2 Canadian Lobster Tail, 5-6oz in size.

To Thaw

Thaw overnight in the fridge or place the sealed bag under cold water for 15 – 20 minutes or until thawed.

To Prepare

Cut down the centre of the tail with kitchen shears. Turn the tail over and gently crack down the centre between the swimmerets. Turn back over and gently pull the meat out on top of the shell. Rinse meat with fresh water. Grill, steam or bake at 350F until shell is bright red and meat is firm and opaque.

Fin's Facts

What do the #’s mean? Example 3-4, 4-5, 7, 8, etc. refers to the approx. weight per tail in ounces, the smaller the number the smaller the tail.

Atlantic versus Rock

• Atlantic tails (cold water) come from Canadian or US waters, they have a thicker shell and are believed to be sweeter in flavour
• Rock Tails (warm water) come from Caribbean waters (Cuba, Dominican, Haiti, etc.), they have a thinner shell and a higher ratio of meat to shell than Atlantic

Is Bigger better?

• Lobster tails come in varying sizes, the smaller tails tend to be more tender than large
