Can you purchase cooked lobster meat in our area or do we purchase whole lobster cook and remove meat?
Doris, the least expensive way is to buy whole lobsters, boil them, then remove the meat yourself. We used frozen lobster meat from “Main Lobster Now”; which we already had in the freezer. You can purchase fresh or frozen lobster meat through this company.
