now offers giant 4-6 lb. live lobster shipped right to your front door. A North Atlantic 4-6 lb. lobster will fill up any serving tray for a wonderful family dinner night and are just as easy to prepare as smaller lobsters. Of course, the sweet, tender lobster meat flavor is still the same you’d expect to be found in all other sizes of lobster. The meat is perfect for dipping in melted butter or used in a wide variety of delicious lobster recipes.

Why Canadian Lobsters Are Sustainable

Canada has a long history of managing lobster sustainably, with the first conservation measures put in place in the 1870s. Today, the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) works with licensed fishermen to implement conservation methods, such as: 

  • Minimum size restrictions and protection of egg-bearing females
  • Biodegradable twine and escape panels on traps
  • Trap limits and restricted fishery entry
  • Staggered fishing seasons

Our Commitment to Traceability

We ensure every lobster is traceable back to the dock where it was caught. From harvest to delivery, we track each step of the supply chain to maintain transparency and sustainability. This commitment guarantees the freshest, highest-quality lobsters while supporting responsible fishing and giving our customers confidence in their seafood's origins.

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 4-6 lb. Live Lobster?
One question we’re often asked is: “How much meat will I get from my live lobster?” The general rule of thumb is that a 1 lb. hardshell live lobster will yield about 20% meat when cooked, or 3.2 oz. The recommended serving size for lobster is about 3.5 oz.
With that said, your 4-6 lb. live lobster should be plenty to fill the empty stomachs at the dinner table and still leave some leftovers. A 5 lb. lobster would yield about 1 lb. of meat, the same amount we send in our 6-pack lobster roll kits. We also recommend serving some classic New England side dishes with your cooked lobster, like delicious corn on the cob or red potatoes. And don’t forget dessert. Order a mouthwatering Labadie's Bakery Original Maine Whoopie Pie. Any of these items will turn an ordinary meal into an extraordinary tasting experience.
If a 4-6 lb. live lobster is more than your needs or maybe isn’t enough, shop other live lobster sizes here.

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.

Be cautious when handling lobsters, as their claws and tails can cause injury, especially if they arrive without bands.
