The reason for the rubbery texture is the manufacturer's instructions for reheating. The only lobster that should ever go in boiling water is a live one. These frozen ones should be shelled cold, then either given a VERY quick zap in the microwave, or better yet eaten chilled but with hot butter on the side.

I would never have even considered eating the green stuff.

You can eat part of the lobster body, but you should have removed the poop chute first. Here in Nova Scotia, we still have the live lobster tanks in the grocery stores.

I'm not a lobster eater, but the green stuff?.. Scooter, your instinct should've said no way..😂

Glad to see you still making content. Your videos helped me get through college!

WGAT AR WE EATING??

Thanks for taking one for the team!

It is a myth they scream, but it's also a myth they do not feel pain.

My guess is that lobster thawed somewhere then frozen again and was spoiled. If it has any ammonia odor at all it’s history. I did get ripped off on frozen stone crab claws a few years back and learned a lesson. Good video as always.

Thank you very much for leaving SCOOTER out of the audio

Man i forgot about the lobster tanks in grocery stores. Thank for that little piece of nostalgia.

Leon the Lobster is not happy! 😂

Listen Wolfie, if cockroaches tasted as good as lobster, I'd be dippin them bad boys in clarified butter too!

Scooter's having a grand olt time with the title

"ive eaten some pretty bad stuff" .... hmm wonders whats next for Larry LOL oh and a big thank you for the seinfeld man hands clip at 3:30 LMAO

How much do I love lobster? Most years we travel from Ontario to southern Maine for a few weeks. Every other day I'll head to the lobsterman's house (garage) and purchase 7-8 fresh live culls (lobsters that have a blemish, missing claw etc.), take them back to the campsite and cook them up for my wife and I. Nothing tastes better. The sweetest meat you'll ever eat. Price per lb is usually less than ground beef.

Me and my dad overnighted 2 live lobsters straight from maine. They arrived alive and we ate them later that night. I remember correctly you're only supposed to eat the tail and the claws. Anyway we boiled ours and they came out amazing. Then again they were like $100 or something lol.

I really normally do not leave comments but I do have A LOT of experience with lobster... this is probably going to be lengthy but... Lobsters used to be so plentiful they were used as food for prisoners. I was a chef at a Country Club and on Saturday nights we did a lobster night. The members could have one lobster any way they picked, prepared by us. We had about 100 live lobsters delivered every week. My goto for killing was a chef knife held to the mouth right in front of the brain. With a quick jab with the other hand the lobster instantly dies. I know I know that lobsters do not scream but I think they feel. I was tired of my hands being pinced from the rapid curling of the tails as I plunged them into boiling water. The weight of the lobster determines the cook time. There are a lot of ways you can cook it. Some preferred broiling. That's relatively easy. We did a "bath" for them. In the same large cooking pot you put in a little bit of carrot, onion, and about 1/4 of a lemon, and about a cup of white cooking wine (salt and flavor). You let that boil for a while to let the flavors meld together. The carrot makes the lobster meat sweater, onion enhances flavor, and lemon almost always makes seafood MO' BETTA!"😁 I usually SLIGHTLY undercooked my lobsters because some residual cooking will take place as it was waiting to be taken to the table. If that lobster you had was already fully cooked and then frozen I'm sorry but that's for soup or something. I really avoid the green myself. Whenever there were live lobsters left there one of us chefs and cooks could take them home. For about 3 months I left with around at least 5 live lobsters. I had so many I grew sick of lobster for about a decade. Your lobster was waaaaaay overcooked and freezing a cooked lobster would not be on my list of things to try. Just adjust things for cook times and your mind might change, or it may not be your thing. I prefer snow crab as opposed to king crab. A lot disagree with that but I DO NOT want to live in a world where everyone agrees with me. That's just boring. Enjoy. Around me we have stores Shoprite or Price Chopper where live lobsters go on sale for $5.99/ lb. They usually weigh about 1.5-2 lb and cost about $12-$15. They usually offer free steaming but I wouldn't have my lobster cooked there. There are little restaurant areas of these stores where you could eat what foods you get there but I opted out of that.

Oh my Lord, you are a very brave man!

If you ever get the chance to try some live FRESH nova scotia lobster do it, because I promise you it's anything but rubbery, it's soft and slightly sweet. What you have is nothing like what we get fresh off the boats.

Came in swinging brotha 🎉

Dude I love your honesty. Fan forever.

Funner facts: Isopods (Woodlouse, or rolly pollys) are crustaceans and are closely related to lobsters than to cockroaches. They're the only crustacean to evolve fully to living on dry land. During the Carboniferous period 360-300 mya oxygen content was much higher than today (35% as opposed to our current 21%) as a result of this terrestrial arthropods were much larger than today, centipedes 2 m (6.6 foot) long and a spider cousin the size of a house cat. Also, the period gets it's name from the fact that this when most of our coal beds formed.

I had some for work yesterday and it was delicious!

A long time ago, no one wanted to eat lobster. It was considered a bottom feeder and no one wanted to eat them!! How times have changed.

Interesting video! I may hit up the frozen section later and check this out.

Live lobster is practically free -- if you can catch it yourself! Only half-joking. I spent a summer at my stepfather's home on the southern bank of the St. Martin River, over in the Eastern Shore of Maryland, back in the summers of 1989 and '90. At the time, blue crab meat was going for about $16 a pound (I think - may have been more!). But we could just go to our little pier on the river and catch Jimmies all afternoon with a chicken wing on a string and judicious use of a net. Was incredibly fun and we saved tons of money getting, cooking, and picking our own crabs... and ours were always well-seasoned with a shton of Old Bay because Delmarva Reasons.

Wow, these look perfect for pulling apart and turning into a lobster roll......I think I would just thaw it and create the lobster salad for the roll.....Thanks for this!

Hey brother glad you're back, I'm finna go catch up on your videos

Thank you. This video needed to be made.

I had one of these from Aldi about 6 monts ago and loved it. Ive never seen it again 😢

Prices vary, but last I checked you could buy two live lobsters for that price here in NH, and my supermarket will cook it for you at no charge.

You cant cook frozen seafood without thawing it out first. Comes out rubbery everytime. BUT, if you must, you can let it sit for about 30 mins and it will change the texture completely. Probably about 80% less rubbery if you let it cool off. The tail muscle relaxes. Of course its not as hot so make sure your butter is hot.

Love lobster! I worked a lot on the east coast and had them various way from boiled to broiled. I used to buy them here in Wisconsin for our New Year's Eve dinners, throwing them on the old Weber Kettle. I have a picture of me cooking ribeyes and tails when it was like 7 degrees outside. Still buy them for New Year's but just the small 6 ounce ones not like the two pounders that I'd get in the 1990's. My family's theory on this was you start out the New Year eating something really special because six months later, it might just be beans and wieners and you might just be thankful for that! With that said, I bought one of these lobsters in a box a few months ago on Amazon and I might just have to pull it out of the freezer and give it a try though I was thinking about just thawing it in the fridge instead of boiling it again. Thanks for your reviews sir. They are honest and down to earth and that's refreshing these days!!

Typo in the title; the video is great!

I refuse to let your cockroach reference affect my love of lobster 😂. I prefer lobster tails

WGAT AR WE EATING?? indeed. indeeeeed

Thanks Larry ❤

We love you, Wolfe

Also the correct way to cook lobster is to boil it in extremely salty water. And remove the rubber bands before you boil it. On the east coast we take the ocean water and add more salt the boil the lobster in that. Obviously this is better done outdoors so your house doesnt smell like boiled ocean 😅😊😅

If I want fresh lobster, I just go to Winn Dixie and pick a couple out of the live tank. They even steam them for me for free if I don't want to boil them myself.

Thank you for not dying

Good review , thanks for sharing , God bless !

Thank you TheWolfePit you help me a lot.

Thanks for trying it.

Thanks, that was a good video!

I still want to know who first looked at a lobster and said, that look good lets eat it.

Thanks Wolfie I needed this today

I found/find it Fascinating that Lobster used to be considered "poor people's food"🃏

It's like chewing rubber bands when you reheat a lobster.

WGAT AR WE EATING!!! I had no idea this lobster in a box thing existed.

best lobster I ever had, was eating a LOBSTER ROLL at a port side place in BAR HARBOR MAINE.. not a great restaurant..but a sorta cafe at waterside. I need to go back there.. YUM!!!! THAT WAS PROBABLY COOKED AT THE SAME TIME IT WAS CAUGHT THEN FLASH FROZEN TO PRESERVE IT AT PEAK FLAVOR

Certified Gold!!!!!

Reheating it made it rubbery. Those precooked lobsters are best to just thaw and make lobster rolls with.

If there is ever a storm locally, it's worth checking the local beaches for stunned lobsters and crabs on the beach. My father and I ended up with about 12 lobsters and 4 crabs a couple of years ago in the UK when we decided to go out on a whim. Sounds like the instructions made you over cook it dude. If in doubt, shred it with melted butter, lemon and parsley and have it in a nice brown bread sandwich.

Well, technically speaking, screaming is air escaping 🤣

I think ol' Mr. Wolfepit had one too many cocktails while loading this video....And I don't mean shrimp 😅😅😅

Forgot to pull the poop trail from the tail meat. And NO you weren't supposed to eat the main body from the headshell.

Eat the tail and claws and cook the rest to make stock. Then make rice porridge out it but make it thick. I've had that in a Japanese restaurant and it was delicious!

Haven’t watched these in awhile always love that your brave enough to eat some of this

You had me at whole cooked lobster in a box. I went down this road at Krogers before. I have to get the popcorn ready before I start this. Ok, we the people, are ready 🙃

Wow, you eat lobster like a Savage. I don't eat the green stuff, and I would have never eaten the guts. You are my hero

The only lobster I've had that wasn't rubbery/tough was when I bought just the tails, opened them up and broiled them with some garlic butter. I wasn't a big lobster fan at that point and was surprised that it was really good, I wouldn't eat lobster any other way now.

Love your descriptions. A couple things I've tried and like. Both traditional British fare found on Amazon. Steak and kidney pie and pork pie.

In Newfoundland lobster is fairly easy to get, So grocery stores always have live lobsters and crabs

Dip it in butter, it'll make it better. The world would have ZERO problems if we lived by this rule!

Dollar tree used to have a lobster in a can when I worked there like 10 years ago

Wild caught from sustainable fisheries! 🤣

You had me laughing on this one!

I thought this was Leon the lobster at first, my wee man, I'd have unsubscribed had it been? Lol enjoy man x

Wolfe.Nearly a million subscribers…take Mrs.Wolfe out to a high scale seafood place.

Thank you Larry very insightful

I'm just astonished that it is exactly as described on the box label, an actual complete frozen lobster. I'd guess that the reheating by boiling might be what made the tail meat extra-rubbery, over-cooking seems to be one of those things that can do it.

Lobster was nice to eat before I became deathly allergic to all crustaceans, but over the years I've realize their just big "Sea Bugs". We still have a grocery store chain that still has a fresh fish section with a live lobster tank.

I may not watch all your vids anymore but it does make me happy to see you upload often

When I was a kid Krogers and I think food Town in Toledo Ohio had frozen lobsters from in a plastic tube, you snip off the top and slide it into boiling water, it is where I learned to like lobster

👷..THE ORANGE NETTING REMINDS ME OF A CONSTRUCTION SITE.

for lobster tails, One way to make em less tough is to shred the meat. The reason it's so hard is cause of the the fibres of the muscles are tied in a knot. So shredding it makes a big difference. edit: obviously the cooking makes a difference too. What I mean to say is that even a fresh lobster cooked just right might still have a tough tail for some people (my father has issues with any food that's a bit though) and when I told him to shred the tail he was doubtfull but he did notice a big difference.

Now I have to go watch the Mermaid Lobster scene....lol

Since it's already cooked, I wonder if it would be more palatable if you only thawed it and cut it up (just the tail and claw meat please) and prepared it in a lobster roll, rather than trying to reheat it and serve it warm. But I'm not willing to gamble $22 to find out.

I'm not a lobster fan either. In the few times I had "Surf&Turf" meal with lobster tail and steak, I traded a buddy my lobster tail for his steak. Being a Native Floridian I love crab, shrimp, oysters and other seafood. To me lobster has a sharp aftertaste I don't care for.

beautiful nails, man ✌

You like lobster? I love the taste of butter too

That looked decent for what it was, I love lobster but don't have it too often, it is a very rich meat and a little goes a long way.

😮🎉😂 love the reviews respect from 205 pisces black alpha male Birmingham Alabama

Damn I thought this was Leon for a second. My heart sank. 😢

been tempted on these, glad you did it.

WGAT happened? Did Scooter sabotage your video title? lol In all seriousness, keep up the awesome videos and stay awesome.

Bro, congrats on 888,000 subscribers.

Kitchen Tip: NEVER eat any shellfish like scallops, clams, lobster, mussels, etc when it's been frozen first. Frozen shellfish rarely has the appropriate taste & texture it does fresh. Either eat it freshly caught and prepared or go with beef or poultry instead. When it comes to fresh lobster... After cooking it... Take a rolling pin a put the lobster legs under it. Gently roll it over the leg to extract the lobster meat out of the legs. It's the sweetest meat on the entire lobster.

ahhh good ol 'wgat ar we eating' i may not understand what a wgat is, but i agree

LOL you're so funny 😂 it did look rubbery . I don't like lobster either. I don't like Flavor of it. I've cooked it at home and tried it in some nice restaurants I just don't like it. I'll take crab legs any day. I love all Seafood except Lobster. I enjoyed this video see you in the next one😊

"Hey lunch lady!!"❤

Now just imagine space lobsters dipping human corpses in butter and eating them...

in Canada we have a grocery store called Loblaws and they sell Presidents Choice Frozen Lobster Roll Kits, man what a travesty those are. these days most grocery stores that sell live lobsters will cook it for you while you shop so you dont have to when you get home.

I never eat that green stuff. I know that some people consider that a sacrilege, but to my mind, if I was eating yogurt and saw a bunch of green stuff in it, I am not eating it. You do you, I’ll do me.

WGAT AR

East Coaster here, its not illegal to use scissors on a lobster, so no shade will be thrown your way!

In Europe around Christmas they show up in boxes in grocery stores for a price between 20 and 25 euro.
